Mobile games have come a long way from simple entertainment, like guessing the word in the “Field of Miracles”, to narrative games created specifically for Android and iOS devices. We've rounded up the best mobile phone games to show you a few that have been released over the past five years.

Here are the best mobile games according to TehnObzor

Alto's Adventure

Alto’s Adventure is an incredibly beautiful and interesting game. I've played many games about snowboarding, but none of them were so addictive with their beautiful graphics, weather changes, and locations.

Along the way, you will escape from escaped avalanches, jump over rocks, abysses, and also do various tricks on a snowboard. The product takes us to the beautiful world of the Alpine hills with different weather conditions.

The game is really interesting, and most importantly, it has levels and tasks that you must complete.

The musical accompaniment also does not disappoint and adds even more atmosphere. And if, for example, you play with a headset, it will be a bomb. I advise everyone to play Alto’s Adventure. Its weight is quite small, and on Google Play it is distributed completely free of charge.

Hidden Folks

Hidden Folks is a new hidden object game available for Mac, PC, Linux and Apple devices.

Its essence is that in order to complete a level (and there are at least 15 of them), you must find hidden people (or objects) in hand-drawn locations. Each level contains up to hundreds of hidden objects and almost 200 unique interactions. You can touch every painted bush or pebble; even if you poke it somewhere at random, you can find a whole bunch of hidden objects.

This is an amazing and fun indie game that is relaxing and mindful at the same time. I would recommend Hidden Folks to anyone who wants to stretch their brains without too much fuss. Considering how challenging each level is, you'll want to play this on a tablet rather than a phone.

Ridiculous Fishing

Ridiculous Fishing in Russian sounds like - Ridiculous fishing. In the game, we play the role of a fisherman named Billy, who, apart from hitting fish with a shotgun and waving a fishing rod, can’t do anything else. All that is required from the player is the absence of trembling hands, because the product requires very precise control of the accelerometer.

The gameplay itself is very simple, we cast a fishing rod and while the hook and bait sink to the bottom of the sea-ocean, we try to avoid collisions with fish. Once the fish is hooked, it must be quickly pulled to the surface.

Then, in the process, you become a witness to a real extravaganza. The fish, subject to the force of inertia transmitted from the rod, beautifully flies into the air, where Billy shoots it from all on-board guns.

The Ridiculous Fishing toy turned out to be simple, but at the same time very fun and addictive.

Lara Croft Go is Square Enix Montreal's best work to date. The entire game world is connected here, it is a giant temple containing many rooms that need to be explored and explored in order to find the keys and get to the ancient artifact, which is the main goal.

The game consists of 5 chapters, including 75 missions, which differ from each other in both visual aesthetics and obstacles. There are no restrictions on the number of steps in Lara Croft Go. The levels consist of large locations, which gives a sense of freedom and dynamic events.

An important feature of this game is the presence of hidden treasures in locations that can be very difficult to find. Treasures allow you to unlock various artifacts. My impression of the product is purely positive. The game is really addictive, otherwise it would not have made it to the top of the best mobile games.

Neko Atsume

The plot of Neko Atsume is quite simple. You need to buy furniture, toys and cat food to attract more fluffy and beautiful cats to your yard. Sometimes cats behave unpredictably. It doesn't sound very exciting, but after playing it for a while, your hands will instinctively reach for your phone to check if any new furry has dropped by.

Here you can also expand your yard and reconstruct your house in four different styles. You can take pictures of cats to share with friends online. Throughout the game you will meet different individuals, some of them are not exactly cute, there are also rare breeds, and sometimes unexpected ones - for example, similar to a cat.

The Neko Atsume toy is shareware, however, during the game you can purchase various advanced options for an additional fee.

1979 Revolution: Black Friday

1979 Revolution: Black Friday is a mobile adventure game that is based on real events and eyewitness accounts. The action takes us to Tehran before 1979. We will have to embody the image of a photojournalist in the late 70s in Iran, documenting the unrest and political upheaval that occurred there.

The game's start looks promising, but in reality, both in terms of gameplay and graphical implementation, 1979 Revolution: Black Friday is a so-so product.

The entire game is divided into episodes. We have the opportunity to take part in some dialogues, but our decisions during these dialogues do not in any way affect the development of the plot. In my subjective opinion, the product turned out to be unfinished and without Russian localization.

Desert Golfing takes place in an endless desert where the player can control the golf ball and determine the direction and strength of the shot using one finger. The golf course is made of sand, which makes the physics of the ball unpredictable.

