Heroes of Loot is the latest game that I’ve gotten sucked into, on my phone. Though you get to choose different classes (elf, wizard, etc), the game is more akin to Gauntlet than any actual RPG in that the characters are fairly similar, stats-wise.

It’s been a really long time since I’ve been sucked into a multiplayer game. A few years ago it was Team Fortress 2, and before that it was Unreal Tournament. Though it’s not quite the same as a platform-based multiplayer, it definitely scratches that itch. This is a game that I play pretty much daily, and it’s still hasn’t lost its lustre, after a few weeks.

I recently came across a Top 10 Mobile Games article, and stumbled across a game called Triple Town. I downloaded it in the morning and played it a bit, on my way in to work. I played it a bit on the way home from work. And in less than 24 hours, the game has inserted itself into those small spaces of time between events.

On Friday, I happened across a MetaFilter project for a game called 100 Rogues, a Roguelike dungeon crawler for the iPhone. I’m a sucker for games like this, and love the whole hack and explore and increase XP formula. There’s just something satisfying about the whole process that gets my brain firing the right way….

I’ve heard about the iPhone game Eliss for a while now. Mostly it’s been described to me as a fantastic game, but I didn’t really know much beyond that. During my bachelor party, while we were hanging out at Dan’s house, Ben showed me the game and I got to play a few rounds. Since…
