Android non-mainstream games ? - General Questions and Answers

every site that I go to with game recommendations has the same crap all over again. it's like all the games are in this form:
level, there are 3 stars. you need to get 3-star play to pass the level with highest score.
I DO NOT want that, and everywhere I go to for games, everyone is recommending that. Piggy adventure, Shoot the apple, Annoying Birds, etc.
Android and the accompanied hardware are capable enough to run extremely extensive games, like some adventures and such, and I cant find those.
what I actually want:
A game that is long-hours playable, that has any kind of the in-game development, and that is not "in levels" type of game.
I like mystery kind of games, like Room escape games (finished all of Android REG, which are few and mostly retarded), maybe some RPG games that have a little bit more graphic than those "pokemon" type games.
some career games, maybe where you develop your car/character/vehicle but all that I played become monotonous after time.
"Defender" Game is an example of how it should be, and how they should have added stuff when you reach 300+ level. After you kill the first Dragon Lord and 2 Pig-man (at the same time) the game becomes boring.
Are there any BIG games for Android .. ? you know the feeling when you played Resident evil 1 and 2 on PSX, and you played it for hours and days, trying to figure out stuff, and it was sooo good that you wanted more and more .. ? (now that Im writing this I see that PC also lacks that kind of intellectual games and all you do is kill bunch of stuff for 6 hours of a single day and that's it)

look at these games:
Sacred Odyssey: Rise of Ayden*, Eternal Legacy* - RPG,
Samurai II: Vengeance - action
Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X*, Winds of Steel - flight simulator
FIFA 10, FIFA 12 or PES 11*, PES 12 - sport/football
or maybe GTA 3 for android.
Maybe you'll like sth of these games?
*cant find in store

I Will try them all , thanks. I dont pay for anything so it doesnt matter if it's in stores or not (Im from Serbia, and lots of software and content are unavailable even If I wanted to Pay, I only payed for Adobe Design cause I work for foreigners and cant have final products made with pirated versions )
On another topic - Does Anyone remember Desert strike and the Strike series for Genesis/MD2 ... ? It would be avesome if that kind of games were for android, A simple helicopter you could play for months, cause of various levels n stuff... ?

Ever tried Zenonia?

For games from psx u can use emulator like FPSE. Im using it to play eg. Metal slug or tekken 3.
However i have XPlay and it has build-in emulator.
Sent using r800i with DoomKernel v11 (1.21ghz)

can you configure controls on a HW keyboard when using emulator ? cause I have Desire Z, and that would be awesome, Emulation is the great idea!

Yes. In FPSE u can go to setting/input/hardware keys and configure it. Im using XPlay ps buttons to play...

Wow man, Im in for some awesome gaming! Android game pallete really sucks knowing how it is a powerfull platform (stronger than 2003 average PC's in pure FLOPS power) and there is NOTHING good to play. Emulation is the way to go.

I've found Dead Space quite a good game once you get into it.

You have to aim at the door and press the glowing blue hexagon on your back, this should freeze the doors. Worked for me.

What is your favorite Game on the TF??

What are you wasting hours playing on your TF?
Hands down, Gun Bros. Great looking game on the TF, runs smooth and the controls are snappy.
I love Robo defense on my Evo but it's just not the same on the TF, even the HD version so it's my phone game of choice.
I'm looking for other tower defense or starcraft style games if anyone has suggestions. Hope to have warcraft one working using aDosbox emulator. =]
Probably a bit too boring for some but I like WordFeud!
Besides, since I don't have much time, WordFeud works really well.
just installes crystal defender. not hd but since I like towe defense game so it's cool. games from hexage.net like radiant hd, robotek hd, etc are also lovely. last but not least I love gameboid emulator, runs almost all popular gba game flawlessly
Definitely Plants vs Zombies HD. Look up the apk on Google. Or Paradise Island. Both are pretty addicting

If your looking for a TD game try out GRave Defense HD, my personal favorite time wasters have been Backbreaker THD, Fruit Ninja THD, and Riptide GP(and yes im apparently a whore to the TegraZone)
Backbreaker THD, Samurai II THD, PVZ

