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.
Amazing Katamari Damacy
Ok, two things here. First, this new endless runner from Bandai Namco is from a franchise you may or may not have heard of. The Katamari Damacy series of games is a weird one from the time of the PlayStation 2, but it is unusually popular with a niche group of gamers in spite of its weirdness. Secondly, this new game – Amazing Katamari Damacy – is a free-to-play game with a bunch of ads, which is why a lot of people have been speaking bad things about it. But you just might want to check it out to see what all the ruckus is about.

Captain Tsubasa: Dream Team
This is a new football-themed game from the popular Captain Tsubasa anime in Japan. The whole thing is about a football team with its captain (try and guess the name), so the game will follow the story line from the anime series. If you’re a fan of sports or football-themed games in general, this might be worth a go. The game is free to play, so what’s a few minutes or so to check out the game? Heck, you might even like it.

Portal Knights
If you’re up for some good old action RPG, then Portal Knights might be the best thing for you right now. If you were wondering why something like this would cost USD$5.00 of your money, that’s because it’s a great game with super RPG features. Aside from the usual RPG elements, you can actually play real-time multiplayer with your friends if you are on the same WiFi network. If you’re a fan of RPGs in general, you probably won’t regret this.

It’s nice that we’re getting this on Android now, good of SEGA to give us another nostalgia hit. This is a straight up port of the original, so expect the same elements. It’s actually free to play, so install it and punch your way down memory line.

Reigns: Her Majesty
If you liked the hit strategy game “Reigns” – and a lot of other people did – Devolver Digital is back with a sequel to said popular game. In “Reigns: Her Majesty”, the game looks into the life of a queen, but amazingly turns it into a very challenging strategy game. Did we mention that its heck fun to play? Because it is. You might want to check this out, it will cost you around USD$3.00, but we promise you it is worth all that.

Riddlord: The Consequence
This is one of those puzzle games – much like “The Room” – where you have to figure out the way to get out. This game will ask you to solve three-dimensional puzzles in great-looking environments. These puzzles contribute to an interesting storyline that make the game really great to play. You’re not just getting a puzzle game, you’re getting a pretty good story too.
