Subway surfers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Developer: SYBO Games<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publisher: Kiloo<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available on: iOS + Android<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genre: Action<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

People play endless runners on their phones all the time because they’re so good at what they do! When you play endless runner-style games<\/a>, you can swipe to move between lanes and tap to jump. You can avoid things, get coins, and keep going until, uh, you don’t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A security guard is after you in Subway Surfers, and you play as one of a number of different characters who are being chased by him. He just caught you tagging a wall. In the beginning, you are running through a subway with your hoverboard and grabbing letters. You also run on moving trains! Codes for Subway Surfers are released from time to time, and we have a page where we keep track of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Real Cricket 20<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Developer: Nautilus Mobile<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publisher: Nautilus Mobile<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available on: iOS + Android + Blackberry + PS Vita<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genre: Sports<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was recommended by people of all ages on the Cricket blog<\/a> that “Real Cricket 20” has been rated as one of the best cricket games on the app store. One of the best parts of this fun cricket game for iOS is the real-time multiplayer mode, which lets you play with other people. So, you can play a thrilling cricket match with your friends and show off your batting skills to win convincingly. You can also team up with your friends to make a strong team and fight against your rivals. It also lets you save and share the best parts of the game so you can show off how well you beat your opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Badland<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Developer: Frogmind Games<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publisher: Frogmind Games<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available on: iOS + Android + Blackberry + PS Vita<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genre: Adventure<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One tap elements can be found in a lot of different genres on mobile, so it can be hard to figure out what kind of game it is at first. You can tap to interact with or do something in many games, but we’re only looking at games where tapping is the main mechanic, so you can play the game by tapping only. Think of Tiny Wings or Flappy Bird as other examples in the same kind of game genre, like this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Badland\"
Badland<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Badland, on the other hand, is my favourite because it has an Oddworld-like atmosphere and changes the genre by putting you in charge of multiple creatures instead of just one. You control them all with a single tap. Badland is an action platform game in which you play as a group of black, flying blobs. You have to get them through dangerous levels. A fun and easy game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Puzzle & Dragons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Publisher: GungHo Online Entertainment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available on: iOS + Android<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genre: Puzzle, RPG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puzzle & Dragons was a big hit in Japan.<\/a> It was the top-selling game in the country for two years. There are still people who love Puzzle & Dragons, even though it was a few years ago. It is still one of the best Match 3 RPGs ever made for mobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They look like a battle in one of the game’s many dark dungeons. The match-three puzzle games here are turn-based. You can combine more than three orbs to make even more powerful attacks. In this game, there is a lot of strategy involved. This gives the game a lot of depth and makes it very popular with people who like both the game and the genres together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>80 Days<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Publisher: Inkle Studios<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available on: iOS + Android<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genre: Adventure, Card\/board game<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Narrative games, also known as gamebooks, seem to work well on phones and other tablets. When you make a decision, you don’t need to carry around a pencil or dice, print out rules sheets, or flip through pages. Among the best examples of this type of book is 80 Days. One thing about 80 Days is that it looks very nice. It tells a very interesting story based on the Jules Verne book, Around the World in Eighty Days. It’s also nice not to have to rely on your imagination and just see what’s in front of you. As long as this game has been around, it’s still very good and fun to play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
