What mobile games are we currently playing? (February 2020)

It’s time again for another edition of What mobile games are we currently playing?! We still have our usual favorite games (Fate/Grand Order, Call of Duty Mobile, anyone?), we explored several new games and got hooked onto them pretty quick. Check them out!

Arknights

A tower defense mobile gacha game, Arknights was first released in China in 2019, and recently had its global release in January. Set in a post-apocalyptic time on the planet Terra, players take up the role of a “Doctor,” recently recovered from a cryonic sleep. The Doctor then has to command a team of “Operators” from Rhodes Island, a pharmaceutical company that fights the deadly infection called “Oripathy.”  Apart from trying to find a cure for Oripathy, Rhodes Island Operators are also seeking to defend themselves against the Reunion Movement, a military made up of the Infected who are bent on overthrowing Terra’s government.

Players can recruit Operators (characters) through a gacha system, and characters are also divided into eight classes. Aside from its extensive lore and challenging battles, players can also unlock a lot of features, such as other game modes, resources, build facilities, and more as they level up and progress through. One of the greatest things in Arknights is its Auto Mode function. Once a player completes a level with a three-star rating, the game records the player’s actions and replicates it using Auto Mode, allowing players to re-run a level without having to touch it at all. Arknights is available to play on both iOS and Android.
