There are a lot of hype surrounding Super Mario Run, but if you are looking for more engaging games which are free, here are five of them. These games are playable on both Android and iOS platforms, except one.
Orbit: Playing With Gravity
Developed by HIGHKEY Games, the game is a simple puzzler which allows you to launch planets and get them to orbit black holes with just a flick of your finger similar to the Angry Birds gameplay. With more than 1 million downloads, Orbit has now a new feature which allows players to build their own levels, publish them, and allow other players to conquer them.
Hearthsone: Heroes of Warcraft
The initial download of the game is free from the Apple Store, Google Play, and Amazon. However, the expansion packs, Arena Mode, and some card packs can have in-app purchases. This game from Blizzard Entertainment is simple but you need to have very good strategy skills in order to win the game. It is an ideal time killer whether you are waiting on the subway or in a very long ride going somewhere.
Theatrhythm Final Fantasy
Theatrhythm is only available on the iOS platform; thus, for those who have iOS devices and love rhythm games, this one is for you. This rhythm and music games feature some of the most well-beloved songs in the Final Fantasy series. However, a lot of songs need to be bought if you want to unlock them. For some people, this is okay since you only get to choose the music you want.
Clash Royale
Known as the game which toppled Pokemon GO out of number one, Clash Royale is a must-have for any mobile game enthusiast. What makes Clash Royale a hit is because of its similarity to the League of Legends gameplay except that you don't have to make superfast decisions. The objective of the game is also pretty simple - destroy the enemy's fortress and protect your own.
Color Switch
Color Switch is both an iOS and Android mobile game which has amassed more than 125,000,000 million downloads all over the world. The gameplay is quite simple - just follow the color pattern on each obstacle in order to finish it successfully. However, if your ball touches a different color, then you're game over.
