    Magicka: Wizard Wars Preview

    By

    Go fetch your finest wizard robe out of your closet, because it's never been a better time to be a Magicka fan. Not only do we have the hugely anticipated mobile adventure Magicka: Wizards of the Square Tablet finally releasing this week after a minor delay, but another new game set in the Magicka universe has also just been announced. The game in question is called Magicka: Wizard Wars and it's gearing up to bring the cooperative aspects of the Magicka series onto a competitive multiplayer field. The game is being developed by a new studio within Paradox Interactive called Paradox North, as opposed to the creators of the original Magicka, Arrowhead Game Studios.

    Greedy Grub Preview

    By

    Winter is kind of a jerk. It makes things cold, covers a decent chunk of the world in snow, and lays waste to undeserving plant life. The characters of Greedy Grub have been forced to learn this the hard way. Their home, The Forest, has been wiped away by the harsh cold of winter, and it's the player's job to bring things back to normal.

    House of the Dead Overkill: The Lost Reels Preview

    By

    As an avid fan of the House of the Dead series, I approached House of the Dead Overkill: The Lost Reels with a slight feeling of concern. It's an iOS and Android port of a game I thoroughly enjoyed, and it's always worrisome to see a console game get adapted for smartphones and tablets. Now, having played the game for almost 20 minutes, my feeling of concern has turned into one of anticipation.

    Sonic the Hedgehog 1 & 2 being remastered for iOS and Android

    By

    It seems like everyone's favorite speedy blue hedgehog has been zooming all over the mobile scene this last year, with the well-received Sonic Dash releasing earlier this month, and Sonic Jump releasing a little while before that. And now this week at GDC, SEGA has announced that the original Sonic the Hedgehog is being remastered and headed to iOS and Android platforms this spring.

    Playdek to bring Dungeons & Dragons to mobile devices

    By

    One step backwards, two steps forwards - that the kind of month it's been for Playdek.  It was only days ago that the company announced it would no longer be partnering with Stone Blade Entertainment - the tabletop games company whose mobile ports Playdek has built their reputation on.  And while that seemingly spelled a troubled future for the company, today's announcement handily snuffs out any such concerns.

    Plants vs. Zombies Adventures Preview

    What's the biggest casual game of all time?  Believe it or not, that's surprisingly tough to say.  Bejeweled has held millions of players in its trance for more than a decade.  Tetris has done the same for even longer than that.  But Plants vs. Zombies?  While it may not be greying at the temples like those other classics, it's seen little resistance in its attempt to take over the gaming world in just a few short years.

    New Cut the Rope coming in April, more ZeptoLab goodness to follow

    By

    GDC is a little like the Christmas season.  It's a wonderful time when anything can happen.  Take ZeptoLab, for instance.  The studio is still hot on the heels of the recently released Pudding Monsters, but that doesn't mean they don't have plans for the future.  In speaking with Polygon, twin founders Efim and Semyon Voinov have confirmed not one, but four new games that should see the light of day before the end of the year.
