After all the ghouls and murderous undead and dangerous killers that stalked the streets on Friday the 13th, it's time to settle back with some mobile entertainment. It's good that it's mobile because not all of those undead murderers have settled down just yet. You know, keep running and all.
Announcement! Remember Treasure Adventure Game from 2011? Robit Studios has been working on a sequel for well over a year and a half, turning the simple sidescrolling adventure game into something exponentially more engrossing. Treasure Adventure World is set to do everything Treasure Adventure Game did, only with smoother gameplay, HD widescreen mode with hi-res artwork, more treasures, more collectibles, better enemy AI, an enhanced story with multiple endings, and plenty of other extras. In short, yes, you'll want this game. You'll want it bad.

Everyone can relax, Friday the 13th has ended. But then again, you probably weren't worried about it, were you? Didn't think so. Either way, here's a reward for surviving the allegedly unlucky day: three awesome freeware games!
Games Featured:
- • Mission Luna
- • Escape from the Similar Rooms 6
- • Double Twin
- • Treasure Trap
A "realistic" moon launch where you control every piece of equipment. A series of suspiciously similar rooms. A card game that will seem more than a little familiar to the older and nerdier amoung us. And a tomb of delights and dangers to protect.
Coming next year to PC and consoles if this Kickstarter has anything to say about it, Shantae: Half-Genie Hero stars Shantae, who, after having a nightmarish vision of an ancient evil about to rise, embarks on a platforming action adventure to stop it using her unique abilities. With over 23 years of experience and 200 titles under their belt, can WayForward bring the star of the hit iOS adventure to a new generation?
Coming later this year from Hailstorm Games, Claire is a survival horror adventure that follows a young girl throughout her life. Plagued by horrors and shadows, she finds herself trapped with her faithful canine companion in a twisted reality, hunted by monsters... and haunted by people only she can "redeem"...

Coming later this year for PC and iOS, the episodic indie adventure game Long Story wants to take you back to high school in a way that feels familiar and realistic.

- • Aqueduct
Don't you love it when an "old" game gets a surprise update? Kinda makes you glad you left it sitting on your mobile device all this time.

Games Featured:
- • Zerox Residuum
- • Troll Song - Verse One
- • The End is Meow
Trolls and kittens and robots HOORAY! It's like an internet geek's paradise in this edition of Mobile Monday. If only we could have worked in some meme references, too. But, you know, ain't nobody got time for that.
Up for funding on IndieGoGo, Luc Bernard's action adventure game about a young boy named Samuel and a talking fox plans to take players on a journey few games ever dare to... to explore the human stories of the atrocity that is the Holocaust. Daring? Educational? Or misguided? Opinions are bound to be mixed.

Coming later this year for PC and Mac, this addictive roguelike has a musical twist.

Even with your own MP3s! Add in a gorgeous pixel style and all the features roguelike fans have come to expect, and you have a unique, catchy game we can't wait to see more from.
Planned for PC and Mac in 2014, if you're a fan of FTL: Faster Than Light, Don't Starve, and most importantly, Fallen London, this Kickstarter should get you excited!

Games Featured:

- • Cookie Clicker
- • Canterlot Defender
- • Rise
- • Space Email
Two of the games in this week's Link Dump Friday are inspired somewhat by Candy Box!, which is sweet enough without one of them also being entirely about delicious cookies overtaking the world.

A Firefly game. Read that again: a Firefly game. It's an exciting prospect, even if it's a full 12 months away, but it's also a bit scary. Because, you know, despite being based on the best thing ever, what if it's not the best game ever?!

Geeky times call for geeky games, and this edition of Mobile Monday shows no shortage of said stylings. We've got a gorgeous point and click puzzle game, a math-driven roguelike, and a so-very-retro puzzle hybrid crossing from iOS to Android. We'd love to quote Maximus from that old gem of a film Gladiator about being entertained, but that'd be a bit expected, wouldn't it?
