ECHO Gaming Staff February 25, 2025 Gaming 6 months ago

  TL;DR: March brings 10 new titles for mobile and Steam. Some are forgettable, but a few stand out—especially “Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake” and “Super Flappy Golf.”

10 Upcoming Games in March: Which Should You Play?

March has a batch of mobile releases that range from intriguing retro throwbacks to puzzling oddballs. Meanwhile, PC gamers get two free-to-play titles on Steam. Here’s the rundown on each release, plus a heads-up on a couple of personal favorites worth your time.

Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake (March 6)

If you grew up with side-scrolling platformers, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake might feel like coming home. You’ll control a little elf-like hero battling through creepy dungeons, facing off against huge bosses—like a crown-wearing frog. The classic retro vibes and Ninja Gaiden-style boss encounters give it big personality. If you’re into vintage platformers with modern polish, this one’s a great pick.

Valley of Architects (March 7)

Valley of Architects offers building and puzzle-style gameplay for $4. Unfortunately, there’s no trailer to see it in motion. The graphics look interesting, but it’s focused on constructing stable structures—a challenge if you enjoy figuring out how pieces fit together. If building puzzles aren’t your thing, you might want to skip it.

Be Brave, Barb (March 12)

Be Brave, Barb stars a green character wearing what looks like a pot for a hat. This one’s a platformer with a 3D rotation twist, so you’ll navigate levels that shift perspective. If you love goofy heroes and rotating worlds, Barb might be your new buddy.

Songs of Conquest (March 13)

Songs of Conquest hints at turn-based strategy on a hex grid, complete with character upgrades and a base you can improve. It feels like a cross between a tabletop board game and an action RPG. If you enjoy medieval fantasy, magical creatures, and a slow-burn tactical approach, this may be worth a shot. Just keep in mind there’s no gameplay footage yet, so it’s a bit of a gamble.

Match Creek Motors Custom Cars (March 17)

Classic car restorations plus Candy Crush-style puzzles? That’s exactly what Match Creek Motors Custom Cars delivers. You’ll see cool old cars, but you’ll also face match-three puzzles. If that puzzle style doesn’t fit your taste, you might find it distracting rather than fun. Still, if you can’t get enough of match-three, give it a look.

Pond Life (March 22)

Do you like feeding otters and learning about real species in pond habitats? Then Pond Life might be for you. It’s a gentle experience, more about education and collecting creatures than pure excitement. Younger players or nature fans could find it peaceful, but it might feel slow if you’re looking for action.

PBJ the Musical (March 26)

PBJ the Musical revolves around a peanut butter and jelly sandwich theme—and, yes, there’s singing. Unless you’re a huge fan of silly platformers or musicals, this probably isn’t a must-have. It’s quirky, but there are stronger picks in this list.

Super Flappy Golf (March 27)

What happens if you merge Flappy Bird and golf? You get Super Flappy Golf. It’s lighthearted, chaotic, and could be a solid choice for quick play sessions. You’ll tap to keep your bird in the air and navigate it toward the hole. If you enjoy those high-score chases, this might become a favorite. It’s definitely on our shortlist.

Legends of Heropolis (Free on Steam, Early March)

Moving to PC games, Legends of Heropolis is a free-to-play simulation with pixel art. You’ll rebuild a city, unlock heroes, and battle enemies in a simple yet potentially addictive loop. Sometimes these sims hide surprisingly deep gameplay behind basic visuals. Because it’s free, there’s no harm in trying it out if you’re curious.

Star Crafter (Free on Steam, Early March)

Star Crafter also hits Steam for free. It’s a blocky sandbox game where you gather resources, build, and reshape the world. The visuals are minimalist, but you can explore and create to your heart’s content. If you love open-world creativity and you’re not picky about fancy graphics, it’s worth adding to your library.

Personal Picks: What’s Worth Downloading?

After checking them all out, two mobile titles stand out: Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake for that nostalgic platforming rush, and Super Flappy Golf for straightforward, pick-up-and-play entertainment. If you’re on PC, both Legends of Heropolis and Star Crafter are free, so there’s little risk in trying them.

Looking for More?

Aside from this list, the creator behind these picks also recommends checking out Diablo Immortal if you want a free-to-play action-RPG experience that you can really sink your teeth into. Another personal recommendation is Raid Shadow Legends, especially if you’re into collecting heroes and tackling turn-based battles. Neither is in the official March lineup, but both are well-loved by many fans of mobile gaming.

March might not have the biggest blockbusters, but there are still a few gems to discover. Whether you want to take a gamble on lesser-known puzzle games, learn about pond critters, or jump into retro dungeons, there’s a little something for everyone. Grab a few and see which ones hook you!