The goal of this game is for the ball to reach each hole in the fewest number of strokes. However, when this happens, Desert Golfing starts all over again. Thus, the game never ends, and the result in the end will depend solely on how long you play it.

Threes!

Logic game Threes! (Triples) invites you to connect numbers on a given playing field in order to score the maximum total number of points. You can only combine identical numbers with the exception of one and two. The combination of numbers also occurs in certain places - at the border of the playing field or near another number.

Control here is carried out by gestures in four directions, for example, an up gesture moves all the numbers up, and several new numbers appear on the field.

The meaning of Threes! is to get the largest number by the time there are no more possible moves left. The interface is quite simple, but at the same time very clear.

Monument Valley

Monument Valley is one of the best products of 2014. Here we will have to play the role of the girl Ida. The game consists of several chapters. The further you go, the more exciting and complex the plot becomes.

When playing Monument Valley, you can relax and enjoy a fantastic world with its own mysterious atmosphere. Everything here serves a single purpose - to immerse you in passing and solving local puzzles.

This toy can rightfully be called a masterpiece; it’s not for nothing that we included it in our rating of the best mobile games.

At the beginning of You Must Build a Boat, the hero is on a small boat along with two artificial characters, guides, who instruct the player on how to build a large ship to achieve his goal.

The ship is built by going through the dungeon, collecting resources and defeating monsters. As the player progresses, a store appears where you can upgrade your character's attributes, select captured monsters as companions, and much more.

The ultimate goal of You Must Build a Boat is to build a big ship to complete the journey successfully.

Alphabear

Alphabear is an original puzzle game from Spry Fox, developer of the award-winning Triple Town. You need to form words from letters on a grid, each word makes an animal. Each bear gives a certain number of points; the larger the word, the larger the animal.

As your character grows, he unlocks surrounding tiles that can be used to create more brethren. The bears you win can be used as bonuses in future games! They increase the points you earn for using certain letters or spelling certain words, extend the timer, increase or decrease the frequency at which letters appear, and much more!

Minecraft for mobile

So many games have already been created on Android that you can spend hours trying to find something worthwhile with an interesting plot. We spent a little time to prepare a list of the coolest and most interesting games for Android of various genres.

So, meet the cool Android games that made it to the Top 5!

Top 5 games for Android 2019-2020

Gorogoa

Gorogoa is the best Android game in its genre, which has received several prestigious awards and has a lot of positive reviews. The game has been dubbed the “standard puzzle game,” and for good reason. After all, titanic work was invested here for 5 years by one person.

The gameplay here is simple: you need to arrange 2.5D pictures by putting together a puzzle. Each tile in Gorogoa is something like a portal, allowing you to move both in time and in space. It is difficult to describe and understand everything that happens on the screen.

The developer managed to break the mold and create a cool brain simulator that is not repulsive or boring, despite its rather high complexity. So it’s deservedly in the top!

Fortnite Mobile

The main competitor of PUBG Mobile was the Android game Fortnite Mobile, which took away part of the audience on all platforms.

What's so special about it?

Here the same 100 players land on a large island with a pickaxe in their hands, look for additional weapons, armor and fight among themselves for first place. Maps, items, objects and mechanics are all familiar and familiar.

The main advantage of Fortnite Mobile is the ability to play together with users of PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch. Everything that was in any version of the shooter is now available on a mobile device. Plus a single account for all platforms.

Despite the fact that Epic Game has squeezed all the juice out of touch controls, there are still some lags. But... the top game is played on smartphones. Although it consumes resources immeasurably.

And, of course, it is worth noting that Fortnite cannot be found on the usual Google Play. The developers went their own way: first you need to download the installer from the official website, then the bootloader sets its security parameters, after which it is possible to install the full game. All updates occur when the game starts.

Life is Strange

After 3 years, the game Life is Strange has reached the Android platform. This is a poignant story about the life of a teenage girl named Max, who discovers that she can rewind time and effectively change the world around her. A unique and unusual adventure that touches your very soul.

It is worth noting that the game is quite demanding in terms of hardware power.

Life is Strange is a true emotional detective story in which all actions affect the future. And this game has long earned a reputation as one of the best adventure games.

Asphalt 9: Legends

Another version of interesting racing games from Gameloft – Asphalt 9: Legends. This is a really cool game with cool licensed cars that please the eye and the heart - from the ordinary Mitsubishi Lancer to the dazzling Koenigsegg Regera. The tuning process is similar to previous versions like and. Effective camera angles, vibrant special effects, and incredible graphics make the game a contemplative pleasure.

