Browser Games indies news

Not much in the indies browser game world this week

I saw an interesting one at Indiegames.com, king of bee. It’s a game insired by old school text adventures and “badly translated story material from Japanese NES and Genesis games” (quote from indiesgames.com)

You can finish it pretty quickly, I actually made peace with the king of bee, I haven’t tried killing him though, tell me what you did in the comment if you want.

Infinity blade 2 at 0.99$

Remember a post I made a post about Infinity blade being at 0.99$ (well now it’s free lol) the sequel is now getting the same ridiculous price.

And this one is for fun (A parody, NSFW)

RPG

A really nice RPG caught my attention it’s called 9thdawn. It’s 2.99$ and it’s for a good cause, a small team of indie dev. It’s a massive world to play and the control might be a bit tricky but it’s definitely a nice game if you’re into RPG.

Baldurs Gate get pulled out of the app store

Remember when I wrote about Baldur’s gate on the app store, it’s seem they pulled it out of the apps store because of some contractual problem. You can check the news here.

Baldur’s gate

A week ago I wrote that Bladur’s gate will be soon available on Ipad and We got more news that it will support multiplayer and should cost less than 10$.

Rotten tangerine (iOS & android)

I came across a really nice indie mobile game, it’s called Rotten tangerine, it’s available on android and iphone.

The goal is to prevent your tangerine to go bad, by tapping on the rotten one good tangerine will appear. However, sometime monsters appear and they will attack you tangerine to make them rot.

Worm is back

I usually don’t review pc game but I was surprise that they’re a new worm game coming, on pc & console. It’s call worm revolution, here the video footage :

It’s look good, they used a new graphic engine and added 3d. This one will definitely go on my wish list.

Epic sax game

I don’t know what to say about this game, it almost could go in a bad game review but it’s too original to do so. From indie game :

“In Epic Sax Game, players attempt to replicate Epic Sax Guy’s solo using six keyboard keys. After practicing, you can record a studio version and join a jam session before attempting the toughest challenge of all: a ten-hour YouTube video, performed live.”

Well I tried it and let say it music is not my strength but it’s definitely fun to try but I won’t take my chance on the 10 hours jam …

Clash of kingdoms – new patch

A new patch was released and what caught my eye is the new school system. The school system allows player of 10000 or more dev point to join or create a school and learn skill from the member of the school. Basically you need to have 3 student per teacher, the student can asks for advice, review to gain some insight and contribution to the school, the teacher gain some has well but less. When a hero have 400 of insight you can make him learn a skill.

Click on the icon that look like the stroke of genius skill

After you will be able to choose what skill you want to learn.

There more to it but that really the basic to get a skill, if you want all the details go check the forum thread and if you want to optimize your school to get the best out of it check my following post.

They’re other thing in this update that interesting like the duel or new terrain effect, but the school is the big add-on to the game in this patch.

Castlot – Close beta and new server

The beta server as closed a few hours ago but if the beta server is closings that mean the first official server is coming.

Yoogame didn’t wasted much time and released there first server today at 7h00 (March 28, 2012 PDT)

I played a bit in the beta and I can say that it’s mix of MMORTS with heroes duels and mission. The tutorial and quest system really help to pick up the game. Give it a try.

Little treasures

I found two really nice games on the ipad that came out recently. The original Final fantasy tactic (you have to pay 17,99$ though) and Baldur’s gate Enhanced Edition.

I actually love the final fantasy series but never got the chance to play the first Final fantasy tactic, I did play Final fantasy tactic 2 on DS though.

The game look really good, can wait to for my itune gift certificate to spend it on this game.

Check out the review from touch arcade.

Baldur’s gate Enhanced is not out yet but should be this summer, I really hope to see how this old game port perform. I did play neverwinter and icewindale but didn’t got the chance to play baldur’s gate, I hope it will be good as my friends told me.
