Alto's Adventure Free for Android from 11 Feb 2016 (Google Play) (USD 4.49 on iTunes)

180

Alto's Adventure was one of the best games to launch on the iPhone last year — the beautiful visuals, addictive gameplay, and chill soundtrack made for a uniquely laid-back and satisfying experience. Developer Ryan Cash from Snowman announced this would happen way back in September, but the launch date is finally here. The game will arrive on February 11th and will offer an identical experience to the iOS version, with one key exception. Alto's Adventure will be free for Android players.

Please remove if it is not a deal.

      Might want to take 30secs to read the article linked.

      In the end, Alto's Adventure will offer some paid opt-in bonuses for players who "might need a little extra help, or otherwise want to show their support." But, Cash stresses that the core experience is identical between iOS and Android — the whole game "can be enjoyed start to finish, exactly as it can be on iOS." Given the quality of the title, we're willing to trust Cash here and believe that Alto's Adventure won't nickel and dim Android players. Indeed, that'll be better for the entire gaming ecosystem. The more free-to-play games that treat players as human beings instead of bank accounts, the better we'll all be.

    Totally worth paying for (I have it on iOS) and knowing that it's free on Android I can only say grab it now!

    It's a great game. The only quirks, some levels require a fair bit of luck and the music (while good) is very repetitive.

  • I personally would rather they charge a few dollars for a game to get balanced experience than in game purchases. Otherwise at some stage the game would become too hard for free player.
