Pocket Gamer's best mobile games of February giveaway - The Warlock of Firetop Mountain

It's that time of the month again, when Pocket Gamer gives away a bounty of codes for last month's absolute best games to our community, the App Army.

For those unaware, that's our diehard band of mobile gaming enthusiasts. In exchange for their critical thoughts, we give them codes for unreleased games on a weekly basis and you can join in the fun by simply signing up on Facebook.

That's a requirement to get a chance at a code in the giveaway, but more on that later. Let's kick things off.

The Warlock of Firetop Mountain

Remember when you were a kid, and a game involved writing up a character sheet, reading a book, and rolling dice to perform every single action? Well, The Warlock of Firetop Mountain was originally one of those books by Fighting Fantasy.

But it's been brought back in a revised format by the master of mobile gamebooks, Tin Man Games. This time around, the world is brought to life with wonderful 3D visuals, and the combat requires strategy. You have to consider your positioning and attack at the right moment.

The wonderful writing and artwork is all still there though, so don't worry. And you'll still roll dice occasionally.

At review, we gave it a Silver Award and said: "The Warlock of Firetop Mountain is a brilliant story wrapped in a great game, and you should definitely give it a go"

Okay, I'll give it a go

Not so fast! First you have to sign up to the App Army here, then write your name as it appears on Facebook in the comments beneath this post. We'll then select the lucky winners over the next few days.

We only have iOS codes for this one, but there's plenty of Android codes for other games coming soon so don't despair. We'll be back tomorrow with a brand new game so keep checking back at 5PM GMT.

What's the App Army?

The App Army is Pocket Gamer's very own community of mobile game experts. Each week, we provide them with a bunch of free codes and early access to the hottest upcoming games so they can provide their thoughts in features like this. We also host regular community-driven events with them in mind like tournaments, giveaways, and multiplayer evenings. To join, simply follow this link to the page on Facebook and request access. We'll get you in right away!
