Indie RPG Sea of Stars hits iOS and Android on April 7<p>The indie RPG Sea of Stars is being released for mobile platforms on April 7. The iOS and Android versions are priced at just $10, which is a steal considering it cost $35 when it was first released for PC and consoles. Heck, it still costs that much on many platforms.</p>
<p>This is a mobile release, so it's not an exact port. The interface has been revamped to allow for complete touch control. It's also compatible with controllers, which is always a good thing with smartphone ports. The Android version has a couple of unique features. It offers Google Play Games achievements and cloud saves across various Android devices.</p>

Sea of Stars snagged best indie game in a particularly crowded field at The Game Awards two years back.</p>
<p>This is a fantastic retro-inspired RPG with more than a few things in common with the 1990s classic
Chrono Trigger. The story is utterly charming, the turn-based battle system is just deep enough and the art and character designs are gorgeous. It's more than just an homage to 1990s RPGs.</p>
<p>The older versions offer <a data-i13n="cpos:2;pos:1" href="
