From escaping ghoulish beasts to doing a mid-air 360 degree roll with your Lamborghini – these games turn your smartphone into a fun-phone. We select five top mobile games of all times. In case you haven’t played them, its high time you try them out. They are free of cost, after all.
Candy Crush Saga
Addictive is what describes Candy Crush Sage. It hooks you with the dreamy music and a bright screen and a gameplay so simple that even Homer Simpson can play it with ease. But, once you clear the initial levels, the difficulty gets tighter, the challenges seem impossible and the available lives seem too short.
New puzzles are added every now and then, so much so that the map seems endless at times. I don’t know anyone who has actually completed all levels. There are people who have been playing Candy Crush for over a year now and still haven’t completed all levels. Needless to say, this game is our number-one. Why? Because it’s DIVINE!
Flappy Bird is another mobile game that went viral.
Flappy Bird
Another game that will keep a user hooked, in fact so much so, that the creator decided to pull the game. The objective is simple. You tap the screen to keep the bird flapping past obstacles. Of course it’s not really that simple when you get down to playing the game.
Flappy Bird is so hard, that even veteran players have never been able to go past a score of 10. It is the almost unbeatable difficulty that makes Flappy Bird wildly popular. The game is incredibly light in size and is perfect for short rounds of finger-tapping fun. So, go ahead, score past 10 and earn your bragging rights.
Clash of Clans will remind you of Age of Empires. (Source: Screenshot)
Clash of Clans
You don’t need to vouch for Clash of Clans’ popularity given that even ‘Taken’ star Liam Neeson plays the game. Clash of Clans brings back the wholesome fun of once-popular Age of Empires on your mobile screen.
You build your clan; join hands with legendary clan heads from all over the world and take on the others. The goal is simple, world domination! You can spot a Clash of Clan player in crowded buses, public restos and even business meetings This is a great game for all the fans of strategy genre out there.
Temple Run is a favourite with all smartphone users. (Source: Screenshot)
Temple Run
It will be hard to find someone who has not played Temple Run at least once. Temple Run is fun and has a great replay value. You have to help your adventurer escape the clutches of a monster by running through ruins, jumping across ditches and sliding under fire. The controls are great and smooth. Temple Run was one of the first games that fully used the phone G-sensor to control the character’s movement. If you’ve never play this game, take our advice and download it right now.
Asphalt 8 is one for all hard-core gaming fans. (Source: Screenshot)
Asphalt 8: Airborne
There are a lot of contenders for the best gaming title for mobile and honestly, it’s hard to choose. However, if I have to select the best racer game of all time, Asphalt 8: Airborne it is. Awesome graphics push the boundary of AAA gaming; incredibly fun gameplay and a plethora of vehicles and maps makes Airborne the greatest racing game of all times.
The best part of Airborne is that it not only uses the land’s set pieces, but also, uses the aerial dimension to provide memorable gaming moments. Which other game would really launch your precious Merc off ramp, go into an airspin and pass through a pipe midair, and land on top of an opponent vehicle, smashing it to pieces? Asphalt 8 gives you an adrenaline rush like no other, and therefore is number five on our list.