To win the race you need minimal physical movements: send the car into a drift, choose trajectories, control the brakes when cornering, turn on the nitro. The sports car drives itself. And this is no coincidence.

Asphalt 9 introduces the TouchDrive autopilot system, artificial intelligence automatically controls your car. However, those who want to take control into their own hands can switch the mode to the usual control buttons or gyroscope in the settings. It's like choosing between normal mode and pro mode.

Prove that you are worthy of legend status in Asphalt 9. Complete career missions from more than 60 seasons and a total of more than 800 races, discover new locations, collect parts and cars according to drawings.

★ The best game on Android ★

PUBG Mobile

The top would not be completely complete if we did not mention the best Android game of 2018 according to Google.

PUBG Mobile is a massive game that pits 100 players against each other on one of several available islands with plenty of weapons and ammo. You can take the position of a single player and hunt down opponents, or become part of a team to defeat your opponents.

Choose your landing spot wisely, as some sneaky players may shoot you down. It is worth noting the well-implemented navigation on the map. PUBG Mobile has a first-person view that allows you to plunge into the atmosphere of surviving hundreds of opponents.

Of course, 100 players are not always real people; there are also bots. As for the maps, each one has a unique weapon. There are also vehicles such as UAZs, jeeps, motorcycles, and buggies. They will help you travel long distances.

The interface is as simple as a plug, nice colors, convenient placement of navigation elements. There is an in-game store for various skins.

When it comes to graphics, PUBG Mobile outperforms similar games, especially at maximum settings. On budget Android devices you can also play at acceptable settings; PUBG Mobile Lite has been developed for very weak devices.

By logging into the game every day, you can receive good bonuses. As a bonus, after 7 days of such visits you can receive a valuable box of clothes. There are also bonuses for fulfilling the conditions of the season.

Hello, dear readers. The Gamebizclub team is in touch, and we continue to talk about genres of games for PCs, consoles, tablets and smartphones. In all published ratings, we paid attention to PC games, and today we will move on to a new and practically unexplored segment and tell you about the best games on Android.

Mobile games have literally burst into the life of every person who has a smartphone or any other gadget with a large screen. Every day, developers and publishers publish new games on Google Play (formerly Play Market), come up with something interesting and introduce special features to attract the attention of users. That is, you and me.

There are so many games on Android that you can spend hours sorting through them trying to find something really worthwhile, without viruses and intrusive advertising, with an interesting plot and game modes without the Internet and over the network.

Important: we recommend downloading games only from Google Play and not trusting apk files downloaded for free from the Internet. All games on Google Play are virus-free. If you download and install an apk file from an unverified source, you may get a virus - as a result, attackers can steal passwords from bank cards, email and other accounts. Or store important data on one device and play on another - something like this.

So that you don’t waste precious time, we have prepared a rating of the most popular Android games of different genres, made a short review of each game and added system requirements along with important characteristics. In our top 30 we included games that we like, plus those that have received good ratings and reviews from players, so feel free to select the coolest applications for your devices, install and enjoy the process.

29. Gangstar Rio: City of Saints

We decided to give twenty-ninth place to Gangstar Rio: City of Saints, an action-thriller about gangster wars in Rio de Janeiro. In appearance and graphics, the game is very similar to GTA, and the plot is appropriate.

You will find yourself in the role of a member of a criminal gang that is beginning to take over the illegal side of life in a large city. You will start from the very bottom, you will shoot and rob, complete tasks and earn money, rise through the ranks in the crime syndicate - and so on until the character becomes the main mafioso in Rio.

Doesn't remind you of anything? Mafia 3, GTA 5 - but only on Android, with appropriate graphics quality and almost perfect gameplay. After all, smartphones are not well suited for such games, so sometimes problems arise with controls. Gangstar Rio: City of Saints is protected from hacking and copying, and costs 529 rubles on Google Play. Want something similar, but free? Install Gangstar Vegas - everything is the same, only in a different city.

28. Wild Blood

In twenty-eighth place is Wild Blood - a newfangled action game about knights who for some reason look like characters from Lineage 2 and other MMORPGs. But this, on the contrary, gives the game a special and unique style, making it recognizable.

In short: the action takes place during the time of King Arthur, who suddenly began to be jealous of his wife for the faithful knight Lancelot. King Arthur's sister Morgana took advantage of this weakness and, with the help of her brother's blood, opened a portal to a parallel world. From there, a horde of demons controlled by Morgana poured in, with the help of which she quickly usurped the throne.

