this list we’re taking a look back at
mobile games that have transcended the
android marketplace to become more than
just shovelware or subpar freemium games
some titles aren’t available on multiple
platforms but that does not take away
from the great gameplay value they add
to your mobile library number 10 the
room series sorry but you won’t find any
Tommy Wiseau in this game series not to
be confused with the infamous film of
the same name the room is a series of
puzzle games mostly revolving around a
set of complex contraptions in you
guessed it a room what sets the room
apart however isn’t just how well
thought out its puzzles are but the
extreme level of detail in the
contraptions
for a mobile title both the environment
and objects in it are stunning enough to
rival even the best-looking console
stuff mostly
number nine fruit ninja an all-time
classic for mobile gaming fruit ninja
takes advantage of simplistic touch
controls by incorporating repetitive yet
quite addictive gameplay simply swiping
your finger across the screen will come
through the fruits as they’re tossed up
in the air
the end goal depending on the mode
you’re playing is usually to cut through
as many fruits as possible while
completing combos and avoiding bombs all
in an effort to top the leaderboards and
brag to your friends because you all
know that fruit ninja will get you
places in life number eight battle heart
not every great RPG needs a complex
battle system with thought-provoking
narratives taking a more simplistic
approach battle heart manages to provide
a satisfying RPG experience usually
reserved for consoles and computers
controlling a party of four stop me if
you’ve heard this one you will embark on
a epic adventure featuring a variety of
classes a handful of abilities to master
and vibrant characters and environments
battle heart makes for a compact yet
quite complete experience
while its sequels have certainly
improved on the original the first in
the series offers a rewarding
playthrough for casual and hardcore
gamers alike numbers haven’t Kingdom
rush series you can’t have an Android
game without one of the most basic of
mobile genres tower defense while most
gamers can’t agree that the amp market
has become completely oversaturated with
these the Kingdom rush series is
exceptionally well made and great for
passing time like any basic tower
defense game you must build towers to
defend yourself I guess is pretty
self-explanatory with Kingdom rush
however you’re also gonna be treated to
a little bit of backstory and the
ability to play through more difficult
modes for gamers who want a challenge
you think you’re a master of a certain
level well try beating it with only one
life hotshot
number six nights of pen and paper
series if simplistic RPGs aren’t enough
you can always go back to the tabletop
classics channeling the feel of tabletop
RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons the Knights
of pen and paper series offers a genuine
tabletop RPG experience in an intuitive
and animated format the twist however is
that you aren’t just playing a fantasy
character but also controlling the
Dungeon Master and gamers the meta kind
of feeling of a game within a game helps
to give the series originality and
controlling both the party and the
Dungeon Master is definitely an
interesting take number five Super Mario
run it was only a matter of time before
Nintendo’s mascot jumped on to our
mobile devices or in this case ran well
known for its easy controls comprised of
running and jumping
Super Mario run goes on an even more
simplistic route by setting Mario to
automatically run while leaving the
player to utilize his jump
the timing and holding of said jump will
help Mario avoid obstacles and collect
coins aside from the basic time
challenges coins and other collectibles
help to add replayability while this
mobile title really doesn’t take Mario
to new heights it’s still fun enough to
warrant another run through the Mushroom
Kingdom
[Music]
number four Cut the Rope despite the
title there’s a lot more to this game
than just cutting a rope little om nom
can’t get enough candy and it’s up to
you to deliver it to it making use of

gravity shifts portals and force ropes

each space you’ll need to take down
every enemy or complete objectives

killed while it definitely doesn’t have
the same level of detail its console
counterparts do it mango provides a
devilishly puzzling experience for those
that want a little more strategy in
their mobile titles number 2 Altos
adventure
endless-runners have become real popular
in the mobile gaming scene thanks to
