List of "Good" Android Exclusives (We should support)! Discussions and Posts welcome

Android Enthusiast
I think this thread has been long overdue. This thread will focus mainly on (proven) GOOD Android Exclusive games that we as users should support or developers who have shown they are willing to support Android 1st. I think many people even us Android users are sold that if its not popular on Apple devices that the game may not be buy worthy. Well I wanted to make a list of games that's just as high in quality as iphone popular games if not better quality that are exclusive to Android or you're sure supports android 1st mostly. Lets take the famous Doodle Jump for example over 250,000 sold on android, but we have Abduction 1 & 2 that is just as good if not better with way more value, but yet many more people bought Doodle Jump instead & it's not even up to date with the iphone version. I have an ipod and from my experience Abduction is way better, but that is an opinion. It just seem like whenever a popular game comes from an Apple device everyone wants to jump on it but we have just as good exclusives in many cases that go almost unnoticed in comparison.

Keep in mind most games have a lite version so there is no risk, plus 15 min refund on full version. Also a few games will not be not be exclusives, but the developer has shown a willingness to support android 1st. I will let you in developer description if this is the case, but otherwise just take the game and developer as being exclusive to android. Clicking developer links should show every game created by them.

The goal here is to support android developers which most of the time have way less incentive to come to android monetary wise (though we have more users) but take the risk anyway because they love the os. Another goal is to make more developers want to come to android if figures rise or make android exclusives themselves.

PS. If I miss something or make a mistake about a game or developer feel free to let me know. I'm human. Also, if you can provide link sexy links to games that look like this *Alchemy Genetics or developers Developer: Cory Trese (Trese Brothers) I will give you special thanks and of course add your link to the thread.

Good thread! Agreed, much overdue. Few games on that list that I've been meaning to try for a while, will stump up some cash to support these guys later today!
 
Nice thread, going to bookmark and suggest maybe it get added to a current sticky if possible.

If you can add links /make the free stuff more obvious double plus extra bonus points for you good sir

And you already earned a +1UP :)

I put *by free games but I will try to improve if still needed. Also links will take time but it would be nice. I'm a college student with a girlfriend so it may take a little while to add links, but I may if I have time. It would be significantly more work on me than to search market really quick though.
 
Great list! I don't think any of Hexage's games are Android exclusives though. Robotek was released exclusively for Android but it's on iOS now. That said, Hexage is one of my favorite developers.
 
Sorry to correct you even further :p - it is a good list, after all - but HandyGames' catalogue aren't all Android exclusives either. Haven't checked them all, but Guns'n'Glory is definitely available on iOS.

Yeah no worries, you're off to an excellent start, mine was just a minor nitpick, this list is still awesome.

You should also feel free to check out my app listables, it might help you make the BBcode/links for any of these apps that are on your phone at least.

Like I said though no rush, great job already, and fantastic sentiment :D


Also btw, this post will be linked to from the "games list" thread soon (if not already). Vanquished was kind enough to agree to drop a link in there with a credit to you.

Cheers bud :)
 
Thanks you guys. I will add better descriptions next to developers. Also, I didn't say every single game would be an exclusive. I stated exclusive or willing to put android first. Kairosoft for example only Android exclusive Grand Prix Story and (a soccer story game that not in english yet) but that happened because of Android fans supported of Game Developer Story and Hot Springs Story probably even more than ios. They showed they are willing to give us exclusive content so I put all of there games up because it helps overall for us to get exclusive content or support. Hexage supports android 1st I'm sure of that. Also Handygames have games on Android that aren't on ios such as Cyberlords and Aporkalypes so they've shown they are willing to put android 1st. I will try to be more specific in my descriptions was trying to keep it from looking clustered.

Updated descriptions better.

Developer :RunnerGames Studios(They seem to have vanished and 2 days ago we see a Pumpkins vs Monsters for iphone :confused: from another company WuzLa)

Yeah I think they are connected been kind of hard to figure this company out. I've seen the name WuzLa a few times now on android, I believe in advertisements of Runner games. They do make good copies of popular games ios games though plus they are free mostly.

I would like to add the following:

Condado and Androminion. Both these video game implementations of card/board games. San Juan and Dominion respectively. San Juan has a freeware version in Java for PC (no expansions though) while Dominion is also available in many formats for PC (with online play expansions vary). If something equivalent came out for iOS, it would likely be by someone else, released under a different name, but as I've been looking for some of these games in the past for iOS, it still looks like these are indeed Android exclusives.

EDIT: While San Juan has made its way onto iOS, Condado still has expansions implemented for it.
 
Another solid developer is Silvertree Media. They developed Cordy and Sleepy Jack. Sleepy Jack is probably my favorite mobile game at the moment.
 
I know I risk being called an advertiser is I post here, but I really wanted to support my favourite app developer.

They are called G-Gee US and are a Japanese company that does only Android games.

The reason why I support them so much is because they offer so many free games, and classic/retro games.

I really hope they keep up the good work, and i hope they can bring more cool Japanese games into the international market.
 
These are some RPGs that I've really enjoyed.


Developer: Little Killerz
Legends Arcana
There's also a free version (with ads I think) but its easily worth the $1.99 with lots of replay value. The developer is very good with replying to any e-mail too, and if you're not satisfied I think they'll even work out a refund past the 15 minute Google limit.

 Developer: Oskar Wiksten
Andor's Trail

It's a free, open-source RPG with a lot of quests, NPCs, no level up limit, skill points. Its a work in progress but there's already a lot of replay value or rare items to hunt for. The developers also have a forum and are pretty good to respond (there's a pretty good community built up there too). There's a few knock offs of this that just copies it and puts in adds so make sure to get the one from Oskar Wiksten.

Developer: Team Replica
Replica Island

The on screen controls (for no keyboard or trackball like the Galaxy Nexus) aren't great, but its a fun game where you control Andy the Android (more or less) in a side scrolling adventure game.
 
Thanks added. Those are really good games. Sorry I've haven't been on here, but something told me to check today. Other users are welcome to post games and its really encouraged considering how much android is rapidly expanding its game catalog. Please leave developer name, game, and smexy link if possible;also the reason you think the game should be added. I will try to check (at least) monthly and add good ones to main list. Thanks and I apologize again for being so busy.
 
Are there any good games (i.e., with ratings of 4.0 or above at Google Play) that are exclusive to Android?
 
Field runners was available on iphone 1, on launch day I believe.

Crystallight I thought was an iPhone port

Also though flight director is another I thought was an iPhone port.

The only one of those I know for sure is field runners
