Out Now: ‘Dragon Quest VIII’, ‘Delivery Outlaw’, ‘Trainz Simulator 2’, ‘Romans In My Carpet!’ and More

TouchArcade Rating:

If you’re able to pull yourself away from Battleheart Legacy, which jumped the gun and released last night, then there’s a whole bunch of other new iOS games to occupy your time with. If you’re a fan of the PlayStation 2 game Dragon Quest VIII, you can now take it with you on the go on your iOS device. It seems to be a pretty faithful port, with the added bonus of one-handed, portrait-oriented gameplay. Also, there’s a number of cool puzzle games on the list tonight, as well as Adult Swim’s latest Delivery Outlaw which has just launched worldwide following a soft launch. Eli and I actually streamed many of these new games earlier today, so check out the archive video if you missed it. But seriously, just make sure you grab Battleheart Legacy, it’s stupidly good.

Delivery Outlaw

deliveryoutlaw

iTunes Desctiption

Crashing your race-car into the courthouse was bad…But community service as delivery boy to a crime boss? KIND OF AWESOME. So hop behind the wheel and put the pedal to the metal as JACK GUNNIT, disgraced daredevil-turned-deliveryboy, forced off-road and outside the law by the mysterious LILY BREAKER.

You’ll need to keep your skills sharp and your thumbs twitchy as you launch, flip and tumble your fragile and OFTEN LETHAL cargo through nightmarish terrain and deadly pitfalls.

The clock is ticking, so be quick and handle with care— especially over the dynamite pits.

Don’t Eat People!

iTunes Description

It’s feeding time in the village! That means yummy sacrificial animals just for your big monster mouth. But be careful not to eat any people…or else! In Don’t Eat People, you control several hungry monsters whose appetite can only be satisfied by a record-breaking number of tasty bulls… but for some reason villagers are hurling themselves off the cliff along with the animals.

You have one simple goal… DON’T EAT PEOPLE!

Earn points for every bull you eat, and bonuses for special bulls that appear at random. The controls are easy – just tap and hold to close the monster’s mouth and watch the villagers bounce off your head with hilarious results. If you eat a single person, it’s game over!
