In this daily blog (and video)-series I take a first impressions look at the best mobile games that I come by. Be sure to share your favorite mobile game with the rest of us in the comments below!

Lode Runner 1 is a completely free (no ads and NO in-app purchases) retro platform remake of the original Lode Runner game from 1983. The game features 300+ levels in addition to the user generated levels created through the in-game level editor.

The art style is gorgeous and although the first levels were way too easy for my taste (you literally couldn't die), the difficulty starts picking up after level 20. The d-pad control scheme worked surprisingly well in this game, as you can choose to use it as a joystick too.

I'm honestly just surprised that this has been published by Nexon, a company that typically does very heavy p2w games. Good job! :)
