the mobile market is being overwhelmed
by the Battle Royale craze fortnight is
on the way and of course Nettie's has
blasted pub G clones like a shotgun to
your phone so it was time to review the
official port of the self-proclaimed
original survival shooter pub G Mobile
which stands for people understand baked
goods oh it's not player unknowns
battlegrounds okay that makes way more
sense pub G mobile parachutes onto
Android and Apple devices
first up gameplay a sky diving Good Will
Hunting Last Man Standing free-to-play
battle royale extravaganza its Pub G on
mobile and it's exactly what you'd
expect it to be land on an island find
some gear and battle to the death
I won't delve too much into its
mechanics how this genre works is common
knowledge at this point you'll fall into
one of two categories those who dominate
and earn a chicken dinner or those who
are one of two left alive get taken down
by a bullet to the face then throw their
phone at a wall contemplating their very
existence nothing I know this from
experience or anything let's talk about
the controls by now I'm familiar with
how these controls are implemented and I
gave to say it works Auto sprint is a
welcome feature allowing you to run
towards a house while panning the
battlefield for potential enemies
shooting feels great and having a fire
button on both sides of the screen makes
scoped kills feel less tedious throw in
options to crouch or go prone giving
this game a level of strategy missing
from its Fortnight counterpart it's this
level of tactical gameplay that makes
for intense heart pounding action once
you get past running through empty
fields this version has an auto pickup
and equipped feature as well giving the
player better control in terms of
inventory management there's also a
quick tap inventory slot for those much
needed healing items in terms of how
this game feels to the PC version I'll
have to say it's a competent and fun
port to give an idea of how entertained
and engrossed I've become I'll tell a
little story while in squad mode My
partner and I took a romantic drive
around the countryside killing players
as we progressed to the centre of the
shrinking map we stopped at a nice
bed-and-breakfast had a picnic and
picked off remaining players with scoped
kills life was good then I lost my
partner to a savage man who wasn't
wearing any pants
I hid behind a tree out of fear for my
life he tipped away at my health I
frantically healed with my health packs
this little troublemaker was hard to
kill while I hid so I decided to flank
him he must have not seen me as I came
up from behind and took revenge for the
death of my picnic partner I won the
match but I lost a friend this is just
one of many fantastic tactical gameplay
experiences every moment is adrenaline
fuelled fun now I see what all the fuss
is about deciding whether to hide like a lost
puppy or advance like a ravenous dog
altogether its pup G in the palm of your
hands before I move forward I want to
address the various information about
bots populating the matches for the most
part it's true your first couple matches
will have BOTS that stand there like
brain-dead clones from my understanding
they're here to ease you into the
gameplay but rest assured
once you level up a few times you'll
have no choice but to get your ass
handed to you by real players so enjoy
the free kills while they last
next up graphics mix one part pup GPC
two parts pup G Xbox one and bake
yourself a pup G mobile cake the
graphics maintain the realistic approach
found in its older brothers while not as
pristine as its counterparts they are
still quite pleasing for mobile devices
draw distances noticeable yet expected
and textures are blurred but not
distracting it's not a horrible looking
game by any means in fact if you have
not seen any of the other versions you'd
be amazed at the simple graphical
presentation best of all the fluidity
during gameplay aiming running crouching
and of course shooting all feels like a
quality product rendered before your
eyes also you can change the style of
its graphics go for a more colourful look
something more real or just go with the
average pup G attire altogether I'm not
blown away by the graphics but with
quality gameplay I don't really have to
be the graphics are still wonderful for
mobile and just enough for taking down
an unsuspecting player taking a brisk
walk through a backwoods road finally
free playability why run around in your
undies when you can fought like a GQ
model as of now the game is absolutely
no in-app purchases okay our pigs flying
or as hell frozen over yes you heard me
no in apps however I have a feeling this
is only temporary
for now you complete missions for XP and
coin and also daily login bonus --is
then use unlocked
medics to purchase for your character as
of now it's all free but let's not
forget this is a mobile game so expect
to have some sort of loot boxes in the
future as always I'm completely
satisfied with using cosmetics as in-app
purchases this way the game stays away
from pay2win letting a player decide for
themselves if they want that retro disco
outfit or if they want to run a gun in
their birthday suit now is this official
battle royal game a downloaded hey give
it a try or a waste of space pub G
mobile shoots equips and rages its way
in as a downloaded yeah let me clear the
air here if you are not a fan of this
genre or pub G in general this port is
not going to change your mind in that
aspect it's more of a give it a try but
for those who enjoy this gameplay and
the urge for pub G on the go then
definitely download it the gameplay is
pub G the graphics are punk G and the
free playability is free G this game
takes what made pub keys so popular and
squeeze it down to a quality mobile
experience the tactical heart pounding
shooting is here and the fun
free-for-all addiction is ever so
present I yearned for more unexpected
scenarios and with each new match I got
exactly what I wanted it's slow and
methodical when it needs to be it's
frantic shooting when it wants to be and
I enjoyed every moment of it so if
you're a pub G fanatic who needs to be
the last man alive all while enjoying
some quality toilet time then download
it or if the excitement of wearing
hand-me-down clothes while blasting
under-qualified players in a world of
survival of the fittest is your cup of
tea then download this game as always
thanks for reading
time for me to earn my chicken cup
noodle dinner
