Editor’s recommendation:
With popular games like “Tiny Tower” and “Pocket Planes,” NimbleBit has become one of the most recognizable and influential mobile gaming studios around, so it’s always a big deal when they release a new game.
“Bit City” has been out for a couple weeks now and is absolutely spectacular. Not only is it an in-depth city building game, it’s one that can be played with one hand.
The goal of the game is to build a city and reach a certain population level before moving onto the next city. Players click to build new buildings to make more money, while spending money on new vehicles and upgrades.
“Bit City” is available now for free on iPhone and Android.
Editor’s disparagement:
The fourth TV show in Netflix’s continuation of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, “Iron Fist,” fails to match the quality of the shows before it.
The main character, Danny Rand, returns to New York after being presumed dead for 15 years with a mysterious superpower and lots of enemies.
One of the best parts of the other Marvel shows was the character development of both the heroes and villains, which “Iron Fist” lacks. Viewers are thrown into the world with a naïve protagonist and many unlikeable side characters.
“Iron Fist” is not a bad show, but it isn’t nearly on the same level as the shows that came before it.
