Hardcore Droid’s freemium reviews assess a plethora mobile games. Among these, our writers cover Android strategy, Android RPGs and Android action games. Hardcore Droid reviews both premium and free Android games. Also, we assess Android free indie games, games based on ads, those marketed via in-app purchases and those that use the demo model.

We evaluate a mobile free game’s value from the perspective of the average hardcore gamer’s experience. While generally we prefer paid for, premium games, we endeavor to give a fair shake to those that use the freemium model. Always it’s a matter of discerning whether a game would pass muster from core gamer’s experience.

By core gamers we mean people who love RPGs, action and strategy games. The question of how the average core gamer would enjoy a game is always the focal point of our Android game reviews. Consequently, our freemium reviews celebrate the best in hardcore mobile games.

This concept of core freemium gaming on Android speaks to the theme of Hardcore Droid. We strive to review core Android games and to laud the finest hardcore games developed for the Android OS. Also, Hardcore Droid honors the efforts of independent game developers, especially those who develop games for Mobile and Android specifically.

Avid gamers themselves, our reviewers invariably commend the efforts of independent development houses, who are creating free indie games.

Hardcore Droid reviews focus on the best in mobile freemium gaming. In this space we shine a light on those free games that contain the depth, richness and complexity of core video games.