You will find yourself in the role of Lancelot, who, despite the disfavor of the king, must vacate the throne and return legitimate power to the throne. Take a sword, shield, spear and other piercing and cutting weapons of destruction and go to establish justice. In the story, you have access to many interesting missions and impressive fights, but there is also multiplayer. In online mode you can fight in 4 vs 4 format.

27. Into the Dead 2

In the next twenty-seventh position is Into the Dead 2, a zombie apocalypse survival simulator made in the newfangled runner or runner format. Here your main task is to run as far as possible and not let the zombies catch you. If a zombie grabs the main character, it will immediately eat his brains-and-and-and...

Zombie games are a popular category. We advise you to look at ours and download something to your computer. Or install Into the Dead 2 on your smartphone and run from zombies until the battery in your gadget is completely drained. There is no other way, because the game is exciting.

Stunning graphics along with dynamic gameplay and a simple plot, a wide variety of zombies and methods of destroying them, various events and modes literally do not allow you to tear yourself away from the smartphone screen. The main thing is that it is free on Google Play, but sometimes the advertising is annoying.

26. Star Wars: Battlegrounds (Arena of Force)

Strategy is a rare genre for smartphones, but Star Wars: Battlegrounds fits almost perfectly into this format. You will assemble a dream team of Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Chewbacca and other characters and fight with an almost identical team controlled by another person.

There are a total of 60 heroes in the game, which are not so easy to get into your team. To do this you need to win the battle or get an achievement. Each character has unique skills and abilities that help tip the scales in their favor. You can also develop and strengthen your team with the help of rewards received after successful fights.

25. Minion Rush: Despicable Me

Minion Rush is firmly in the next twenty-fifth position - a wonderful game for children and teenagers, based on the famous cartoons Despicable Me and Despicable Me 2. In fact, this is a runner where you, as one of the minions, will run along the path and dodge obstacles on her.

The whole game consists of small races that take place in the main locations of the original cartoons: Gru's Laboratory, the City, Minion Beach, El Macho's Lair, the Volcano and other places known to fans of Despicable Me. During the passage, you will collect coins and bananas, which you will later use improve the abilities of minions and buy them equipment.

And during the races you can do all sorts of nasty things - shoot down pursuers, play dirty tricks on local residents, and much more. For each nasty thing you do, you will receive separate points, which at the end of the game will show which of you is a villain - a real evil genius or a cardboard plush villain out of a box. We recommend Minion Rush to all children and adults. And we move on.

24. Angry Birds 2

Our list continues with Angry Birds 2 - the continuation of the legendary arcade game about the war between angry birds and clumsy pigs. You've most likely already seen this game or at least heard about it. So, compared to the first part, the second looks a little better - the developers added different features to the gameplay, new bosses and added unique abilities to each bird.

There are a total of 1370 levels in the game, and if you get tired of it, go to online mode and compete with real people. This is much more interesting than shooting at the pigs' buildings an infinite number of times and destroying the houses of the pig bosses. If you defeat your opponents in the party, you will receive gems and pearls, move to the major league and become one of the champions.

In addition, the game has many more interesting modes and a mountain of all sorts of little things that make the gameplay even more interesting. That's why they love it - it's free on Google Play and more than 50 million people have downloaded it.

In general, Dead Trigger 2 is a great game for fans of shooters and zombie apocalypse. It's free on Google Play and has 10 million fans. Everyone play.

22. Car Driving School Simulator

We decided to give twenty-second place to Car Driving School Simulator - this is a very useful driving simulator for the city and the highway. Here you will find yourself driving a foreign car in a large and busy city, you will find yourself in the most common situations: traffic jams, unregulated intersections, emergency situations, and so on.

You must strictly follow the traffic rules, follow signs and traffic lights, give way to pedestrians and give way to special vehicles. There are many tasks in the city where you will show all your parking skills - sometimes you will have to stop in the most unexpected places.

21. Assassin's Creed Pirates

Next up is Assassin’s Creed Pirates – an excellent action game about pirates, a tough boarding game and a gunners’ duel. It's not hard to guess that the action takes place in the Caribbean, and you will find yourself in the role of captain of a pirate ship.

You will recruit a crew, purchase supplies and weapons, explore the ocean, look for treasure and fight other pirates. Along the way, you will meet assassins and Templars, take part in their long-standing confrontation, meet Blackbeard, Ben Hornigold and other notorious thugs, and find the treasures of La Buse.

20. Time Crash

In twentieth place we have Time Crash - an epic runner with non-standard gameplay about parkour. Here you will find yourself in the role of a powerful super agent, capable of moving very quickly. He must outrun his opponents and prevent them from reaching the finish line in front of him.

