Framed 2 is a beautifully-crafted neo-noir puzzle game that is poised to keep the user engaged for countless hours.

One has to arrange the tiles of a comic book in proper order to allow the protagonist to complete the required tasks. With countless possibilities, expect a new challenge every time you play the game. Furthermore, the absence of dialogue and interesting background score adds a new dynamic to the game.

#9 Fortnite Battle Royale

Fortnite Battle Royale is similar to PUBG but offers a more arcade feel, appealing to casual gamers. A player is dropped onto an abandoned island and must eliminate other players to become the last man standing while also constantly outrunning a mysterious energy field.

Regarding the gameplay, the controls are fluid and do not take much away when playing the game on touch-enabled devices. The ability to build obstacles to eliminate players or to defend yourself keeps the user on the edge of their seat throughout the duration of the game.

However, Fortnite is not available on the Google Play Store, and one needs to download it from their website or through the Samsung Galaxy App Store (select Samsung devices).

Simply put, Crashlands is a survival game. However, with the way the game plays out, in addition to the humour aspect, one is transported to an entirely new experience that is seldom seen on the Android platform.

Gameplay-wise, Crashlands provides intuitive controls, making the game a pleasurable experience on touch-enabled devices. Moreover, the in-game mechanics ensure that it is challenging, and more importantly, fun to play for even amateurs and novice gamers.

Android 4.0 and up.


#7 The War of Mine

The unique backdrop of The War of Mine is what makes the game so fun to play in the first place. The game puts you in the shoes of a group of civilians trying to scavenge essential supplies in a war-torn city.

The War of Mine is beautiful visually and also offers enough choice to the user, thanks to loads of customisation options. Furthermore, in-game decisions affect the immediate outcome, delivering a truly emotive experience.

The addition of the Little Ones DLC adds a new dynamic to the game by putting the user in the shoes of adults, who are tasked to protect and care for children.

The Room: Old Sins is the fourth instalment of the series and is probably the best the company has to offer so far. One must investigate the mystery of a missing engineer and his wife while also trying to recover an artefact.

A great deal of depth is given to this simple plot with the help of stunning visuals and an eerie soundtrack. Multiple challenging levels, combined with additional detail to the environment, The Room: Old Sins positions itself as an engaging game that also keeps the user one his toes.

#5 Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth

Porting the Valkyrie to the mobile platform was always going to be a challenge for Square Enix as the game had developed a cult following since its launch way back in 1999. The company behind the franchise had a huge task to simplify the game while also keeping the core elements intact, which were responsible for making the game such a hit back in the day.

Simply put, Square Enix did a fine job with porting the Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth and the game is still as entertaining as the original. Tweaked UI, optimised graphics, balanced controls make the game a must have for every gaming enthusiast.

Android 4.4 and up.

#4 Life is Strange

Square Enix is known to produce engaging game titles every year and Life is Strange is no different. The game excels in storytelling with its great visual cues along with wonderful voice-overs and beautiful background score. The deeply engaging story combined with a touch of human emotion offer a deeper immersive experience, something that is rarely seen with mobile games.

Regarding the controls, Life is Strange was not built for the mobile but the company behind the game ensured that the touch controls are intuitive enough to give users the same experience as the PC version of the game.

Android 6.0 and up.


#3 PUBG Mobile

PUBG Mobile has become insanely popular in the last couple of months, making it virtually available on almost everyone’s Android phone.

Like Fortnite Battle Royale, one has to eliminate other players on an island to be the last man standing. In PUBG mobile, the shooting mechanics tilt a bit towards realism and offer a decent challenge. Visually, the game is pleasing to look at but is very demanding on the hardware.

Moreover, with the launch of a new map that is smaller in size, PUBG Mobile will feature faster-paced action, and ultimately, gaining a new set of fans.

Android 4.3 and up.

#2 Riptide GP: Renegade

All the games in the Riptide GP series have established themselves as formidable arcade racers and the Riptide GP: Renegade is no different. Furthermore, the intuitive controls of the mobile version ensure that people do not miss a whole lot of action seen on the consoles.

Like the previous games, it features fast-paced dynamic water racing with loads of variable factors such as interactive elements and animated obstacles, offering the gamer something new every time. Riptide GP: Renegade features an engaging career mode that should keep both casual gamers and professionals engaged for a good amount of time. Moreover, customisability is given a priority in this game, allowing the player to carefully craft the game to his needs.

#1 Alto’s Odyssey

This endless runner game is one of the best in the business. Since its launch, the game has received critical acclaim for its gameplay, stunningly beautiful visuals and compelling soundtrack.

Alto’s Odyssey precedes Alto’s Adventure, but with the slew of changes made to the gameplay, it hardly feels like a sequel. However, the company behind the franchise ensured that the game didn’t deviate from the original idea, giving fans a pleasurable playing experience.

Android 4.1 and up.
