Boom Beach

“Welcome to Boom Beach, come with a plan or leave in defeat.” We love that description on the Play Store and iTunes. Boom Beach was once advertised massively and gained a lot of traction because of that. It’s a strategy game that allows you to play with players from all over the world.

Star Wars: Uprising

Kabam’s Star Wars Uprising can be a slow game, but once you get into the groove, you really want to see the story through. The game follows the story of a brother and sister, in the middle of the epic Star Wars battle. It introduces newer heroes though, so purists may not like it.