In Time Crash you will greatly train your reaction - you will run on a flat surface, cross a maze, slide and use acceleration, run along walls, knock down doors. There will be many different obstacles on your way, including some dangerous to your health. And each level will be more difficult, and by the end of the game the passage will turn into something almost impossible.

The main feature of the game is constant updates. There are 15 hand-made locations available in the storyline. But every day the game generates a new level to complete in endless mode, and the results of its completion are published in the global list. You can get there too, fortunately there are not so many competitors - the full version of Time Crash for 199 rubles was downloaded from Google Play by 50 thousand people.

19. Don't Starve: Pocket Edition

Our list continues with Don’t Starve: Pocket Edition, a survival simulator with an unusual plot. Here you will not meet crowds of zombies and will not shoot in all directions; the game is not about that at all. Imagine that during the day you can do whatever you want, in the evening you get ready for the night, and at night a terrible monster comes for you. You can't defeat him, but he's afraid of fire. What to do in this case? That's right, light more fires and don't let them go out.

In Don’t Starve (from English - don’t starve), your hero will not only get food, sleep and light fires. In addition to the traditional indicators of life and satiety, he has nerves. And if the nerves cannot withstand the tension created by the monster coming at night, anything can happen to the hero, for example, other monsters will begin to appear.

Naturally, the main character must survive in harsh conditions and find a way home, avoiding falling into the clutches of a monster along the way. This is very difficult, but still possible to do. The game is somewhat similar to popular TV shows about survival in the wild, only here there is also mysticism.

The price of Don’t Starve: Pocket Edition on Google Play is 309 rubles, we awarded it nineteenth place for its original idea and cool execution.

18.Hill Climb Racing 2

Eighteenth place goes to Hill Climb Racing 2, a continuation of the mega-popular first part of Hill Climb Racing about racing and competitions. The game contains a description of various types of tuning and improvement of the car, the actions of the pilot Bill Newton and much more, but this is not the main thing.

In Hill Climb Racing 2 you will simply race a car, compete with other racers, upgrade your car and improve your results even more. The main character will not calm down until he breaks all the laws of physics and flies far, far away in his car.

The game is free on Google Play and has been downloaded 50 million times - people really like it. And we recommend it too.

17. Plants vs. Zombies 2

We couldn't help but include Plants vs. in our rating. Zombies 2 is an epic tower defense arcade game from PopCap Games. The Android version continues the plot of the first part, and at the same time its gameplay and plot are at a higher and more professional level.

You will lead an army of plants and fight a legion of zombies who really want to uproot all the flowers and other seedlings and simply eat your brains. Plants will protect you, the main thing is to establish competent defense and not allow at least one dead thing to reach the border of your field.

In this part you will receive new plants that have unique capabilities. You will also be transported to Ancient Egypt, the Distant Future and other locations that were not in the first part. Plants vs. Zombies 2 is free and very popular, with more than 100 million people downloading the game on Google Play.

16. MORTAL KOMBAT X

In sixteenth place is MORTAL KOMBAT X - the continuation of the legendary saga about brutal fights and martial arts. In this part you will meet the main characters again: Sub-Zero, Kitana, Johnny Cage and others. There will also be new fighters with their own stories, such as Jax's daughter named Jacqueline Briggs.

You will find yourself in a world of bloody battles, choose a hero and do nothing but fight. At the same time, the hero can be upgraded - increase parameters, discover new talents and special moves, adjust his appearance and much more. You will also see the next continuation of the Mortal Kombat story and fight in the arena against other people. Powerful and dynamic fights await you, free on Google Play.

15. FIFA Football

In fifteenth place is FIFA Football, a simulator about the coolest sport, football, developed by Electronic Arts. The game was created under the official FIFA brand, so it features more and less significant teams and players from the world's leading championships. Do you want to have Messi, Ronaldo, Boateng, Hummels and Zobnin in your team? Install FIFA Football - it's free.

You can recruit almost any football players from different leagues into your team. Choose from 16,000 players, create a team in Ultimate Team mode, play matches with other people and see who understands football better. FIFA has an online mode. In general, the Android version of FIFA turned out to be very realistic: football players look like themselves in real life, it is unrealistically difficult for weak teams to get into the Champions League, the grass is green, the ball is round, and so on. We recommend this game to all football fans.

14. Geometry Dash

In fourteenth place is Geometry Dash, a mega-popular free arcade game released in 2013. At first glance, it may seem that it is very simple: pixel graphics, a minimum of details, some squares and rectangles. But look, it's been downloaded 100 million times on Google Play. Moreover, most of the downloads occurred in 2014 and 2015.

