Title: must have android games
Post by: Jarhead0331 on September 03, 2013, 09:08:58 AM
I just got a shiny new samsung galaxy s4 (yes, it kicks ass). Problem is, I have no idea what the best games for the device are.  Any suggestions?

to start, check out the Small General Games

demo:   https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smallgeneraldemo
original (generic):  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smallgeneralfull
eastern front:  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sgeasternfrontfull

Yugoslavia 1941 is pretty good, too but you'll be wishing for a bigger screen:  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dk.yugo41

Oh yeah...

There are some goods games that are hard to find on the iOS (though they may have been ported already).

Like:
Cyber Knights (cyberpunk turn based RPG)
Templar Assault (pretty much Space Hulk++)

And Knights of Pen&Paper (which is now also available on the PC thanks to Paradox).

Tpek, the S4 is an Android phone

I know, I was saying they might not be on the iTunes store. They are available for him on the Google Play store however :D

This looks great, but it does not look like it is compatible with the Galaxy S4.  :(

I just dipped my toe outside the Apple ecosphere and ordered a 9" Android-based Nook HD+ (refurbished because I'm a cheap bastidge, though not a farging ice hole) so I'll be interested in what gaming goodness is out here in the android wilds.
