PG's top moments of the week - Millions of new games...
|

Every week, Pocket Gamer provides a weekly digest of the most important and popular stories from these digital pages.

It has been a bumper week for new mobile games.

There was card-based roguelike Card Dungeon (iOS) the sadly disappointing Beatbuddy HD (iOS), twin-stick maze game Inferno 2 (iOS), and board game Galaxy Trucker (iPad).

And there was Kickstarted Viking adventure The Banner Saga (iOS), super nostalgic card battler Pokemon TCG Online (iPad), same-screen blaster Astro Duel (iOS), and anti-bullying game Spirits of Spring (iOS).

Not to forget adult swim puzzler Adventure Xpress (iOS), Hunted Cow's ambitious strategy game Russian Front (iPad and Android), PlayStation import Entwined: Challenge (iOS and Android), and Zachtronics's Ironclad Tactics (Android).

Assassins Creed

Phew! Luckily we've got our best games on iOS and Android pieces if you want to cut out the fat and get to the good stuff, fast.

Elsewhere, we went hands-on with a bunch of games in soft-launch, including Square Enix's Silent Scope-alike Hitman: Sniper, mobile MOBA Vainglory, and surprise Ubisoft game Assassin's Creed Identity.

And fresh from EGX and TGS we've got previews of The Room 3, Space Pirate Popet, Calvino Noir, Never Gone, The Adventures of Bertram Fiddle, Rad Boarding, and Omega Agent.

In the world of handhelds, Super Smash Bros for Nintendo 3DS came out on Friday. Last week we shared our opinion (it's good) and this week we've shared some tips.

We've got a monster FAQ for Smash newbies, and guides to all the secret characters and hidden stage.

RGB Express

We also looked ahead to October, with a list of our most anticipated 3DS and Vita games and our must-play mobile games, and looked back to September with our ten best iOS games and our favourite Android games.

And we found the first script for the new Tetris movie and reviewed Frozen Synapse Prime on the Vita.

Plus, Hulk Hogan is taking over Crazy Taxi and the Angry Birds movie is giving me nightmares. Gosh, we all need a bloody good holiday.

Around Steel Media

This week at 148Apps featured reviews of card runner (for lack of a better term) Monsu, Card Dungeon, Galaxy Trucker, and more. Check it all out in FULL COLOR at 148Apps.
