Ringo Starfield September 20, 2022 No Comments

Merge Dragons is a mobile game in the puzzle genre, available on iOS and Android. It tells a story about a colorful, magical world known as Dragonia. For a long time, it prospered, its residents living without worry or fear. But alas, it was not meant to last. One day, Zomblins – vile creatures that resemble both goblins and zombies at the same time – attacked the land. Unprepared, dragons could not mount any defense against this unprovoked attack, and so, the land itself withered, drained of all life force through Zomblins evil presence.
But not all hope is lost. Through your efforts, the land can be healed, and the dragons, strengthened to eventually repulse Zomblins once and for all. What is the power that can accomplish this? Why, the magic of matching, of course. Through combining trees and landmarks, you can purify them, restoring their true form. Combining dragons, on the other hand, grows their power.
On your journey to cleanse the land, you will beat more than 180 levels, complete 81 different challenges, and familiarize yourself with 37 breeds of dragons. But if you want to embark on it using a computer, you will need to follow our guide. It will explain how to play Merge Dragons on PC or Mac.

Best data recovery programs for Mac

Ringo Starfield September 16, 2022 No Comments

Data recovery software does precisely what you’d expect, recover deleted or lost files. There are several use cases for such programs. The most obvious one, of course, is to restore accidentally deleted files. Don’t forget to check the Trash folder, though, if that’s what you want – perhaps you don’t need a complicated data recovery suite after all.
Other uses for data recovery tools are significantly less common, at least for your average user. It is possible for data to simply end up corrupted, especially when stored on an aging or otherwise damaged drive. Hard disk drives that are older than 5 years old are typically considered unreliable; they can last far longer than that without any issues, but you might lose a file or two in the meantime. This is especially true for laptops; their portable nature further strains the drive as it is subjected to things such as shakes. All MacBooks made after 2012 utilize SSD technology, which is generally more reliable, but if you have a MacBook made before that, data loss is a real possibility. Losing data thanks to viruses such as ransomware is also possible. Yes, macOS users have to deal with significantly less malware when compared to Windows users, but it does exist.
Either way, if you’re reading this, you likely have a need for such a program. We have compiled a list of the best data recovery software for Mac so that you can review and compare your options.

Ringo Starfield September 11, 2022 No Comments

Gunfire Reborn is an adventure game developed and published by Duoyi Games. It puts the players through an endless series of procedurally generated levels, where they have fight enemies in the FPS style. The players will also have the opportunity to earn various upgrades and pick up many different items and weapons during the course of a playthrough.

The game’s high level of randomization and a huge variety of items – there’s more than 100! – and heroes ensure a high degree of replayability. However, only PC, iPhone, Android, Xbox One & Series X/S, PS 4 & 5, and Nintendo Switch owners can embark on this adventure officially.

How to play Warpath: Ace Shooter on PC or Mac

Ringo Starfield September 3, 2022 No Comments

Warpath Ace Shooter is a mobile game available on iOS and Android. It has been developed by LilithGames. At its core, it is a base-builder combined with a real-time strategy, though the game also features some FPS elements. You will construct a military base and use it to recruit troops, assemble war machinery, and, finally, use these to launch attacks. Capturing territories around you comes with a number of advantages; the more resources you control, the stronger you can be militarily – if you have built the necessary infrastructure to turn these resources into actual capabilities. Controlling strategic resources will help you with that too, of course.
FPS gameplay is integrated in a manner similar to how State of Survival: Zombie War does it. You can embark on sniper missions to eliminate your enemies. Although not as deep as the main game mode, it still features various different guns and scopes. You can also engage in diplomacy by forging alliances with other players.
Although this is a smartphone-exclusive game, it is possible to play Warpath Ace Shooter on PC as well. Read the guide below to learn how this is possible.

How to play Outlast 2 on Mac

Ringo Starfield September 2, 2022 No Comments

Outlast 2 is a horror game developed by Red Barrels. A dark, and occasionally grotesque game, it stays true to its prequel. The gameplay has been largely unchanged; you are still expected to either run or hide from your enemies, with no combat options provided. This time, the task has been made even more difficult with the addition of stamina mechanics. To even things out, the developers added new ways for the player to hide – for example, you can now hide underwater. When it comes to the story, you do not need to worry about having to play the first game, because Outlast 2 features completely new characters and setting. This time, you will take on a role of Blake Langermann, an investigative journalist working together with his wife. This is a pretty dangerous profession, but this time, perhaps you have dug too deep. Researching a bizarre murder of a pregnant woman made a certain cult take an interest in you, and now, your only option is to run for your life. The game is available for Windows only, unlike the prequel. Nonetheless, it is possible to play Outlast 2 on Mac by following the guide below.

