Hardcore Droid’s platformer game reviews cover an assortment of Android platformers and subgenres. We review Android platformers and iPhone platformers both 3D and side-scrolling platformer games. Hardcore Droid platformer reviews also assess plaformers with strategic and RPG elements. Our writers assess a mobile platformer ‘s value from the perspective of the average hardcore gamer. These are people who love action games, RPGs and strategy games. We understand this because our writers are core gamers. Always, the question of how the average core gamer would enjoy a game is the focus of our Android game reviews.

We assess the best and most critically acclaimed paid Android games. Our writers generally cover the genres that are most popular in the core gaming sphere. In other words, the types of video games found on PCs and consoles.
