Paradise Island

The Sun, sand and ocean on Paradise Island are just few words to describe this game. Simulation lovers out there can enjoy being creative inside the game amongst the vast array of options available. Create entertainment facilities, small huts to big hotels, restaurants to cafe's, water sports facilities and  many more. It also has a feature where "special buildings" are available when you are connected to the internet. Purchasing these though need a special currency called "Piastres" where you can either buy it to save time or slowly earn it through a specific building. Generate income and expand your island into a business empire. The game interface is simple. It allows the user to spend more time focused on being creative and collection of revenue. Minor setbacks comes when you are to remodel your facilities, specially the roads where you can only delete it block by block, pinpoint accuracy on selecting small objects can be quite frustrating. It also has not been updated for a while, and the developers website seems to be very straight forward. Overall its still one of the best simulation games out there in both graphics and gameplay.

Inotia 3 : Children of Carnia

Utterly crazy SNES graphics RPG game sequel  released by Com2us, bringing back the old fond memories of 16bit gaming culture of the 80's .The game story line is elaborate and moving like its previous predecessors. You start off on your journey on character named Lucio and his bizarre memories of a distant past. As the game progresses you gain more insight about your destiny and meet companions to aid you on your journey. There are 6 types of character classes which you can choose from: Barbarian, Templar, Rogue, Shadow Hunter, Priest or Mage. Each character has its own strengths and weaknesses. What makes the game more interesting is the ability to recruit legendary characters aside from the pre-determined ones you will meet along the game, thus giving you an option to organize your own party preference. What would an RPG game be without the ability to forge new weapons, fortifying them with new additional options through Scrolls and Ethers, use a "DICE" to randomly increase your base stats, and many many more to explore. The game kept me occupied for hours hunting for better equipment for your characters (some hilarious in a way like a Mohawk headgear hehe! which in my opinion spices up the game). It also features an easy way to purchase in game items on the adventurers shop to help you with the difficulties of farming, defeating bosses, access to areas where you have the chance to gain even more powerful items. The game constantly is updating itself and is rumored to have PvP available in future versions of the game. Overall the game title is worth keeping  for all RPG fans out there :) Oh I forgot to mention the best part: The game can be downloaded (for android users on marketplace) for FREE!

The game supports languages in French, Korean and English.
Available on both Android and iPhone.
