There are 4 games that I am currently obsessed with, even though two of them aren't available for play at the moment. Two of them are games for the 3DS, and the other two are phone games. All of them are simply recreational activities - ones that you could spend hours on and never get bored because there's always something to do.
The first game is called Dragon City. It is an application for your phone or tablet and like the title says, it is about raising a dragon city. You start off by buying habitats for your dragons because there are 18 elemental types of them. Each type has to have it's own environment for it to grow. You level them up by feeding them food that you either grow yourself or get as a reward for completing quests. You can also breed your dragons to create hybrids and battle your dragons against other people from around the world. Overall, this game is very fun and I could spend a lot of time on it. The only complaint I have is that the dragons require more and more food as they are leveled up, and a lot of the time you can't keep up with the food demand. In this situation, you could spend hours growing your own food, or buying food from the shop with gems. The problem is, you can only get gems if you pay actual money. One other complaint I have (and this may be due to my horrible internet at home) is that the game is always rebooting and never saves my stuff. Pretty sure it's my internet at home because when I'm playing the game on my 4G data, it never reboots and runs smoothly.
Another phone game that I am currently playing is called Moe Girl Cafe. Basically, you are a cafe owner and you must hire girls to take care of customers. You can change their outfits, the kind of food they serve, and who is a greeter, chef, or waitress. One thing I like about this game is that you get to design your own cafe. You can change it's size, as well as the walls, floors, and chairs. There are multiple decorations you can also buy that are actually quite cute. This game is great because it's one of those that you could play for hours upon hours (I've done it, so I know) without getting bored.
Now onto the main event - the 3DS games that haven't even come out yet. Both of them will be released sometime in 2016.
I can't wait that long.
The first one I will talk about is part of a series. The series is called Fire Emblem, and is a popular RPG. The last game in the series was called "Fire Emblem: Awakening", and the name for the one that is coming out in 2016 is still not known. However, people have been calling it, "Fire Emblem: Choose Your Path." In these games, you are the protagonist and you get to design your own character. It gives a personal feel to all of the games because you are basically playing to decide your own fate. The plot in this game is that two countries are at war with each other. One country stands for justice and light. The other stands for glory and darkness. You were born in the light country, but you ended up kidnapped as a child and was raised by the dark country. Later on in the game, you are forced to choose between the two sides. What will be your choice: loyalty, or true family? One other interesting element in this game is that you are able to build relationships with people. This helps you get better stats and help you in battle if the two people with a good relationship are put together. You can also put male and female characters together (including yourself), and have them get married at some point in the game. You could even end up with a child. It is a very interesting concept, but I liked "Fire Emblem: Awakening," and I can't wait for this one to come out!
The last game I will talk about also doesn't have an official name. All that is known about it is that it will come out in 2016 and that it is a Fire Emblem and Shin Megami Tensei crossover game. Both of these are popular RPGs and generally have fantastic story lines. I watched a trailer for the game but not much has been released. People are not aware what the game will be about or what our main goal is. I have loved the past Shin Megami Tensei games, so I'm sure I'll love this one as well. The only thing that irks me is that you HAVE to play as a boy. There is no girl option for you to choose from. You'd think that in 2015-2016, we'd have a choice by now.
Above are the two trailers - the bottom is for Fire Emblem, and the top is for the crossover. Please watch them for more info!!