Just purchased battleheat great so far and it has tegrazone graphics... giving you your first thanks.
+1 to Battleheart....great game and well worth the money! I got nervous after doing the manual update to 3.1 and the game ran into issues (loading). Great to see the developer was quick with the update to fix the issue, back to my 6+ hour game.
+1 Paradise Island...was a great game at first now it is starting to become kind of a chore. I have filled up my allotted land and have 3 levels to go until the next section is unlocked for purchase.
Robotek, Brain Cube HD, Plants vs. Zombies HD (even though I have beat it 3x on other platforms), and Nano Panda.
All those game look amazing on a Tablet.
My fav is crazy snowboard. U can even use ur android phone as a controller and the tablet as the game screen.

Stupid Zombies
Plants Vs Zombies
Zombie Defence
Samurai Vengeance

and Spiderman HD but no now it force closes all the time on 3.1
Dungeon defenders is amazing on the TF. Also pocket legends is pretty cool if you like mmo's
I play the crap out of gun bros...just wish they would update to allow for bros already, it gets rough with just me and the gimpy stock bro thats only good for eating bullets and taking dirt naps.

I love the free app of the day on amazon. I just got plant vs zombies....that game is pretty damn fun. Actually I haven't purchased any apps yet. I guess it's true what they say about android users...not wanting to pay for apps.
mini squadron rocks. I played first the lite version but now I have the 2 paid versions.

Could someone describe the control scheme of Battleheart for me?
I've tried games like Gun Bros and Dungeon Defenders but I just can't get over how the analog "sticks" are implemented on a touch screen. A pity b/c those games otherwise look amazing but I can't get over the controls.

I hadn't heard of this one before. I'll have to check it out when I get home tonight.
http://market.android.com/details?id=com.ezone.Snowboard
No one has said Majesty yet!?
It's a fantastic RTS game, albeit a little basic upon first or second try. Once you really get into it, there's a ton of strategy. Not to mention it looks fantastic on the transformer and is super easy to navigate around and play (functionality-wise.)
Spectral Souls is a full fledged console game (100+ hours of gameplay).

Games Discussion Thread

I was about to create this thread at general discussion but i guess it belongs here, we can share recommendations of games and talk about performance on our devices.
Just downloaded the new ZENONIA 4https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gamevil.zenonia4.global
Love the series and 4 is the first episode with HD graphics, which woud be awesome if it didn't ran so sluggish on x10 i'm on vmcms 2.3.4 rom, anyone on different roms had a better experience?
I'll leave a recommendation, Dungeon Raid https://market.android.com/details?id=com.fireflame.dungeonraid it's an addictive "trace puzzle" (don't know how to describe it) with a fantasy rpg theme, match three or more icons of the same type trying to draw the longest line, the mechanic is used to attack monsters or defend, collect gold, potions, very easy to get into but deep. This is an excellent time killer and a great value if you enjoy this type of games.
Need for speed shift and reckless racing work very well
Xperia x10(Feralabs Rom) After trying all roms it was my Fav.
Now on the RAZR.

My experience is that zenonia 4 runs sluggish on any rom that uses a modified stock kernel. I've only had smooth experience on a rom using the cm7 fxp kernel. FXP 10* or miui dark edition based off cm7 are basically the only two running it smoothly

EA NFS Hot Pursuit and EA Real Racing 2 running perfectly. The most awesome graphics to embrace a smartphone game. Ever.
Others: Modern Combat 2, Splinter Cell, WC Cricket Fever
MIUI 2.2.3 overclocked to 1152 MHZ.
I'm playing Asplhat 5 and Rainbow Six right now.
Rom : Oodie's MIUI prime x
Asphalt runs fine however Rainbow six lags a lot how do I improve it's performance? If you're gonna ask me to overclock then please tell me how do it because I don't know how to.

edit: nevermind I figured how to and it doesn't help.
Does Shadowgun runs well? it seems to be the most graphically intense android game.

