About

PocketPlay Weekly started as a group chat between a handful of friends who kept recommending each other games. At some point we got tired of losing those recommendations in an endless scroll, so we built a small site to keep them in one place. It grew from there.

We cover mobile games across every genre we can get our thumbs on: RPGs, strategy, racing, puzzles, laid-back casual stuff. The one rule is that somebody on the team has to genuinely play a game before we write about it. No opinions borrowed from trailers.,We pick titles a few ways. Sometimes a game blows up and readers ask about it. Sometimes we stumble onto something weird and small and want to shout about it. And sometimes a studio reaches out, though a message never gets us to promise anything nice.,Everything here is written by humans on the team, edited by humans, and occasionally argued about in that same group chat. If we got something wrong, tell us and we'll fix it.

Lukas Brandt — Lukas has been reviewing mobile games for the better part of a decade and still gets motion sick in racing titles. He handles most of the RPG and strategy coverage.
