So you have a smartphone? And it has Android? You love playing games on your phone. Admit it! And you love the world of free and open source software; why else would you be on this site? Well, a bit of good news: Humble Mobile Bundle 2, a novel way of getting your favorite Indie games, has put on offer three more games if you grab the Humble Mobile Bundle (compatible with Android) by donating more than the average (currently at $4.59). Humble Bundle lets you pay as little to as much as you want to. The bundle comes with 4 mobile games by default, but you can unlock more by buying it for more than the average price.
Earlier, the bundle had 2 such unlockable games–Ravensword Shadowlands and Carmageddon–but it now has got 3 more unlockables on offer–Karateka Classic, QWOP and God of Blades. The bundle, that normal would cost $44, is up for grabs for about 7 more days, at a price you decide. To whet your appetite, here’s a quick reckoner for the included games.
Captain on the bridge! If you’ve ever wanted to command your own spaceship, look no further than the spaceship adventure simStar Command. Build tactical, science, and engineering facilities on your ship and hire crew members to manage them. On your space adventure, you’ll run into hostile martians of all kinds, where you’ll be forced to defend your ship and destroy theirs. Mini-games and retro colorful pixel graphics bring this cosmic game alive.
Time Surfer
Surf through the galaxy on the waves of time in Time Surfer, an intensely vibrant endless runner where you control the flow of time. Spikes, asteroids, and other unruly things speed towards you; luckily, you can cheat death by rewinding time and correcting your mistakes. Collect space cake to unlock costumes and cute pets, which provide powerups and upgrades when it comes to flying at warp speed. Surf’s up, dude!
Punch Quest
Punch Quest is a colorful fit of flying fists, uppercuts, and jabs. The arcade punchrunner is the perfect combination of zany, rapid brawling and running action including a laser-shooting dinosaur and plenty of wacky monsters. Customize your character with an endless stash of hats, powerups, and upgrades, then go forth and unleash those fists of fury.
Bloons TD 5
There’s no better time for monkey business than in Bloons TD 5, where the classic tower-defense game is getting a fun upgrade of primates, balloons, and utter silliness. Pop fearsome balloons by placing your monkeys and towers strategically. Every balloon popped will earn you money, which can be used to buy more towers and upgrade existing towers. With a little popping, you can easily turn your ordinary Dart Monkey into a force to be reckoned with. Balloons beware.
Unlockables
