Since the G1 days (that is a completely accurate description of an era), I’ve been expecting a surge of turn-based RPG titles to hit the Play Store running. But despite having touch-based controls on our smartphones that would perfectly compliment RPG gaming, titles have been few and far between. And that makes me a sad panda.
Maybe that’s why I was so hyped to see the fresh-off-the-Play-Store “Juggernaut: Revenge of Sovering” — a new to Android title from developer Mail.ru Games. The game blends traditional RPG exploration and leveling up, with 1-on-1 turn-based combat. Players will choose between 6 different character classes, 12 classes of armor, 4 schools of magic along with 12 fighting spells, and 30 levels of progression.
Instead of choosing a command and sitting back as your avatar executes it, combat is a lot more involved. Players are forced to tap, swipe and use combos to obliterate their opponents and combat stays fresh thanks to 3 in-fight minigames. If you really want to finish off your enemy, each character has their own “execution” moves that can be performed similar to fatalities ala Mortal Kombat. Don’t even get me started on the trailer which looks even better than the game sounds. Check it out below.
Promising over 30 hours of gameplay and gorgeous 3D artwork, Juggernaut: Revenge of Sovering is an instant download for Android gamers looking for their RPG fix. To get started on the 440MB download, head on over to the Play Store where the game can be downloaded free of charge.
That does actually look interesting…. OMW to check it out!
I wonder how hot this game would make my nexus 7
Hotter than Megan Fox in a bikini on a sunny summer afternoon… O_o
I very much doubt that’s even possible. :-P
How about Megan Fox in a fur coat on a sunny summer afternoon — standing next to the barbecue?

Aside from a few random freezeslock ups so far this game is been good for a casual pick up and play! (Nexus 7GSIII). Controls work much fasterbetter than i was expecting too!
There is a pretty good turn based rpg on the market at the moment. It’s called kingturn serie. It’s not an AAA game but it’s certainly worth a try.
Finally had time to try it this weekend and got hit with the openfeint/gree login stuff. It wouldn’t let me play as a guest because I already had an openfeint account with this phone. But then it wouldn’t take my password for that account. So I ended up not playing.
