Our favourite mobile games of the month

This month we've fallen for two great new releases. Make room on your storage space because these mobile games are going to be hard to resist.

King Arthur: Legends Rise

Let's start off with King Arthur: Legends Rise. Kabam Games revisits the Arthurian legend. If you like gacha and fantasy Brittany, you're in for a treat. The game offers a fairly balanced gacha, a well-honed story and graphics that live up to players' expectations. It's a complete experience that's sure to remind you of well-established giants like Raid Shadow Legends, with content that's already pretty dense and immersion that's well crafted.

Immerse yourself in PvE and PvP battles with your team of heroes against fairytale creatures to save the kingdom of Camelot from the clutches of the terrible King Loth. The legend of Merlin comes to life at your fingertips in this free RPG on Android and iOS.

The Abandoned Planet

Next up is The Abandoned Planet, an uncharted territory of space waiting to be explored for $6.50 on store shelves. The first act is free, so it's an ideal way to get a feel for the game. If, like Yaya, you're a fan of 90s point 'n click adventures, then this will definitely be your thing. Fans of Riven, Myst and even Monkey Island, you'll find a very similar atmosphere and gameplay with the Abandoned Planet.

All pixel art, this puzzle adventure title sends you to a distant planet where your ship has crashed due to a glass hole. The game is dubbed in English and translated into a number of languages, including French, so even on the edge of space you won't be thrown off track. Discover mysterious lost objects that sometimes seem indecipherable and explore dozens of intriguing locations on Android and iOS.
