Then, I kept the results to myself, because I hate everyone. I'll be honest: when I picked up my Nexus 7, I was incredibly worried that its 7-inch screen would be too small for playing chemistry puzzler SpaceChem on. I'm happy to report, then, that not only does SpaceChem play perfectly fine on the Nexus 7, it's also extremely crisp and looks just as good on Google's new tablet as it does on larger slates. Stick that in your production pipe!
It's a match-three game It might be based on the idea of manipulating differently coloured tiles to make 'em disappear, but Monsters Ate my Condo is far more than that.
Trust me, it just oozes personality and clever gameplay twists. What's great is that it actually plays better on the Nexus 7 than on any device I've tried before. This is primarily due to the fact that the tablet fits snugly into the palm of one hand, allowing you to swipe the condos easily while also enjoying the visuals at maximum resolution.
Great Little War Game has been a favourite of ours up here in PG Towers for yonks, thanks to its wonderful turn-based strategy action, deep gameplay, and underlying humour. The Nexus 7 proves to be a great home for this game, presenting you with transitions that are smooth as the butt of a rifle. While I generally adore the match-three town-building title Triple Town , I have to admit that the mobile version has always bugged me slightly, for the screen size of your regular smartphone doesn't really do the original browser game justice.
The Nexus 7 proves a far better fit for the game, meaning Triple Town is now very much my game of choice when "bussing it" with my Nexus. Don't take my word for it, though, give it a go yourself. It's freeeeeeee. We're reluctant to admit how many hours we've invested in free-to-play title Tiny Tower.
Let's just say, after countless days and weeks of organising tenants and stores, the number of floors in our tower nearly hit triple figures. The Nexus 7's screen appears tailor-made for Tiny Tower : not too big so as to make the graphics look too blocky, and just large enough to display every bit of detail.
I covered a PSP emulator in a previous article, but that was specific to one system. Today, I'll show you how to play almost any retro game on your Nexus 7 tablet. No need to go to the mom-and-pop video game shop to dig up a Super Mario cartridge for your old console that's seen better days. Get access to almost any old game and play them all—for free! This is a jack-of-all-trades of old-school gaming emulator.
Note: Emulators require games, called ROMs, in order to play anything. ROMs are a sort of grey area—it's technically illegal to download a game you don't already own, but old-school games no longer make money from sales. Whether you choose to download ROMs is your choice. Just keep this in mind. Choose your system, then browse to your game ROM.
Tap it to run the game. Get a lifetime subscription to VPN Unlimited for all your devices with a one-time purchase from the new Gadget Hacks Shop , and watch Hulu or Netflix without regional restrictions, increase security when browsing on public networks, and more.
One question, though. I absolutely loathe being forced to use on-screen controls. Even with the seven-inch screen on my Nexus 7, my fingers get in the way of my enjoyment factor, and the on-screen buttons steal precious pixels from the game. I have done some research regarding this issue, and have found many solutions.
Most utilize some sort of secondary device as a usually Bluetooth controller. It's clean, simple, unobtrusive, and fast. To complement Holo, Google released the fourth major Play Store redesign. Unfortunately, many devices have yet to receive this update—including my Nexus 7 tablet. There's no telling when it will hit our devices, but if you want the new design now rather than later, you'll need to install it manually.
So today, I'll show you exactly how to do that. This new Holo-style update is a visual refresh on the dated Gingerbread-era Play Store. If you ask me, it's clean, simple, and easy to use, just like an app store should be.
