Rewind

30 posts

An archive of Hardcore Droid reviews of some of the finest games created we’ve covered. We cover the most seminal mobile titles.
Hardcore Droid’s rewind reviews cover Android RPGs, Android strategy games and Android action games. Hardcore Droid’s rewind reviews celebrate the absolute best in hardcore Android games.
We assess a mobile game’s value from the perspective of the average hardcore gamer’s experience. These are people who love RPGs, FPSs, and adventure and strategy games of various stripes. So the question of how the average core gamer would enjoy a game is always be in the forefront of our Android game reviews.
How a core gamer would enjoy a particular game is always central to our reviews. We evaluate the best and most critically acclaimed premium Android games and generally cover genres that are most popular in the core gaming sphere. In other words the types of video games found on PCs and consoles.
This concept of core gaming on Android speaks to the central theme of Hardcore Droid. We are looking to laud mobile games, more particularly Android games that contain the depth, richness and narrative complexity of core video games.
To this end, we prefer to cover and review premium mobile games over free mobile games. To this end, we are more likely to review and assess paid games over freemium to play games. As we are more likely to evaluate games that are sophisticated, multi-faceted and complex.
