Vsauce! I’m Jake and get ready to App All Knight!
Let’s start with the best mobile game ever made Raid: Shadow Legends. Wait, I mean Shooty Quest.
While Shooty Quest isn’t the best mobile game ever made it is incredibly fun. In it you play
a dude on a mission to rescue his wild cat. Think John Wick but with a bow and arrow and zombies,
sludge monsters, spear throwing cows and so on. So nothing like John Wick. Each of
the 36 levels finds you in the dead center. You have to spin in all directions and fire
arrows at the onslaught of enemies. It starts out fairly easy but gets more and more difficult as
new enemies appear that require a certain type of arrow or a combination of multiple arrows Also,
shooting a bird usually drops something special. Ooooh a bomb! Thank you dead bird. As you become
victorious on the battlefield you can unlock and upgrade different types of bows to become
deadlier and other items like boots to make you quick on your feet when dodging evil cow spears.
If you’d rather use your fists to fight instead of arrows, then try
Brawlhalla. Brawlhalla has been out for consoles and PC for a few years but just came to mobile a
few months ago. If you’ve played Smash Bros then this game will look pretty familiar. But Smash
isn’t available on mobile so this game scratches that itch. There are 50 characters to choose from
and lots of customizations to do, over 20 game modes and a variety of maps to fight on. I’m
gonna be honest...I’m terrible at these style of games but gosh if I don’t enjoy getting my
butt kicked in them. The style of play is fairly straightforward, beat your opponents to a pulp,
and try to knock them or hit them off the stage before you do. There are items to pick up during
the match and, if you have a controller to use with your phone, that might give you
an advantage as Brawlhalla supports crossplay. So you might be fighting against console or PC
players. That being said, the touch controls are pretty good and you can customize them
to a surprising degree. Now watch me win this...oh...well...looks like I was shot into
Space..Colony. Space Colony is a tycoon style game with a similar look to Egg Inc but...in space.
Your job is to manage a space mining colony. In fact, you need to manage a lot of them across a
total of 16 planets. As more astronauts arrive you have to upgrade your infrastructure to not
only house them, but train them so you can mine more efficiently. And you can’t forget your supply
chain which needs to be managed and upgraded to deliver the minerals that you’ve mined. Just watch
out for meteors because they are not nice. As you become more successful and move onto colonizing
and mining more planets, you can upgrade your solar panels so the colony can keep working
even if you aren’t playing. Because you moved on to play the game of your dreams RAID: Shado
PAKO Caravan. You like Snake right? Well what if your snake was made out of hundreds of cars?
The idea here is pretty simple, keep adding cars to your caravan. Car avan? Car a Van? Anyway, the
more cars you add the more points you get but the harder it becomes. Not only do you have to avoid
obstacles in your path and driving off a cliff but you have to avoid your ever growing chain of cars.
As each level progresses you’re faced with new challenges but also fun surprises like a portal.
Hello there portal, I’m going to drive into you. This is a fun game but can get pretty stressful
as you start to feel like you’re doing well and then suddenly aren’t. So let’s relax with
Sky: Children of the Light. Sky is...beautiful. Not only the visuals but soundtrack as well.
Which isn’t entirely surprising considering it is from the same folks who made Flower,
Flow and Journey. In Sky you find yourself in a kingdom with 7 realms
with the purpose of finding fallen stars and returning them to their respective constellations.
More than that though, the game is about exploring. It is a beautiful open world to
wander through. But you don’t have to be alone. You can invite a friend or partner with someone
you meet on your journey. If you ever find yourself lost, click on your character and
you’ll be guided in the right direction. But even if you are lost, there is a beauty in just seeing
what this world has in it and appreciating the time spent within. There is no combat or
health to maintain. You quickly obtain a winged cape to help you travel and explore, some candles,
and a gestures/emotes menu. That’s about it. Sky: Children of the Light isn’t so much about doing
as it is experiencing. It is a wonderful escape and one I’d highly recommend.

Have fun playing and, as always, thanks for watching.