Thanks for the info, it's been a long time since i've tested fxp cm7 but i may give it another try.
try thgo v14.0 it is best gaming rom
what you got at the Play Store (i'll never get used to this name) sale this week?
i've gone crazy, purchased Cut The Rope, Shadowgun, Quell Reflect, They Need to be Fed, World of Goo and Osmos HD there are more games and apps available for very cheap prices, don't know for how long.
Osmos - you are an amoeba-like blob that moves by ejecting it's mass and must consume other blobs that are smaller than you, as you eat you grow bigger and can assimilate bigger ones, unless they assimilate you first. The challenge is controlling your movement in a way that you don't waste your mass and there are a series of tasks you must complete. A creative and clever game with very nice presentation, it runs fine on x10 with occasional stutters but no bigger issues.
Cut the Rope - this one doesn't require much introduction, it was a huge smash on iOS and it's quite sucessful on android as well. several puzzles in which you must cut ropes in order to feed a small lizard with candy, cute and with great physic effects, adicting and well worth the cheap price.
They Need to be Fed - looks like feeding is a recurring theme with those indie games, this one is a simple yet cool 2D puzzle platformer, traverse a series of obstacles involving gravity and collect diamonds to feed a creature in the end, one of those masochistic games in which you die tons of times until you master the levels but it's nice and addicting if you're into meat boy or similar.
Quell reflect - a good surprise, it's a puzzle game where ou must guide a drop of water through a series of obstacles, flicking your finger starts the motion which can't be stopped, sounds tense but it's a relaxing game with a nice presentation. Oh, no feeding here.
World of Goo - a pretty popular game widely available on PC and Wii, gameplay fits very well with touch screens and performs fine on x10, you must guide a bunch of black blobs of goo through the scenery by creating structures, you touch a goo and swipe it to the position and connect them. the physics can be a bit unforgiving but the game is very well done.
Shadowgun I have not tested yet because it downloads a lot of stuff and I couldn't finish yet.

how an i install nfs shift and hot pursuit on ma xperia x10 rooted running on 2.3.3
I guess shadowgun is too much for our old X10, it only shows the opening sequence but when it starts loading the first level the phone reboots.
will keep it for when i purchase a new phone.

Runs perfectly on Cobrato MIUI. I just reboot the phone before playing - it frees up all the RAM and kills unnecessary background tasks, and RR2 is buttery smooth.
I've been using feravolt's V12 Enhanced Edition and of all the stock roms I've tryed it's the best for games performace, there's an optional boost gpu script but even without using it there's a noticeable improvement. However, playing games will eat your battery even faster than normal.
Kairosoft's new game Dungeon Village has a lite version, it's a cool and addictive sim game as usual, but it's kind of a casual ripoff of another game called Majesty (available for both PC and Android), where you manage a fantasy town that must attract adventurers to it. Majesty can get brutal in the later levels, I have no idea how Dungeon Village will evolve but it looks much more simple.
And of course, Angry Birds Space was unleashed upon us.

I'm not so sure Neo.Emu supports the people that made the game. This game app is made by SNK Playmore.
It's more than a simple port of the original game. Xperia Play Optimized, full Play button control, 16:9 support (it really just stretches the image ), old school display scan lines, anti-aliasing, bluetooth multiplayer, etc.
Support your local skateshop. :good: I bought it because I can download it to both of my Android devices and enjoy multiplayer. Not exactly sure it is worth the $6.99, but it is definitely fun. Will post screenshots later if you guys would like.
Wait, this is Xperia Play Optimized? Ohhh will get, I love Metal Slug.

It is so much better to play full ported games then emulators. They run at full speed and with everything intact (sound, graphics, etc)
Not saying emulation is bad (I play with emus most days) but it's use is for games which can't be played natively, for getting a more original feel to a certain game if its changed for the worst in the porting, or for playing your legally owned game copies.
Emulation is mostly looked upon as illegal. This metal slug 3 is an arcade game, who here has a old neo-geo metal slug machine that can legally make a Rom for use with mame or other? Anyone?
Sorry to moan but hate seeing comments like this all the time. We need to support developers or the gaming business go's bust and new games won't be made.