Despite its simplicity, Geometry Dash is very addictive. You must use the cube and other means to reach the end of the level, avoiding obstacles and flying through dangerous areas. In many cases, logic and speed of reaction will be required - everything happens very quickly, so sometimes there is no time to think.

The speed of the gameplay is addictive and does not let you tear yourself away. It is enough to launch the game once, and you will not be able to tear yourself away from it. There is no network mode here, but there are two versions - Lite with advertising, and Full edition without advertising for 109 rubles. The full edition has been downloaded by more than 1 million people, it has all the levels and everything works stably.

13. Modern Combat 5: eSports FPS

In thirteenth place is Modern Combat 5: eSports FPS - a classic first-person shooter about war and combat, the plot of which is based on the motives of the Third World War. The developers say that this is the first game of its kind where you can create a team and fight with other people from different countries. And all this on a smartphone.

For fans of single-player mode, several missions are available, during which you need to destroy the main terrorist who threatens the entire Earth. And in online mode, you will find yourself on the battlefield as part of a squad, destroying the enemy, capturing control points, completing squad missions and receiving achievements.

Network mode is the main feature of the game. Here you can create a team of 8 people, each will choose a suitable fighter class (Assault, Sniper, Scout, Support, and so on), get everyone together and arrange a dynamic online battle with other teams. That's why it's called eSports, which means cybersports.

Modern Combat 5: eSports FPS is a new free game that has already been downloaded more than 50 million times. More than 2 million people voted for it on Google Play, and very little time has passed since its release.

12. Subway Surfers

We decided to give twelfth place to Subway Surfers, an adventure simulator about running on a railroad. This game is perfect for boys and girls, and also for adults. It doesn't force you and trains your reaction.

In the story, a young man paints graffiti on a wall near the railway and is noticed by a policeman who immediately tries to grab him. And the guy begins to run away from him, jumping over ruts and technical structures, dodging various obstacles, climbing onto cars and dodging trains rushing towards him.

Along the way, the guy (and then other heroes will be available) will collect coins and bonuses, which he can later spend on buying hoverboards and other power-ups. If he collects enough coins, he can buy (attract to his side) other heroes, buy new clothes, and much more. But some of these bonuses are only for real money.

Subway Surfers has already been installed by 500 million people - it is one of the most popular games in the world. Join us too, it’s free, funny, cartoonish and great entertainment.

11. Shadow Fight 3

Eleventh place goes to Shadow Fight 3 – the continuation of the hit Shadow Fight 2, with new graphics and gameplay. This is an epic action brawler released at the end of 2017, where you will shred numerous opponents into thousands of small pieces using a variety of weapons and hand-to-hand combat techniques.

The third part of Shadow Fight is like Mortal Kombat. You will meet different NPC heroes, fight in a thousand battles with the enemy from the Dynasty and Legion camps, and go all the way from a simple legionnaire to a powerful lord of shadows.

According to the plot, you will find yourself in the center of a confrontation between three great factions and become the pebble that will break the millstones of history. Events will develop rapidly, but you won’t notice it - the gameplay and graphic design are so captivating. In the third part of Shadow Fight, there was more realism, the movements of the main character became smoother, and abilities and special techniques received more vivid animation.

There is also a network mode - you can take part in rating battles with other players and find out whose kung fu is stronger. The game is free and so cool that you can play it even on the subway or on a long road until the battery is completely drained.

The top ten is ahead. If you notice, we publish the rankings in order from worst to best. But this does not mean that in reality those games that we considered less cool are really bad. There are millions of games on Google Play, from which we tried to choose the best. Therefore, even the 30th place in our rating deserves attention, if only because we recommend it and no one pays us for this recommendation.

10. World of Warships Blitz

We give tenth place in advance to World of Warships Blitz, a free online game about naval combat on ships from the Great Patriotic War. The developer is the same as on the heavier PC version - Wargaming.net. So now fans of large, powerful and clumsy ships can safely download and launch World of Warships Blitz on their gadget.

I must say that we got a little ahead of the locomotive and put a completely new game in tenth place. But we are sure that she will be at the top for a long time.

Powerful battleships, heavy cruisers, light destroyers and clumsy aircraft carriers of the 20th century await you. You will find yourself in a battle where ships of the Russian Empire and the USSR, Japan, USA, Germany and other nations that fought in the First and Second World Wars take part. You will learn to shoot and hit the target, take lead and make adjustments, sink dozens of enemy ships and become a real naval commander. So go ahead - to victories.

