One of the great understated granddaddies of the action-RPG genre comes to iOS and Android thanks to DotEmu. When Adol washes ashore a storm-locked island and agrees to go searching for an ancient book, he doesn't suspect the destiny he's about to start out on, and how many things he'll need to defeat along the way by smashing into them really, really hard.
Samurai Shodown II isn't a game you'd expect to see on a mobile device. Virtual controls for a fighting game originally released 20 years ago? Doesn't sound like the most promising combination. But publisher DotEmu has gone to great lengths to make things work, handing you completely customizable button layouts and sizes as well as built-in MOGA controller support so you play without hindrance. A slidey touch screen may not have the give of a good arcade joystick, but it gets the job done!
