Happy Friday, and welcome back to The Wrapp<\/a>, our regular series where we talk about our weekend gaming plans. This time, Dann is delving into the world of point-and-clicks, while Will has decided he wants Italy-related entertainment. Elsewhere, Catherine has found a bargain on Google Play, and Shaun is prepping for Tennocon by continuing to enjoy Warframe.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been rummaging around the website looking for oddities and things to fix (as my job requires), and subsequently stumbled upon The Midnight Girl<\/a>, which launched a few years back. It\u2019s essentially a point and click adventure – although should we call them tap and tap adventures? – set in a comic-book inspired twist on the 1960s, and, from playing the demo version, I\u2019m impressed. I\u2019m hoping to spend this weekend stealing away some time in a dark, cold room and getting through the whole game.<\/p>\n

This weekend, I will mainly be recovering from having almost melted in the heatwave that\u2019s currently cooking the United Kingdom. That means I probably won\u2019t be dipping into many mobile games, but I do have a review lined up for a certain anime mobile game about ninjas. But you\u2019ll just have to guess about that.<\/p>\n

However, this past week has certainly been a busy one with some exciting launches and news (and one big interview I did<\/a>!), so while you could probably fry an egg on the sidewalk, or my laptop for that matter, I\u2019d say it\u2019s been quite a big week for mobile.<\/p>\n

In but two short weeks, I shall be attending Tennocon for my third year in a row. And I only know that cause I got an email today reminding me, and I had to double-take. It felt so far away. Anyhow, I reckon I will have to get some Warframe in during the weeks ahead, as I am woefully underleveled for someone heading into the heart of Digital Extremes. Also, Sirius and Orion<\/a> are so much bloody fun, I love them.<\/p>\n

I don’t know about you guys, but I’ve got Italy on the mind. Maybe it’s my craving for pasta, the recent music suggestions of Domenico Modugno, or it might be because I was there recently. My point is, unless you’re a plumber with a penchant for mushrooms or a well-ageing assassin working for the “ends justify the means”, there aren’t a lot of big Italian names in the mobile gaming world. Well, let’s fix that, shall we?<\/p>\n

I’m gonna start off with a well-known name in BoomBit Games and their Tiny Gladiators: Tournament. Are you not entertained?! Well, hopefully we all will be.<\/p>\n

How has nobody ever told me that Google Play actually holds sales from time to time? Apparently, there\u2019s a whole bunch of games with a huge discount right now, and because I love cards, claw machines, and clever puns, I\u2019ve gone and bought Dungeon Clawler<\/a> and will be playing it all weekend for a mere Php7.00 – that\u2019s GBP 0.087 according to Google, so yes, money well spent.<\/p>\n

If you read last week’s Wrapp<\/a>, you’ll know that I decided to become a Chandelure Professor, a title that can be achieved by winning 100 matches in Pok\u00e9mon Champions with the spectral light fixture in your team. After a week of second-screen battling while the World Cup plays in the background, I’ve had 66 victories. So, we’re closing in on my pointless academic qualification.<\/p>\n

Alongside that, I’m hoping to put some more time into Crownlings<\/a>. I shared my first impressions earlier today, having found it to be a fun little Advance Wars-like. As with any multiplayer game, I’m expecting my interest to drop off as soon as my MMR gets high enough that I can’t win until I’ve lost five or six in a row. It happened with Phobies, I’m sure it’ll happen again.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
