Talk:Android

As someone with an Android (feels bad man), should we note about some touchscreens sucking? I don't know about anyone else, but the lack of multi-touch on mine blows for games outside of turn-based RPGs. Maybe pull out keyboard/add-on is recommended? --Dejiko 23:01, June 11, 2011 (UTC)

On that note, some games I'm not entirely sure would be popular here, but some I enjoyed.
The two Ga(i)(l/)ardia games:

Galardia 2 seems more preferable with 4 characters to control along with the ability to job change. The problem is that I can't currently find it on the phone store, even though I can on my computer. It's also a pay for game (5 bux).

Galardia 1 is free and easily found, but it only has 3 characters, no job changes and is kinda hard (the game is essentially like Dragon Quest 2,but altered and updated with the dev's own story, dungeons, designs, etc.).

Demon Hunter:

Essentially a korean version of Metroidvania, but with a sort of Diablo-like skill tree system to upgrade your abilities and skills. Jumping is a pain in the ass without multi-touch, but having played it for a number of hours, I find the action to be quite solid. Used to be a bit laggy, but it seems they've streamlined the programming to run quite smoothly.

Gurk II:

Don't know much about this, but it's supposed to be an improved version of the original. Gurk 1 was a (super)lite version of Ultima, but entertaining enough, especially due to the ability to save anywhere. This one seems to be more refined and even has music.

Zenonia 2 and 3:

I'm not too fan of the first, but I do think that one is best played on DS oddly enough. I do like 2, and I've heard good things about 3. I don't know if the 3rd is out for Android yet, but here's the link for 2, which has a short free demo, and usually doesn't cost much to purchase.

Caligo Chaser:

Some have had issues with it, but I think it's pretty pimp, despite the silly name. RPG/Beat 'Em Up hybrid with a similar skill tree system to Demon Hunter. You do missions and quests where you get to slay lods of emonstahs. In addition to weapons, you also have a weird-ass power gauntlet which helps you get the upper hand (dohoho) over your enemies. Also cute girls and a nice soundtrack that sounds like it could almost be Guilty Gear's B-sides.
