About

Pocket Quest started as a group chat between three friends who couldn't stop arguing about which mobile RPG had the better loot grind. At some point the arguments got long enough that we figured we might as well write them down and let other people join in.

We're an independent site. Nobody owns us, nobody tells us what score to give, and we buy or download the games ourselves like everyone else. That's the whole point.,When we pick a game to cover, we look for something with a bit of substance — a story that keeps you tapping 'next', a progression loop that respects your time, or controls that feel right on a touchscreen. Genre doesn't matter much to us. We'll happily review a slow strategy title one week and a twitchy arcade racer the next.,Every review means someone on the team actually played the thing for several sessions, not just the tutorial. We write about what stuck with us, what annoyed us, and who we'd recommend it to. If a game bores us, we say so.,We're a small crew and we like it that way. It keeps the writing personal and the opinions ours.

Lukas Brandt — Lukas has been reviewing mobile games for over a decade and still keeps a spreadsheet of every title he's finished. He handles most of the RPG and adventure coverage on the site.