How to play MU ORIGIN 3 on PC or Mac

Ringo Starfield September 1, 2022 No Comments

MU ORIGIN 3 is a mobile MMORPG developed by FingerTips. Set in a fantasy world, the game offers a large world for you to explore (through walking, swimming, and even flying) and have adventures in – 5,000,000 square meters worth of fantasy landscapes, to be exact. At the time of writing, it allows you to play as one of four differnet classes: Swordsman, Archer, Mage, and Magus. And yes, these last two have rather similar names. The difference between a Mage and a Magus is that the former focuses exclusively on magic, while the latter has notable physical abilities as well. As the classes are customizable, you will be able to select the skills that your character has. This way, you can tailor the gameplay to your own liking; but don’t forget to choose skills that synergize. As skills can be changed in the fly, it is even possible to develop several different skill sets that suit different needs. Whether it’s PvE mob grinding, fast-paced 3v3 PvP Arena, or massive Server vs. Server wars, you can adjust your abilities for them all. Although the game is only available on iOS and Android, you can also play MU ORIGIN 3 on PC, and also on Mac. Read the guide below for detailed instructions.

How to play King Arthur: Knight’s Tale on Mac

Ringo Starfield August 13, 2022 No Comments

King Arthur: Knight’s Tale is a tactical role-playing game developed by NeocoreGames. It tells a tale of Arthur’s rival, Sir Mordred. The two engaged in a duel to the death – but there was no victor, as both managed to slay each other. The story, rather obviously, doesn’t end there – even though he was killed, King Arthur managed to escape death through fae powers, resurrecting himself in Avalon. But his sanity did not survive the ordeal – now he wishes only to bring death and destruction to this land. To deal with this menace, Sir Mordred was brought back as well. This is where your journey begins – you play as Mordred, tasked with defeating the mad king. You will take down many creatures – and humans as well – in highly tactical, turn-based combat. You will gather your own band of heroes, as you cannot battle alone. But heroes are not mere soldiers for you to command. They have their own agenda – make choices they don’t agree with, and they will leave or even betray you. The choices you make in this game are very real – King Arthur: Knight’s Tale features a branching-path campaign with multiple endings, so you need to actively work to get the result you want to see. Although the game is available on Windows only, you can play King Arthur: Knight’s Tale on Mac as well – the guide below will walk you through the steps.

How to play Icarus on Mac

Ringo Starfield August 12, 2022 No Comments

Icarus is a session-based survival game designed around cooperative multiplayer developed and published by RocketWerkz. You, among other prospectors, live on an space station orbiting planet Icarus. While it is a dangerous, inimical place with toxic air and hostile wildlife, the planet harbors untold riches of minerals worth exploiting. Most importantly, exotic matter – a resource so valuable that its existence on Icarus singlehandedly justified all investments made into that miserable rock. Yet, the place is so unhospitable to human life that special strategies must be devised to harvest its natural resources. Even in protective gear, humans can only survive on the surface of Icarus for a very limited period of time, requiring all prospecting to be done during short, time-limited missions. As a prospector, you will be required to promptly accomplish each missions objectives and evacuate in time. The orbital station cannot come back for those who have loitered – any delay may result in you being left on Icarus to die. The resources you harvest are not merely for sale, though – special technologies can be developed to assist you in accomplishing these painfully time-sensitive goals. Up to eight prospectors may embark on a single mission – cooperating will improve your chances of success. Although the game is available only on Microsoft Windows, you can play Icarus on Mac as well. How? Read the guide below to discover.

How to play Assetto Corsa on Mac

Ringo Starfield August 12, 2022 No Comments

Assetto Corsa is a racing game developed and published by Kunos Simulazioni. When translated from Italian, this means “Kunos Simulations” – which should give you a hint about the game’s overall direction. Indeed, Assetto Corsa is very much a simulation game at heart, possessing an incredibly sophisticated physics engine that accounts for things most game developers wouldn’t even think about. For example, heat cycles, flat spots on tires, and moving aerodynamic parts are all simulated. The game makes quite an effort to look well, too – a lot of work has been put into making various surfaces look realistic. Racing tracks present in the game are held to the same high, realistic standard – they are all meticulously-crafted recreations based on their real-world counterparts. You may have heard stories about game developers travelling to locations they want to put in their game to ensure accuracy – but the developers of Assetto Corsa went a step further. Using a laser-based technology, they have scanned real-world tracks. The in-game tracks are based off of these scans, allowing for an unprecedented level of accuracy. Overall a great racing simulation game, Assetto Corsa is not without its flaws, either. It is only available on Windows, Xbox One, and PS4 – with no Mac version. Still, it is possible to sidestep this issue and play Assetto Corsa on Mac anyway – read the guide below for instructions.
