This week's mobile games are packed with power, along with an oasis of good vibes and fun. Motorsport Manager Mobile 2 is about Formula 1 racing, Strike Team Hydra is a tactical RPG set in a futuristic world, and The Walking Dead: A New Frontier continues Clementine's story amid a zombie post-apocalypse. Very good!
Motorsport Manager Mobile 2
The first Motorsport Manager delivered a strategic yet accessible version of Formula 1 racing, and its sequel perfects that concept into something even better. As a team manager, in Motorsport Manager Mobile 2 it's up to you to choose the right factors, invest in research and development to improve the machines, and decide on race tactics and pit-stop strategy. The game's refinements include detailed driver statistics and vehicle research and development, as well as more tactical options that add tire variety and the option to boost engines and fuel consumption. Developed by Playsport Games, Motorsport Manager Mobile 2 is available on iOS and Android.
Pigeon Wings
Pigeon Wings: The birds in Pigeon Wings don't mess around: they are the best pilots, and only one is good enough to save the city. In this fast-paced side-scrolling game, you control the pigeon's altitude by tilting the device forward and backward, trying to avoid hazards like enemy fire and buildings. There's no doubt it draws inspiration from Flappy Bird's spirit: simple gameplay mechanics, minimalist visuals, and a difficulty curve that will keep drawing you back for another try. Developed by I. Schiefelbein & K. Hattori, Pigeon Wings is available exclusively on iOS.
Strike Team Hydra
Wave Light Games moves from the fantasy worlds of its games Demon's Rise to the far future with Strike Team Hydra, a tactical RPG that puts you in command of an elite team that harnesses the power of Sethari bioengineering. To do that, you must use your characters' special abilities and the terrain to defeat waves of enemies and complete objectives. The game uses an action point system, challenging you to balance movement, attacks, and special abilities with a finite amount of AP each turn. Developed by Wave Light Games, Strike Team Hydra is available on iOS and Android.
The Walking Dead: A New Frontier
The acclaimed adventure game series The Walking Dead by Telltale Games returns with its third season, where you now guide a new character named Javier through the zombie post-apocalypse alongside Clementine. Compared to other adventure games, The Walking Dead: A New Frontier focuses less on puzzle-solving and more on character interaction and the emotional weight of the decisions you make. If you've completed the previous games of the series, you can carry over some of your choices through your Telltale account. Developed by Telltale Games, The Walking Dead: A New Frontier is available on iOS and Android.
Who Lurks
Who Lurks (Free Game): It's hard to find a good game for when you're at family or friend gatherings... but Who Lurks fits the bill. It's like the detective/mystery board game Cluedo mixed with John Carpenter's classic movie The Thing. The game is set on a spaceship, and one player is a shape-shifting alien who must eliminate the rest of the crew. Players must figure out who the alien is before it's too late. Developed by Hybrid Humans, Who Lurks is available on iOS and Android.
