10 Best Android Games #2

1. The Banner Saga. Stoic Studio's Viking-inspired epic The Banner Saga has made its way to mobile devices, delivering gorgeous art, fierce tactical battles and an intense RPG story. Lead a rag-tag band of farmers, townsfolk, warriors and mighty Varls as you flee against a marauding army of the monstrous Dredge. Along the way, explore a beautifully illustrated world of rolling hills, ancient monuments and ruined battlefields, all while managing your caravan's supplies and making choices that can change the fate of your journey, and perhaps even the world.
2. The World Ends With You: Solo Remix is a stylish and surprisingly dark Japanese RPG. It puts you in control of Neku, a boy trapped in the Shinjuku district of Tokyo and compelled to fight for his life in the Reaper's Game. Featuring frenetic touchscreen combat, an awesome soundtrack and a unique visual style, The World Ends With You Solo Remix is a first-rate gaming experience, with a correspondingly hefty price. 
3. 80 Days. Inkle Studios's latest piece of interactive fiction is the remarkable 80 Days, a steampunk adventure based on Jules Verne's classic "Around The World in 80 Days." As the loyal valet Passepartout, you accompany your master Phileas Fogg in his globe-trotting journey through an alternate Earth filled with automata, Artificers and airships. Players must race through the world's great cities, discovering new routes and stumbling across mysteries while exploring each city through a "choose your path" interface. Discover the fastest.
4. Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft. Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft is that rarest of species: a fun, free and fair digital collectible card game. Players take on the role of the great heroes (and villains) of the Warcraft universe such as Thrall, Jaina Proudmoor or Gul'dan, engaging in epic duels and summoning allies and minions into the fray. Hearthstone features simple, easy-to-learn rules and cross-platform play between PC and mobile. The latest update adds support for playing on Android phones, which means you can say goodbye to even more productivity on the go.
5. Modern Combat 5: Blackout. Modern Combat 5: Blackout provides mobile gamers with firefights straight out of an action movie, with console-quality graphics to match. Players can engage in a single-player campaign as well as multiplayer shootouts, with experience and rewards from either mode carrying over to the other. A class progression system also allows players to choose how they want to play the game, with specialized roles as Assault, Heavy, Recon, Sniper, and the new Support troopers.
6. Game of Thrones. Enter the world of Westeros in Game of Thrones, the game. Players take control of the scions of House Forrester, minor bannermen of House Stark, as they get caught up in the great struggle for the throne of the Seven Kingdoms. Telltale Games' signature high-stakes, timed decision-making is particularly apt for the Game of Thrones episodic game. Players have to think on their feet as they make tough choices in the battlefield and within the murky politics of the court. 
7. Firaxis' XCOM: Enemy. The mobile port of Firaxis' XCOM: Enemy Unknown was already excellent, and it gets better with standalone expansion Enemy Within. This new installment adds new wrinkles to XCOM's blend of tactical firefights, R&D and crisis management in the form of new training options for your troops, such as the cybernetic MEC Troopers and genetically manipulated fighters. The game also offers up a new enemy to fight in the form of the traitorous EXALT, a human faction attempting to exploit alien technology for its own.
8. Monument Valley. A game that draws inspiration from optical illusions and M.C. Escher prints, Monument Valley is a stylish puzzle game where players must guide the princess Ida through a series of surreal monuments and structures, all while trying to evade the strange crow people. Gameplay consists of players using touch controls to rotate the screen or manipulate the environment in order to guide Ida through a safe path, with players frequently having to navigate seemingly impossible optical illusions. 
9. Trivia Crack. If you think you know it all, give Trivia Crack a spin. The hit mobile quiz game combines cute cartoon designs with a wide variety of trivia questions and a turn-based, head-to-head-system. Players may play against Facebook friends or random opponents, spinning the wheel to answer questions based on Sports, Science, History, Geography, Art or Entertainment in order to become the first to acquire six different characters and win the game. Trivia Crack gets tactical with power-ups that players can use to affect the game, as well as the ability to steal enemy characters by wagering your own.
10. Shadowrun: Dragonfall. High tech meets high fantasy in Shadowrun: Dragonfall, a cyberpunk RPG filled with cyborg elves and magic-wielding mega corporations. Players take on the role of Shadowrunners: highly skilled freelance operatives who specialize in black ops for the world's many mega-corps, governments and other shady conspiracies. Dragonfall improves on the original game's turn-based combat and fixes the save-game system, while preserving the series' wonderful fantasy cyberpunk ambiance.
