Welcome to the latest entry in our Bonus
Round series, wherein we tell you all about the new Android games of the
day that we couldn't get to during our regular news rounds. Consider
this a quick update for the dedicated gamers who can't wait for our
bi-weekly roundups, and don't want to wade through a whole day's worth
of news just to get their pixelated fix. Today we've got a new Tin Man
game book, a Disney endless runner, a modern take on Space Harrier, and a
zombie game that might actually be worth a look. Without further ado:
Gary Chalk's Gun Dogs
Another week (or so), another Choose Your Own Adventure-style RPG
book from Tin Man Games. This one comes courtesy of Gary Chalk, who
takes a Joe Dever approach
to brand recognition, and apparently favors Victorian fantasy to
D&D style. Like all of Tin Man's titles, this one uses a mix of
tabletop RPG elements and branching written story, though I must say
that the art is fantastic (especially if you're a fan of the Josh Kirby
style). Four bucks gets you in.

Tin Man Games presents Gary Chalk’s Gun Dogs, a gamebook with art by
the legendary illustrator Gary Chalk, famed for his work on the
legendary Lone Wolf series. Co-creating Gun Dogs is Jamie Wallis of
Greywood Publishing. You have been charged with treason against the
Empire and placed on death row. The Emperor offers you a choice: die a
slow and humiliating death or serve as a Gun Dog, a soldier assigned
impossible missions and tethered by a magical collar. The collar will
choke you to death if you disobey your mission orders.
Agent P DoofenDash
The first Where's My Water was pretty original for a mobile game...
so naturally Disney had to ruin it with a ton of sequels. And now
they're extending the Phineas And Ferb tie-ins with an endless runner.
Agent P DoofenDash, which is apparently rife with references to the show
(I wouldn't know), has you running, jumping, sliding, flying, and
performing other detritus of the endless runner genre. The game is free
to play, so expect plenty of in-app purchases.

Join Agent P as he chases down Dr. Doofenshmirtz to save the
Tri-State Area! An Agent’s job is never done. Dr. Doofenshmirtz decides
it’s time to get rid of Agent P once and for all! To accomplish this, he
unleashes every plot he can think of on the Tri-State area! Now it’s up
to Agent P and his fellow O.W.C.A. Agents to chase down the eccentric
evildoer and save the people of Danville!
Circuit Chaser
Circuit Chaser is basically Space Harrier with a new coat of paint,
and that's definitely a good thing. While it might look like an endless
runner at first glance, it's more of a rail shooter with three
dimensions of gameplay. Solid graphics and a unique visual design don't
hurt (though the F2P approach might). If your Sega Master System
emulator is collecting dust, give Circuit Chaser a chance.

Circuit Chaser is a new take on classic scrolling shoot ‘em ups,
which has been re-imagined in an exhilarating 3D perspective! Play as
T0NY as you shoot, fly and destroy your way across a stunning 3D
environment and collect precious circuits. Guide T0NY over and under
challenging enemies and obstacles in this fast and fun-filled endless
run & gun game. T0NY is one of many robots that are lined up for
incineration after a failed experiment. Help T0NY escape in his first
endless shoot’ em up game – how far can you take him?
Fight Fight Zombanite!
My stance on zombie games is well-documented, but never let it be
said that I let an interesting one pass me by. Fight Fight! Zombanite!
uses a mix of game types and genres including real-time strategy, tower
defense, and endless runner/driver to keep things interesting. You'll
have to stay on your toes to keep on top of the shifting game mechanics.
The graphics are nothing to write home about, but randomly-generated
terrain should make for a decent amount of replay value.

Fight Fight Zombanite!’ takes the zombie genre to new tactical
heights! Pick your survivor and begin building your team: each survivor
brings their own unique abilities to the fight including building
turrets, healing, laying bear traps and even calling in paratroopers!
‘Fight Fight Zombanite!’ has over 50 levels with over 6 mission types.
Rescue missions, driving missions, base fixing missions, defend
objective missions, holdouts, … FFZ an incredibly varied experience that
goes above and beyond the traditional zombie game!