Great on Tablet S as well, multiplayer is very smooth, no lag on either device when playing linked. Only complaint on Tablet S is that , when using a DS3, R3/L3 is jump not X
LAGS like hell on my XP running stock 2.3.3 , even after a fresh boot and running Supercharger Super 512hp and engine flush.
Tips?
The game starts like a thunder, but after a few minutes it becomes unplayable...
THE LAG IS TERRIBLE!!!
We need an update right now to fix it, many of us love this game... And $6.99 was really expensive for a very laggy game!!!
WHY GOD, WHYYY!!! :-(

Virtual pool is pretty good but I don't know about pocket frogs
Stick cricket and tennis are spot on!
Granny Smith is rather good. Im also playing Virtua Tennis which is decent
Although this is a great note, I am really pissed that some of the games are really pixelated and unclear I wish there was a way we could make display or resolution smaller
for games
To name about 1/2 of the games I have installed...
Angry Birds - love it on 10" of screen
aTilt 3D Labyrinth - Reminds of the real ones I had as a kid. lol, I never could make it to the end though back then!
3D Bowling - better bowling on a tablet than I am IRL If I only had an S-Pen to guide my aim in real bowling.
Crystal Defenders - life long Final Fantasy fan...
Dark Meadow - THIS perhaps is the most fun I've had on a game for a tablet.
Dead Trigger - Really is amazing what a tablet can do and I play with a PS3 controller
Eve of The Genesis - Had gotten this originally for my Epic4G but never played it. Started playing it on my tablet!
Fruit Ninja - Slicing fruit with an stylus sword! :victory:
NFS Hot Pursuit - not as good as the real game on my computer, but still looks good on the tablet.
Mass Effect Infiltrator - it was 25 cents, how could I say no? Looks good, plays well.
Monopoly - forget setting up the real board, this is the future right here!
Pac Man Championship - Sort of reminds me of the pac man arcade tables from my childhood. S-Pac-Man!
Peggle - S-Peggle!
Pinball Pro - not much to say here. it's pinball.
Pool Master - with realistic s-cue!
Quell Reflect - was free on Amazon. Puzzle game that's easy to play with the s-pen
Scrabble - had it since my Epic4G. Still works.
Shadowgun - It was free, compliments of my Galaxy SIII so I loaded it on to my tablet. Much better than playing it on the phone!
Sonic 4 Ep2 - It was free on the Samsung store. Retro gaming... Not my favorite, but it looks good graphically!
Symphony of Eternity - old school RPG that like EotG, looks good and plays decently.
Temple Run - I've heard of other devices getting lag playing this. It's lagless on the note. Decent repetitve time burner.
TurboFly - Had a pay for version for 2 years still works. There's a full free version on the Samsung store. Wipeout/FZero clone. Worth getting.
Virtua Tennis - It was free on the Samsung store. Not really a tennis fan, but still worth grabbing imo.
WIsh my gameloft games worked on the tablet, but they don't, and they refuse to assist me, so I don't buy from them anymore. Would be another 13 games I'd have to list.
some of mine:
bad piggie
angry birds space
agent dash
age of zombies
air attack hd
cytus (best music game ever!)
dead space
mass effect
eternity warriors 2
cut the rope experiments
fantasy defend
fifa12
Frontline commando
GTA3
hot persuit
judge dredd (best free 3rd person shooting game for me)
max payne
minecraft
niva
riptide
seven stars 3d
to-fu hd

Nova 3, n64oid, asphalt because it was .25c, then the basic chess, checkers, glow hockey, ping pong...

lol, I've probably used my Note 10.1 (that I got in late August) for gaming more than I used my PSP that I got in 2007. Since I paired up PS3 controller, it's so much more fun to play games like Dead Trigger. Come to think of it, with the controller, and the adapter for HDMI out... Hmm. Nah, I'll leave my tablet gaming for tablet gaming, and consoles for the TV. Phosphor should make a Kinect version of Dark Meadow though. >.> Although I guess it would be best done on the Wii/WiiU
and now realizing I never put my NES/SNES roms on the tablet. >.>

