Coming Tonight: ‘Baseball Superstars 2012’, ‘Hank Hazard’, ‘One Epic Game’, ‘Paper Monsters’, and More

Whoa! It’s Wednesday again, which is hard to believe because I’ve had such an insanely busy week. But, like most Wednesdays, the sun has risen, or potentially already set in your neck of the woods… And a whole new slew of iOS games have appeared. Like every other Wednesday since this whole Wednesday night release trend started, all of these games should be available at 11:00 PM Eastern. Or, potentially much earlier if you’re east of North America.

Also, yes, we’re running really low on relevant Wednesday images we haven’t used before for these posts. Anyway, on with the show!

 

 

Ant Raid, 99¢Forum Thread – We liked Ant Raid quite a bit when it hit as an iPad exclusive not too long ago. For more details about the game, check out our review. I’d imagine it’d translate well to the smaller screen of the iPhone too.


 

Baseball Superstars 2012, FreeForum Thread – Hey it’s Gamevil’s yearly iteration in the Baseball Superstars series! I really loved this series when they were buy-once-play-forever games and I’m really hoping launching at free with a variety of IAP isn’t going to kill it.


 

Hank Hazard, 99¢Forum Thread – It wouldn’t be a Wednesday without a cutesy physics game starring some sort of animal. In this case, it’s a hamster named Hank. By now, you probably know the drill!


 

One Epic Game, 99¢Forum Thread – This looks to be an endless runner with shooting and tons of variety in locales like Monster Dash. Although, this one has Epic right in the title.


 

Paper Monsters, 99¢Forum Thread – We’ve been following this game for what feels like a year now, and are totally excited it’s finally here. Imagine a Little Big Planet-style platformer for iOS devices. Yeah, I’m pretty stoked at that thought too.


 

The Brutal Spy, 99¢Forum Thread – While the title of this game might be a little generic, judging by the trailer (and the amount of blood) gameplay is anything but. The iTunes description mentions a UI issue with the iPhone 4S, so if that’s your device of choice you might want to hold off until an update hits.
