    Default Android/iOS Games

    I know it may be blasphemous to mention this on a hardcore gaming forum but I actually really enjoy playing games on my cell phone these days. I much more often have 10-15 minute bursts of game time rather than the usual 30 min to a couple of hours needed to really get into a console or even handheld game.

    The games I play the most are:

    Cut the Rope. The objective is simple and innovative and makes for some really challenging puzzles. I also like how the mix it up with a new feature in each box.

    Plants vs. Zombies. This is fun take on the tower defense genre with several different power ups to make each level a unique experience. This game can get pretty challenging too.

    The Room & The Room 2 - This reminds me of those old school adventure titles where you must use the objects around you to solve puzzles. Both games are excellent.

    What are your favorite games for the cell phone platforms? Anything you can recommend me based on my tastes?

    Lazer Puzzle was a nice distraction for a few weeks and I recomend it if you like puzzles

    Flow was good but after a while the solutions become very predictable
    Their only down side is that theyre not very graphically polished

    I currently have a 131072 tile on 2048 (in practice mode)
    There was once I time where I three stared every level on four different versions of Angry Birds

    and upon reading this thread I went to check if Hoggy was available for the Android and huzzah it finally is!
    Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
    Have a nice day!!

    I played Flow and like you I enjoyed it until it got predictable and repetitive.

    I have this cute little word game called Wordly that my friends are absolutely in love with. Whenever I'm around (and my iPad Mini is always with me) they ask to play it. It is pretty fun, but I would hardly say that it was addictive. They can't get enough of it!

    Here's a picture of it.

    Ingress: An augmented reality MMO GPS game. You walk around IRL, capturing pieces of public art or local landmarks (portals) and link them together with keys to create triangular fields, claiming territory for the faction you're a part of. It's good exercise, and a fun way to meet other people and explore your city.

    It's consumes a massive amount of data and battery though. That, and some stalking/camping tactics from some opposing locals in my area have blunted my interest somewhat, so I'm not terribly active anymore. I still participate in the big organised events and farm items for the newer players.

    QuizUp: Trivia game where you're paired up against a random player and take them on in a topic of your choosing. You earn experience by answering correctly and quickly and beating your opponents, and if you're really into a topic, you can check yourself out on the global and national leaderboards.

    I was ranked first in the world in Final Fantasy for about a month before I was overtaken by some people who I suspect paid for XP boosters.

    Jetpack Joyride - I think I have spent more time on this than any other game in the last three years. Any time I get a spare moment I give it another couple of plays. I'm only a couple of hundred feet short of getting to 10'000 feet so I have to keep playing until this happens.

    Everybody install this and then connect to Facebook and then add me on Facebook. Don't be scared by the "Angry Birds" in the title, this is a genuine RPG.