I have many games on my tablet and most of them work well. Zapix, you have my style so you have many of the games I have; except dark meadow... It's free so I got it,
If I had to select 5 of my favourite games:
Granny Smith: It was on sale the other day
Spirit HD: Neat game, real addictive and works better with the pen than with the finger
World of Goo
ME Infiltrator
Tile Storm HD
JetPack Joyride: This requires special mention so I'll create a separate thread for this

Omg dude I love the choices, can you please add some more options .
Just got a ps3 controller, currently playing N.O.V.A. 3, GTA3, Dead Trigger,Dark Knight, Bards Tale, SNes, Fpse, etc.. also smaller games like angry birds, cut the rope, granny smith, Drawable, and so on. I wish I could play MC3 and O&C but nooo.
Sixaxis kicks ass! Although I have issues with Dead Trigger and GTA. If someone have a flawless touch profile for DT I'd appreciate it, the only thing wrong with GTA is that if I press L2 or R2 the controller no longer works, could be bug but other than that Everything works flawlessly.

Dead Trigger supports controllers natively, I have no problems with it. Just enable controllers under the settings in the game.

What are everyones favorite games for emulators such as N64oid, SNESoid, fpse, etc?
I have been loving mario kart and super smash brothers as well as star fox on N64oid.
Joe and Mac is a classic on SNES.

lol, yep it all works, Not something one expects since we're all so used to games having only touch controls. Seeing they can make native controls... Doesn't that make you wish they did that more often? xD
I just recently got Shadowgun, but really haven't played it, and I never did check if there are native controls... It's also by Madfinger though, so I'm guessing there probably are. Need more games with native controller settings!
Not sure how much if a difference it makes (I've run it on both and haven't seen any) , but if you're rooted, you can also run a little tweak to up the graphic settings from HIGH to ULTRA. I don't think I've seen any difference, but figured I'd mention it.
Here's a site explaining it.

Oh I already set graphics to ultra but thanks. But yes definitely need more games that support controllers nova would be great, I learned how to set it with the SNES emulator just a few mins ago, next I'll search to do that with fpse if its possible. I don't have shadow gun if it supports controller I may buy it. I'm running out of memory though.

I really want the n64 emulator but its ad invested, that's a petpeeve of mine. I may get some type of ad block but I'll say my fav games so far is tekken 3 (fpse), super Mario allstars (SNES) and that's it really just started out lol.

Good Non-Casual Games?

Anyone recommend some good games for serious gaming? I mostly play console games, but I'm wanting to take advantage of the awesome new hardware in my pocket with some good games. I don't mean things like Angry Birds and Temple Run and Fruit Ninja. Any advice?

Usually when I wanna look for good/cool new apps or games I go on the Google Play store website on my home PC and use the various search functions on the Play site and can sit there for like a hour just looking at apps and reading reviews/descriptions hahaa.
Yeah, that's what I've tried and am trying to avoid. I can only see so many clones of Fruit Ninja before I want to punch myself.

Seems to be the way with everything anymore, doesn't it?
Just tell me this: Can I still advance, albeit slowly, without purchasing things? I hate those games where you get so far and you realize that you have no hope without dropping cash.

Battleheart like above poster mentioned is a pretty fun game - you can squeeze a bit of fun out of that one for sure. But it would look at Heroes of Order and Chaos, definitely a very competitive and challenging game. Basically its the phone version of DoTA, LoL, and HoN.

Shadowgun dead zone has kept me quite entertained thus far you should give it a try if you haven't already

Is a really fun game. Kinda reminds me of Morrowind to an extent.

hands down one of the many games I can play for hours on by. Got it on all my devices to transfer gold and items.
Day 45. I'm still playing this.
Here's a youtube vid of the game:
If all the Modern Combat or NOVA games were compatible with the S4 I would suggest those, I have really enjoyed their campaigns. Unfortunately only NOVA 3 and Modern Combat 3/4 are compatible -_-

+1 on Bards Tale, definitely one of the best games ever on Android. It's one of the few games that's actually a full fletched game and not just something you play for five minutes on the toilet lol.

I loaded every single version lol. Its not so hard. Spoof your S4 to a different device model so that the android store thinks its such, and then it will let you install applications for those devices. Lets you also get tablet versions of apps and also those really old ones that they are aging out of the market.
