5 Android Apps You Shouldn't Miss This Week (Part 101)

Atelier Resleriana

Price: Free with in-app purchases

Ateliera is a fairly well-known JPRG series, but now the experience is coming to mobile devices. The new game focuses on new characters and is very story oriented. Unlike many other JRPG games, the focus here is on small-scale missions and not so much on achieving personal goals and saving the world. In terms of gameplay, we thought the combat was decent, but the graphics aren't exactly top-notch for mobile devices. Unfortunately, there are also quite a few bugs in the game. Android Authority tested the game for about an hour, during which it crashed twice, and they also encountered a few small bugs. As the game receives further updates, hopefully the experience will become smoother, but it's still worth a try.

Ragnarok Origin: ROO

Price: Free with in-app purchases

Here is the sequel to Ragnarok Origin, which returns to the legendary world of Midgard. This time you have to protect the world from being destroyed by Loki's curse. On the face of it, the game is a good enough sequel, although the in-app purchases hinder an experience that we feel would be much better than a premium app. Unfortunately, this game, like the first one on this list, has a lot of bugs. They tested it on three different phones and found it crashed frequently on all but the Pixel 7. There were a few other glitches on that as well. Once these are worked out, Ragnarok Origin: ROO could still be a pretty solid mobile experience, but it's important to note that it hasn't received the improvements it needs right now.

Ready Set Golf

Price: Free with in-app purchases

Ready Set Goal is a new mini golf game with a lot going on. Although there are quite a few such games out there, this one still stands out for its decent cartoon-style graphics, easy-to-learn controls, special moves that add a special charm to the game, and some unique challenges and dangers. Ready Set Golf allows you to play against friends or even connect with players of your level from around the world. The downside of the game is that it has a lot of microtransactions and can be quite aggressive about it. On the other hand, no major bugs or gameplay issues were encountered during testing by Android Authority.

Eggy Party

Price: Free with in-app purchases

Eggy Party is a fun mobile game with whimsical kid-friendly characters and charming graphics. It is somewhat reminiscent of Nintendo Land from the Wii U, as the main action is set around an amusement park that gives you access to a variety of unique gaming experiences. There are quite a few different modes: Hide and Seek, Rope Race, Specialized Assault (a Splatoon-like shooting game), Crazy Brawl (fighting), Playground Construction, Baking Contest, and Who's Rotten (where you have to vote on who the main villain is, sort of as Among Us). The game is fun and easy for people of all skill levels, but some parts of the gameplay experience in the game are more intuitive than others.

YouTube Create

Price: Free with in-app purchases

The YouTube Create app was actually announced last year and quietly launched, but now it's finally making its way to more markets. YouTube Create allows you to edit classic YouTube videos and Shorts format recordings directly from your Android phone. You can record videos directly through the app or import existing files. There are also a bunch of handy features like transitions that automatically match the background music, automatic subtitles and an audio cleanup tool. You'll need a phone with at least 4GB of RAM to run normally, which means you'll need a mid-range phone or higher.
