Welcome back to Android Gaming Weekly, our weekly recap to focus on new releases. We still plan to cover upcoming releases and games we’re playing, but this column is dedicated to new games you can install and start playing right now. Check out our top picks and let us know if you have any suggestions for next week in the comments below.

Sonic The Hedgehog

Description: The Sonic game which started it all is now optimized for mobile devices! Race at lightning speeds across seven classic zones as Sonic the Hedgehog. Run and spin through loop-de-loops as you collect rings and defeat enemies on your mission to save the world from the evil Dr. Eggman. This re-mastered mobile version of the SEGA Genesis classic features the full “Sonic The Hedgehog” game, plus exclusive features.

You Don’t Know Jack

Description: Download the Spike TV Video Game Awards’ “Social Game of the Year” to your Android phone or tablet. You Don’t Know Jack is the #1 game in the world that contains both fart noises and trivia about Shakespeare. This free-to-play mobile version includes hundreds of full episodes of everybody’s favorite quiz show trivia game, with new, topical episodes added every week!

Carmageddon

Description: Carmageddon is the original freeform driving sensation, where pedestrians (and cows!) equal points, and your opponents are a bunch of crazies in a twisted mix of automotive killing machines. The game features anarchic drive-wherever-you-like gameplay and over-the-top surreal comedy violence. It’s the racing game where racing is for wimps.

Daddy Was A Thief

Description: Bank staff is usually friendly and polite. This time something went wrong! Gain as much money as you can! Hurry! Everyone try to catch you, but you are clever, aren’t you? Find combo speed boosts, shortcuts and grab power-ups to survive.

Zombie Derby

Description: Do you have the drive to survive? Americans have two favourite things; cars and guns. And no stinking zombie apocalypse is going to change that. Take control of your car to see how far you can get and how many zombies you can kill – and if you can actually escape with your brains intact. Four cars are available to get you to the final fort, each capable of holding progressively more loot. Ranging from the simple Redneck pick-up and the classy Hunter and to the tough Sledge and frankly-silly Harvester, you’ll enjoy throwing these bodged-up jalopies at the lines of the undead.

Can Knockdown 3

Description: Challenge your aim, hone your precision, and push your puzzle-solving skills to the next level in this insanely addictive game. This installment takes the critically acclaimed Can Knockdown series to all new heights- the physics-based carnival gameplay you know and love- and adds unique puzzles, adrenaline-charged challenges, and even more explosive action!

Cross Craze

Description: CrossCraze is a classic crossword puzzle game where you place letters on a board to form interlocking words. Play against the computer or with a friend. Frustrated by the time-wasting and cheating found on online game apps such as Scrabble, Words With Friends and Wordfeud? CrossCraze lets you choose a computer opponent to match your own skill level. It will never cheat, never take more than a moment to move and never abandon a game before the end. How refreshing!

Toy Defense 2

Description: Toy Defense 2 is the long-awaited sequel to the multi-million-download hit Toy Defense! Set in WW2, this action/strategy game is packed with more levels, amazing new features, a big selection of fighting units for each world, and more intense action than ever. Take part in various missions in a range of theaters of war, from the picturesque beaches and forests of Normandy to the deserts of northern Africa. The most epic battles of WW2 await you!

Dark Avenger

Description: Enter the dungeon and hack-n-slash your way towards immortality! The highly anticipated dungeon crawler arrives on mobile! Evil has awoken from its slumber. Our heroes must rise and send the forces of darkness back to the depths of hell. Choose from three heroic classes: Templar, Archer, or Mage. Equipped with enhanced, intuitive controls, you will experience the game like never before!

Attack of the Wall St. Titan

Description: A giant robot, built to destroy and subjugate the masses. Reprogrammed by an anonymous hacktivist to turn on your evil corporate creators, you are the Wall Street Titan. Occupy Wall Street with a giant robot fist! Selected by Indie Game Magazine as one of the best mobile arcade games of 2012!

Sonic The Hedgehog 4 Episode 1 now available in the Android Market for $4, but buyer beware



Sega has finally brought the long awaited sequel to Sonic The Hedgehog to the Android Market. Sonic 4, Episode 1 is now available in the Market for a mere $ 3.99 featuring 16 levels across 4 acts, 7 special stages, and 2 levels specifically made to use your device’s accelerometer.
The initial download is only 1.2MB, but like the release of Sonic CD before this, you have to download additional game data after installing it. Some users are reporting problems with Android 4.0 compatibility as well as problems downloading the game data. If you’re using Ice Cream Sandwich, you may want to hold off on purchasing Sonic 4 till they get it all sorted out.

Not too long ago we mentioned the Sega would be bringing another addition to the Sonic line-up to Android in the form of Sonic 4 Episode I. Although the current release is for Tegra-based Android device, another version could end up being released for everyone else.
Sonic 4 Episode I is the newest addition to the Sonic series of games and comes with all the classic moves Sonic and knuckles can do plus some brand new ones as well. Also, with the Android version, there are two exclusive levels for all of us Sonic fans to enjoy.

Sonic 4 Episode I Features:
- 2 EXCLUSIVE LEVELS!!! - Two exclusive levels build specifically for smartphones using the accelerometer.
- NEW MOVES - All of Sonic's classic moves are available, including the newer Homing Attack which will add a new level of control and excitement.
- CLASSIC SONIC STAGES - Race through 4 unique zones containing 4 acts each as well as 7 special stages.
- SPECIAL STAGES RETURN - A staple of the Genesis-era games, the special stages return allowing fans to collect the 7 Chaos Emeralds and unlock Super Sonic.
- REVAMPED CLASSIC BOSS BATTLES - Dr. Eggman returns with new and improved mechas and will go berserk when he accumulates damage.
There is something funny though about all of this. On the Sega website it is being advertised as Sonic 4 Episode II while on the Android Market it is labeled as Sonic 4 Episode I. We will have to go with what the Android Market is saying for right now although we do know Episode II is also on the way to Android in the near future.

So if you are a Sonic fan I need not say anything else, head over to the Android Market and grabs Sonic 4 Episode I for $3.99.
Update 11:09am January 25th 2012: It is Sonic 4 Episode 1. Sega has corrected their blog post about it which is what we figured it would be. Episode II is coming though so more Sonic goodness to look forward to. Also it is available for all compatible Android devices, not just Tegra ones.
Developer Website: Sega
Android Market Link: Sonic 4 Episode I
