July 2024 might have not been perceived as very hot when it comes to the release of new games or might have come across as a slow month for new game release but Android gamers do have a lot to celebrate thanks to Netflix. Even though some like Disney Speedstorm have had a problem with rather aggressive monetization in their turn, others like Kingdom Rush 5 show that mobile series of classic android games can still be exciting. With enshrinement of once beloved franchises returning to the vacuum and all new adaptations of hit series this month definitely has something for everyone. Now, what follows is the list of Android games to look forward to in the month of July 2024.

Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance

Kingdom Rush games are a part of a popular tower defense subgenre starting from 2011, and Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance follows the examples of the previous games in this series, exceeding the players’ expectations in terms of both strategy and taste. This time, however, aligning Himself with the concepts of good and evil, the game makes available to the players a rather rich set of towers and abilities.

In the fifth part titled Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance, players are able to manage two heroes at once, which diversifies possibilities of defending. On the positive side of things, it can be said that the nuts and bolts of the game are still as reliable as ever – this is when it comes to the core gameplay experience; on the less positive side, it can be said that the game is comparatively shorter in length to the previous entries of the franchise, possibly in a bid to make players purchase more additional virtual items to continue playing. Still, Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance should satisfy the fans of tower defense genre and let the players have some exciting minutes.

Metal Slug: Awakening

For fans of classic arcade action, Metal Slug: Basically, Awakening is a return to the style of side-scrolling shoot’em up gaming that formed the first part of the series. This new generation installment takes the great series to Android so that everyone familiar with the series and those who have never played these games will be able to appreciate the heat and motion.

In Metal Slug: Reviving, PPU selects the protagonists among numerous available ones and goes on the operation to fight with the more or less ludicrous opponents. The game keeps the old school style of run-and-gun combined with an ability to play the game cooperatively with friends. While microtransactions are present, they follow a gacha system for character collection, adding an element of randomness. Despite the lack of controller support on mobile, the touch-screen controls offer an engaging experience.

Arranger (Netflix)

When considering the Netflix Games service, Arranger is an entertaining match-three type puzzle game with colorful graphics. Players navigate the sculptor Jemma and solve grid-based puzzles as they move objects and people to complete the challenges.

This game has a slow-paced puzzling system, and a guiding system which enables players to get through the more difficult levels; however, the graphics used in this game are very pleasant to the eyes. Netflix subscribers can play this game as a puzzle game with no ads or microtransactions, so they should get a taste of Arranger.

Dragon Prince: Xadia

Inspired by the popular Netflix series, The Dragon Prince: Xadia is an action RPG or an action role playing game in which people are challenged to explore the land of Xadia. And, being familiar or a newcomer to the show, the game is a good time that entails turn-based combat and character building.

A few of the actions that you are able to do include : select a character from the display that is specific to the series and engage in both missions and cooperative gameplay. The Dragon Prince: Xadia has a dungeon where one has to fight enemies with their swords , and at the same time look for elements related to the show. Thanks to entertaining gameplay and thought-out levels, this ARPG can be considered one of the best in the Play Store.

Minesweeper (Netflix)

As far as game shows are concerned, Netflix resuscitated the familiar Minesweeper with the help of traveling to beautiful locations in different countries. Walking away from the simple Minesweeper format, Netflix Minesweeper incorporates collectible stamps, stickers, and posters which give a progressiveness look.

In general, the game is versatile and has different levels with multiple types of challenges for those who have just started playing and experienced ones. Those who want to wander around can use Journey Mode while those who want to set certain conditions can use Custom Mode. With its features and good old and simple design, Minesweeper Netflix is somewhat a new twist to something old for positive reasons.