9.Grand Theft Auto 3

In ninth place we have Grand Theft Auto 3 from Rockstar Games. In general, the entire Grand Theft Auto series can rightfully be declared the best of all time. All parts are very reminiscent of real life, except that the main characters are not ordinary people, but criminals.

In GTA 3, you will find yourself in the role of Claude, a criminal who finds himself at the center of a criminal showdown taking place in the fictional city of Liberty City (the city of Liberty, translated from English). According to the plot, you will join the Italian mafiosi, complete tasks and move up the career ladder of the mafia clan, destroy competitors, race cars and run away from the police. In general, a classic GTA, neither take nor take away.

In the mobile version, the developers have increased the quality of graphics to the HD level and tried to simplify controls. Compared to the PC version, controlling the character is not very convenient - sometimes it can be difficult without three fingers. On Google Play GTA 3 costs 379 rubles, but there are a lot of apk files of various modifications on the Internet. The main thing is not to stumble upon viruses.

8. World of Tanks Blitz

In eighth place we put World of Tanks Blitz, a free online game about tank battles during the Great Patriotic War. WoT Blitz, like other games, smoothly moved from the segment of powerful and demanding PC games to the segment of mobile applications.

In World of Tanks Blitz you will plunge into the world of large-scale and dynamic tank battles, go from green beginner to tank ace, and discover a whole world of light, medium and heavy combat vehicles.

The game presents real samples of military equipment of the USSR, Germany, USA, Japan, France and other countries that took part in World War II. The battles take place in historical places where large-scale tank battles took place in 1941-1945. Important actions in battle are accompanied by Russian voice acting, which very well dilutes the atmosphere of a global war.

One of the advantages we highlight is that the game is completely free. There is premium content in the form of rare tanks, but they do not upset the balance of the game and do not provide tangible advantages, but they make the gameplay even more interesting. On the downside, the app uses a lot of battery power, so after one or two hours of tank battles, your phone will run out of power. Keep an eye on this. And we move on.

7. Need for Speed: Most Wanted

Seventh place goes to Need for Speed: Most Wanted - a game about racing, street racing, drifting, and, like GTA, also moved from PC to mobile devices. But in the mobile version, the physics and gameplay have changed: now the car can be scratched, glass and headlights broken, and broken to the point where it almost stops moving.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted is about exciting night rides at high speed, competitions with other street racers, and escapes from the police. And first of all, these are cool cars: Dodge Challenger, Porsche 911, Carrera S, Maserati GranTurismo and others are available in the game. Cars can be tuned, installed with all sorts of upgrades such as alloy wheels, spoilers, bumpers and neon lights, installed with reinforced engines, nitrous oxide, and airbrushing.

On Google Play, Need for Speed: Most Wanted costs 379 rubles, and there are many free apk files and mods for it on the Internet. What to choose is up to you; we recommend taking the licensed version.

6.Township

Sixth place goes to Township, a simulator about urban planning and farming, economics and entrepreneurship. Outwardly, it resembles SimCity and other construction simulators, but, unlike PC games, it can easily run on Android and iOS devices. It will also be interesting to children and adults - all because it has light and unobtrusive graphics, interesting and exciting gameplay.

In Township there are no special tasks or missions that need to be completed, but there are many different events that bring various bonuses. All that is required of you is to build and develop your settlement. There are many different buildings and structures in the game; the settlement can be expanded and improved so that after a while it will turn into a large city.

Despite its simplicity, the game is addictive. Look at the comments on Google Play - people admire it, offer the developers their own options for improving the gameplay, discuss something and share life hacks.

Township is a free game, but, like all Android games, it has a special store with the possibility of in-game purchases for rubles and other currencies. This opportunity only affects the speed of development of your settlement and does not affect the game balance in any way, so everyone has a chance to become the best, you just need to try.

5. Clash of Clans

We suddenly decided to give fifth place to Clash of Clans, a multiplayer strategy in a cartoon style about war and building your village. Millions of people from different countries play Clash of Clans: they enthusiastically hack, build villages, upgrade their clan and the builder’s village, collect cups and participate in tournaments. For some reason they all really liked her...

You can play against artificial intelligence in single player mode or against other people in multiplayer mode. Among the innovations - with the advent of the builder's village, a new type of battle has appeared, where a simultaneous attack occurs: you attack your opponent and at the same time he attacks you.

