Survival isn't just gameplay — it's narrative.

What I'm currently playing...

A game that I am playing on my phone is Galaxy Life, it's a fun strategy game that players build a base on a planet and collect resources while building and upgrading armies to send through Stargates, in order to invade and defend against other planets. Friends can connect with each other and help with resources and defenses. After expansions, other planets can be colonized. The progression in the game allows for players to feel attached and engaged over long periods of time.
Candy Crush Saga has a great mechanic that also allows stringing together combinations of different types of candies to achieve higher scores. Chaining together special candies for a super attacks rewards the Players make the best matching choice based on availability of random placed candy. Starcraft 2's Multiplayer is extremely well balanced and fine tuned for strategic competitive tournaments, that requires competitive players to anticipate and counter the opponent. The asymmetry of the 3 different races, allows for some interesting rock paper scissors style attack cycles. Assassins Creed III has some really fun well placed mobility sections that have a good pace and rhythm to them. The stealth mechanic isn't really forced much, as the players can use the updated combat system that has been greatly improved since earlier adaptations. There is also a good sense of scale with mixture of bright open worlds combined with darkly lit dungeons with interior puzzle rooms. Call of Duty:Black OPS 2 has some of the most realistic and customizable weapons in any game. Rewards for kill-streaks provide even more of a tactical advantage and excitement.
