When the first smartphones arrived at the end of the first decade of the 2000s, few imagined that they would end up becoming the main gaming platform in the world, above the desktop machines, PCs and laptops that usually attract all the attention. the present. And that is precisely why we bring you 7 alternatives that are identical on both sides of the game board. In case you want to throw some nostalgic games while you go down the street.
These are titles that, in some way, have marked an era in the history of video games and that, above all, do not have a flat, simple and fast development. We bring you titles that meet what is required of an AAA that has trodden terrain as complicated as that of PC, PlayStation or Xbox, where players not only demand graphic excellence, but also that which has to do with its development and gameplay.
So these are our must-see classics on your mobile screen:
Star Wars KOTOR
The role-playing classic based on Star Wars and the work of Bioware has adaptations of its two titles but only for iPhone and iPad. They are carbon copies of the console and PC versions and their control is perfectly adapted to the screen of your smartphone. You cannot miss them.
Tropic
It is one of the most successful strategy and management games on PC (and on consoles with the latest versions) because it mixes the classic elements of the genre with small drops of politics and tropical tyranny. It’s great to enjoy it on your mobile or tablet screen.
Baldur’s Gate
What to say about one of the most classic role-playing games that have existed for computers, and not just PC. It is one of the most fun and extensive developments that you can play, which even in its Enhanced version offers even more than the original.
Max Payne
Remedy’s classic is another one worth revisiting, at least to remove the bitter aftertaste of that horrible movie starring Mark Wahlberg. This marvel will continue to leave us with the bad body of the family story that it narrates, its bullet times, the frenetic action and a control perfectly adapted to the smartphone screen.
titan quest
THQ’s Diablo -inspired classic was a smash hit 16 years ago, but it’s still as relevant as it was on day one. Frantic action, really big maps, a colossal isometric perspective and gameplay just as you remember it from your computer screen. A classic among classics.
ROME Total War
What to say about one of the masterpieces of The Creative Assembly around its Total War saga . In this case we will be able to manage the Roman legions and bring the glory of the empire to all its territories. With controls adapted to the mobile touch screen, it is one of the classic PC RTS.
Company of Heroes
Extraordinary RTS that initially arrived for PC and that takes us to World War II, where we must manage the allied troops in their assault on Europe. A game that was a hit at the time and that 16 years later maintains all the magic and fun of the original Relic title. A classic.