To successfully attack and defend, you will have to strengthen the village - build defensive structures, discover and improve different types of troops, learn how to properly attack and defend the village, and much more. But this is interesting - the same people are against you, and it depends only on you who will be the winner. Here you can speak Russian, communicate in English with representatives of other countries, look at Asian hieroglyphs and “admire” the speech of our neighbors in the CIS.

Clash of Clans is free on Google Play, but it has paid features that have almost no effect on the game balance. The downside is that to become a top player, you will need either 2-3 years of leisurely development, or unrealistic financial investments. For example, our editor-in-chief has an almost top account with a town hall level 11, and he has been pumping it for almost three years - that’s a very long time.

4. Minecraft

In fourth place is Minecraft, a survival simulator about a huge pixel world that is completely at your disposal. Unlike other games where you don't have complete freedom of action, here you can do whatever you want. The world consists of cube blocks that can be taken out, modified, made into tools, built a house, and so on.

Minecraft is real craft in its purest form. The process is very exciting, because you can completely remake an entire location the way you like. Do you want to build a palace? Use your wits and try to implement your idea - everything will work out.

Minecraft has two modes. The first one is for you to learn how to build and create different things from cubes. And the second mode is hardcore or survival, as you like. In the created location, zombies or other monsters suddenly appear, who are really eager to tear the main character into a thousand small cubes. And here you will have to survive using the skills you learned in the first mode.

Minecraft can be played online with friends. If you have Wi-Fi or unlimited internet on your smartphone, start an online match and play for fun. The price on Google Play is 529 rubles, the game has been downloaded by more than 10 million people.

3. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

GTA Vice City is very popular - more than a million downloads, HD graphics on par with other popular applications, and the coolest gameplay make it a leader in the mobile segment.

An open world, an exciting plot, convenient controls with support for wireless joysticks and USB gamepads - what more do you need? On Google Play GTA Vice City costs 379 rubles, which is not so much for the licensed version. And pirated versions do not have an online mode and Rockstar support, so we are in favor of purchasing a license.

2. Terraria

Silver goes to Terraria, an adventure RPG with 2D pixel graphics that has proven very popular among smartphone and tablet owners. All the interest in the game arose because of the great variability: after starting, a huge world is generated for you, which you can explore, where you can create objects, build houses and other buildings, and fight monsters.

Terraria is somewhat similar to Minecraft - here you will do a lot of crafting. But at the same time, it has more different monsters that are not so easy to defeat. They drop various things: skins, ingots, rare ingredients, which are also needed for crafting. The game has very dangerous monsters, bosses and more than 2,000 different types of weapons. Therefore, there is no time to be bored - forward to adventure.

There are two versions on Google Play - paid and free. Only the first five levels are available in the free version, while the paid version costs 319 rubles. So you can try it first, and if you like it, buy the full version.

1. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Gold deservedly goes to Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The epic action game about the adventures of the black CJ and the gang war in the big city smoothly moved from PC to Android, which made millions of fans happy. The mobile version has better graphics, more cool cars and several more storylines.

The Android version of GTA San Andreas is pleasant to play: convenient controls, several modes of walking, running, aiming and driving a car, the graphics do not slow down and are automatically adjusted for each device. As a bonus, you won't lose your saved game because the app syncs with the Rockstar Games cloud service.

And the price of all this beauty on Google Play is 529 rubles. And we can say for sure that Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is worth the money.

Let's sum it up

We tried to include the maximum number of games and made the rating interesting for children and teenagers, and indeed for everyone who has smartphones on Anrdoid. Many games were not included in the rating - it is not rubber after all.

The main trend that can already be seen now is that you have to pay for all decent games. This is the position of developers who have spent a lot of time and resources porting or developing the Android version of the game. Therefore, we are for purchasing licensed games, and do not support hackers who make free versions of the most popular applications.

That's all for today, stay in touch, bye-bye everyone.

Game process

Few people are unfamiliar with the GTA series games, which include this one. The main character, Jason, is a boxer who is threatened by the leader of the local gangsters, demanding a loss in the 4th round. But the opponent falls even earlier and Jason begins to have serious problems. He manages to escape by turning to his friend's relative for help.

From this moment the story of saving one’s own life begins. The player will have to drive cars, motorcycles and even become a pilot. The hero also needs to be protected by visiting a store with weapons and body armor. As the game progresses, the gamer will have to complete story missions and additional tasks to receive money and bonuses. These include the destruction of necessary targets, delivery of cargo around the city and much more.

When breaking the rules, you must remember that this attracts the attention of the police. The level of interest in cops is indicated by the number of icons in the upper right corner. To hide from them, you need to change your vehicle, repaint it, or simply “go to the bottom.”
