Our objective here with our weekly roundup of games is to make sure that you never run out of interesting and enjoyable games to play, especially now that the holiday season is rolling in. If you’re looking for a quick way to kill time before that next thing you were going to do, you’ve come to the right place. Here are some games you should look into, as well as games to look forward to which are coming out of the pipeline.
Treasure Raiders: Zombie Crisis
If you’re in the market for a fun new shooter to play with, then say no more. Treasure Raiders: Zombie Crisis is a new one still fresh and hot from the oven of Oasis Games. The game is a cool mix of MOBA elements and your typical run and gun shooter, and the game features five distinct playable characters. Free to play, so go for it.

Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth
It looks like CAPCOM is hoping to complete its popular Ace Investigator series on Android, porting it from the popular Nintendo platforms from whence it came. A number of these games have already been released for Android, and here’s a new one – Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth. This follows roughly the same gameplay as the other games. The game is available at a “discounted” price of USD$11.99. The games are expensive like that, and this is probably the best deal you can get for an Ace Attorney game.

PepeLine Adventures
If you need one of those cute puzzle games for wasting time on your train commute, then you can try PepeLine Adventures. If you don’t mind the “Pepe and Line” storyline, then you might actually enjoy the Rubik’s cube-like gameplay the game gives you. And it’s free to play, so what more can one ask, right?

Final Fantasy Brave Exvius
If you’ve been following Android games, then you’ll know that Final Fantasy Brave Exvius is not a new game – it’s actually been around for quite a while now. But the new thing is that Square Enix is letting players use one special character this holiday season – Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy 7. So if you’re loco about Final Fantasy, this is another reason to play the game.

Flora and the Darkness
If you’re hunting for truly unique and visually stunning games, Flora and the Darkness is one action platformer you need to get. The game is pretty simple – it plays like an auto-runner. Flora will run automatically, and you control the jumping part so that she makes it through each level. But the game is actually done in a beautiful art style that adds so much to the game. This game is free to play, so all the more reason to check it out.

Flyff Legacy
Flyff was actually a pretty popular MMORPG that we remember from before, so we realize that some of you Android gamers might actually be happy that the game is now released on Android as Flyff Legacy. The game is not a direct port, some visual tweaks have been done to make the game better for mobile. But it’s the same cute MMORPG fun, and it’s free to download and play, so whatchu waitin’ for?

Jumanji
So this game has come full circle… sort of. You can trace the lineage from an old Robin Williams movie about a board game, which is now being remade and is a major film release. That said, what major film release could not do without an Android game tie-in? So that’s what this game is – a game about a movie which is about a game. Cool, right?
