He has been a fan of anime since his older sister introduced him to the genre when he was younger. Patrick is an avid fan of both video games and anime. Congrats to the Gourmet Guild and the rest of the Priconne girls for becoming our first Best Mobile Game winner!

This is a well-deserved win for such a great series. We fell in love with the colorful cast of characters, lovely stories, and the adorable chibi graphics. Princess Connect! Re:Dive was able to edge out the other heavyweight hitters on this list. Was this veteran title able to overcome the young guns to take home the Best Mobile Game award?Īnd our first ever Best Mobile award goes to… With a consistent release of new and rerun events, and updates to the main story, FGO was able to impress our staff enough to make the top 3 nominees. The music is still great and has held up over the years. Older characters aren’t left out either, as even their sprites and animations are getting much needed facelifts. The character designs are, of course, fantastic, and the sprites of newer characters and their NP animations are great to look at. The stellar main story isn’t completed yet, and part 2 is still being updated with new chapters, so fans still have that to look forward to. As the years have progressed, FGO has gotten many QOL updates as well as a multitude of new characters. Did Yoko Taro and crew do enough to bring home the title of Best Mobile Game?įate/Grand Order is the oldest of the three nominees, originally releasing in Japan in 2015. I personally love the song that plays during the opening credits. Like its predecessors, Recarnation music is outstanding. Of course, what’s a NieR game without incredible music. There is enough tragedy here for fans to get their fix. NieR games don’t normally have the happiest story, and Recarnation is no exception.

You’d have to play it to really understand what I’m talking about, but trust me, it looks pretty cool. In addition, the main story scenes are told with a unique, storybook aesthetic. Out of our three nominees, NieR Recarnation probably has the best graphics with nice 3D models. This game will probably be the one most recognizable to our readers, specifically because it carries the title of a beloved series, NieR. Were these lovely girls able to bring home the crown of Best Mobile Game? Priconne is an absolute treat, and clearly it impressed our staff enough for it to make the short list of nominees. Another lovely aspect is that each event story is accompanied by an original ending song, sung by some of the game’s voice actresses. All of the main and event stories so far are fully voiced, which is amazing, and not something many mobile games do. This colorful cast of characters are bolstered by beautiful designs and adorable chibi character sprites. While the gameplay is simple, the characters, music, and story are anything but. Well that wish came true, and I was not disappointed after playing it. Without further ado, these are our nominees for Best Mobile Game of 2021.Įver since its anime adaptation aired in 2020, I was really hoping Princess Connect! Re:Dive would release in English in the future. Lately, mobile games have impressed with their great characters and designs, music, stories, and sometimes, their addicting gameplay. This category was not only contested by games released in 2021, but also by titles released in the past that continued to impress us with their continued updates and support. Mobile games are great to play on the go when you don’t have access to your usual consoles, or when you only have time to play for a couple minutes. This year we at oprainfall are introducing a new category for our awards, one that highlights the best games released specifically for mobile devices. Editor’s Note: There are no previous winners listed since this was not a category we voted on in previous years.
