Fire Emblem Heroes vs Pokémon Duel
Fire Emblem Heroes
Fire Emblem Heroes is a turn-based strategy/RPG that's inspired in part by the popular Fire Emblem series by Nintendo. However, many fans are calling this game a sold-out because the game has drastically dumbed-down mechanics (no terrain effects, for example) and difficulty that will put the other games in the popular series to shame. Granted that the game needs to be modified to fit the mobile platform and appeal to the more casual mobile gamers, the game is still rather disappointing for hardcore fans of the series.That said, the game features characters from one of Nintendo’s most popular games, an anime-ish storyline, and thankfully, it retains the series' "paper-scissors-stone"-styled combat system. There are plenty of maps for you to battle on, though they may be a tad bit small, and the gameplay is fast-paced enough to be engaging. You can even fight other players with your team of five heroes or come up with new strategies via the practice arena.
Fire Emblem Heroes is the sort of game that's targeted towards a casual audience, and even as this is true, fans of the series might still want to try the game out. You may end up not liking it but at least you can claim to have given this game a chance. However, if you love casual games and the Fire Emblem games, then this is definitely a must-download for you.
Pokémon Duel
Pokémon Duel is one of the few mobile spin-offs that deviate rather far from the conventional Pokemon games. Featuring a strategic gameplay that's based on the popular Pokemon Trading Figure Game in Japan, you'll get to actually battle other Pokemon trainers by placing your Pokemon figures on a board. The player who managed to reach their opponent's base tile will win the game.As you might have expect of any Pokemon-themed games, you'll get to collect beautiful (but digital) Pokemon figurines from across all Pokemon generations, assemble your lineup of figurines, much like building a deck, and attempt to defeat as many Pokemon trainers as you can on your quest to become the best Pokemon trainer.
Pokemon Duel is the perfect game for players who are looking for a free-to-play Pokemon game that actually let you duel - not like the tap-fest that Pokemon Go uses. Fans of the Pokemon Trading Figure Game might find this game very entertaining as well since it's very similar to the game they love.
