Android Authority and Make Use Of featured a list of offline mobile games, but here are our top picks for the best games for Android that don't require WiFi!
Arcade: Jungle Marble Blast (Free)
Jungle Marble Blast is an offline knock-off of Zuma, which doesn't work without an internet connection. The gameplay is as enjoyable as it has always been. The graphics aren't as smooth as they could be, but this isn't a massive issue. To shoot, tap anywhere on the screen; tap the bug to switch between the two color spheres. Shoot the spheres at the chain that circles the map to make three or more sequences.
Shooter: Smash Hit (Free)
Back in 2014, Smash Hit was one of the most addictive games, and it's still a guaranteed good time. It is a first-person shooter in which you must toss steel balls at glass objects in order to shatter them. Building a string of successful hits and removing all glasses unlocks perks, such as increasing the number of steel balls you can launch at once. You're steadily progressing through the levels the entire time, and the pace builds up as you continue. You'll beat the game in no time if you don't get hit by any glass objects.
Racing: Traffic Rider (Free)
Traffic Rider is a game akin to an endless racer in which you must race to the finish line without crashing. The mission mode, on the other hand, makes it a little more enjoyable than other endless races because you may race for specific objectives rather than zooming around mindlessly. Other modes, such as time trials or a plain endless runner, are also available. Simply complete the mission mode first, as it unlocks some awesome superbikes to satisfy your thirst for speed.
Bloons TD 6 ($4.99)
Bloons TD 6 is the latest installment in the tower defense franchise. As bad men approach, you set up towers along the route and defeat them. You also get a diverse meta with a variety of distinct tower upgrades for different scenarios. Finally, players can choose from a variety of challenges and game modes.
Dead Cells ($8.99)
Dead Cells has an interconnected world and non-linear gameplay, allowing you to go wherever you want.
