Mobile games February 2009

Build your city
In recent releases from the maker Glu Mobile, two games need to be pointed out. Firstly, Build your city puts the player in a Simcity like environment, offering them the possibility of building their dream city.

Numerous building types are available but you will need to know how to manage the material, the workers and their locations either in the Relax mode or under the career mode which has a lot additional events that pop up.

In this mode, the elected officials require a certain level of living (a cinema, a skating rink, bowling alley…) which needs to be met while not blowing the budget. Your best score can also be shared on the Internet.

Watchmen
And since the film Watchmen has been released in cinema theatres, why not get back into its atmosphere with the official mobile adaptation released by Glu Mobile? This is loyal to the American comic book written by Alan Moore.

In a climate resembling the cold war of the middle of the 1980’s, the player takes on different characters like Hibou and the comedian crossed with large figures, good or bad from the comics, like Rorshchach or Dr. Manhattan.

Watchman is a fighting game where you have to make your way through the streets of New York, the Vietnamese jungle and Hibou’s high tech plane. 17 levels wait our hero’s who has to use all fighting techniques and arsenal possible, with each character having a special move.

Build your city and Watchmen are both available on the main characters portals and are each sold for $7.5
