How do you’re feeling in regards to the huge Netflix x Warner Bros kerfuffle, and do you suppose you deserve a go to from three ghosts this Christmas? We deal with every little thing from Hey Kitty’s supposedly darkish previous to essentially previous lizard-looking sugar monsters on this week’s (New and Improved!) Pocket Gamer Podcast.
As we ponder the intricacies of a bearded stranger breaking into folks’s homes uninvited this Christmas season, Iwan kicks issues off with what’s arguably the largest information of the previous week, which is Netflix’s deliberate acquisition of Warner Bros. There is not any doubt going to be a complete bunch of stuff to contemplate relating to the subscription service’s catalog of video games on cell, nevertheless it’ll additionally little doubt take ages earlier than something solidifies, so we’ll all simply need to maintain tuning in to seek out out.
That mentioned, what’s sure this week is the launch of Hey Kitty and Buddies World, which is precisely what it says on the tin – you adorn the favored kitty’s world alongside together with her buddies, and what’s much more attention-grabbing is that all the Sanrio characters are already instantly unlocked from the beginning. It basically removes microtransactions, given it is presupposed to be focused towards children, which is a beautiful change of tempo.
However if you happen to’re in search of one thing that is fully free – at the least for the second – Epic Video games Retailer is bringing The Darkside Detective to cell as its freebie of the week. Will tells us all about its well-balanced options (take a look at Iwan’s evaluation on it too if you happen to’re curious), earlier than Iwan decides who’s doomed to obtain an premature go to from three ghosts this season (Hey Kitty herself included).
We then transfer on from creepy spectres to cult classics with the upcoming Dungeons of Nightfall, which actually options such a wealthy backstory that it is best to take a look at Iwan’s interview with 68K Studios to know all of the nitty-gritty.
Now, if you happen to’re a fan of attention-grabbing narratives like I’m, this one’s caught my eye – Planet of Lana has now made the leap onto cell. I do really feel prefer it’s completely suited to the platform with its pretty visuals and optimised controls; plus, it jogs my memory a whole lot of Far: Lone Sails with all of the wordless and evocative surroundings. So, if that is your form of vibe, I might say that is value giving a go.
And at last, Will caps issues off with the lovable Om Nom becoming a member of the blocky world of Minecraft as a particular add-on, which brings us to the existential query of what precisely this little inexperienced blob is and why it is nonetheless stealing our hearts (and sugars?) to today.
