2012-08-30T18:43:00.000-07:00

Beats, Advanced Rhythm Game is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. A standard rhythm action, button pressing music game for Android. Beats manages to outdo the official music games by including a Download Song tab, where it's possible to install new song files created by users. It's very hard and very fast. Just like they should be. Runs perfectly on an HTC Desire, too, so there's no blaming glitches for not doing very well.

Tap Fish for Android Games

2012-08-29T20:18:00.000-07:00

Tap Fish is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. A nice looking little aquarium, that combines the timeless hobby of staring at goldfish with game elements based around breeding new varieties. There's a slight sting in the tail here in that Tap Fish is one of the initial wave of "freemium" Android games brought into life thanks to Google's launch of in-app billing. The really cool new stuff costs little bits of money.

PewPew for Android Games

2012-08-28T20:10:00.000-07:00

PewPew is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Very similar in style and concept to Xbox and Xbox 360 retro classic Geometry Wars. In fact, one might legally be able to get away with calling it a right old rip-off. Android PewPew is a rock-hard 2D shooting game packed with alternate game modes. It's a bit rough around the edges and requires a powerful phone to run smoothly, but when it does it's a fantastic thing.

Words with Friends Free is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. The popular iPhone Scrabble-alike is now on Android, with an ad-supported version up on Google Play for free. Words with Friends Free should actually be called Words for People Without Any Friends, as once installed it lets users play with complete strangers online - or pick specific people from your contacts list. It's turn-based, so several ongoing games can be strung out for days.

Angry Birds Rio for Android Games

2012-08-26T10:04:00.000-07:00

Angry Birds Rio is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Yet more Angry Birds for fans of the simplistic trial and error physics game. Angry Birds Rio is another chapter-based effort as well, with developer Rovio leaving tempting empty slots on the menu screen for periodic updates of new levels. More of the same, but with a prettier, 3D look to it this time thanks to a vague association with animated movie Rio.

2012-08-19T15:20:00.000-07:00

Meganoid is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. A stunning little retro game, Meganoid plays and looks like something that ought to be running on a Nintendo emulator. But it isn't. It's new and on Android. It's a speed-based challenge, using on-screen or accelerometer controls to jump and bounce through ever-hardening levels. Developer Orange Pixel is aggressively supporting it, too, with constant map packs, characters and more regularly appearing for download.

Geared for Android Games

2012-08-18T11:51:00.000-07:00

Geared is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Geared is a weird little thing finally converted over to Android from iPhone. It's an embarrassingly simple concept - players slot different sized cogs into place on the screen, with the aim being to power one gear from another. Then, as is video game tradition, it gets harder and harder. Plus there are 150 levels of it all.

Wordfeud is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Wordfeud is a superb little clone of Scrabble, with a big, clear screen and online play options that actually work.

A paid version may arrive soon, but Wordfeud remains free right now.

Tetronimo for Android Games

2012-08-15T14:14:00.000-07:00

Tetronimo is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. The name gives it away - this is a Tetris clone. Or rather it's a game that uses the same sort of block-shifting rules as Tetris, only with a very nice and user friendly touchscreen area beneath the block pit to make it easy to play. We're having trouble locating this on Google Play at time of writing - either a glitch or the inevitable legal troubles.

UPDATE: Tetronimo seems to have been removed from Google Play, but there's now an official Tetris app available to download.

Friction Mobile for Android Games

2012-08-14T15:16:00.000-07:00

Friction Mobile is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Friction Mobile is a very odd concept that makes no sense in still images. You fire a ball into the screen, then try to hit that ball with other balls until it explodes. The catch is you're not allowed to bounce balls backwards into your own face. Because then you die. Sounds rubbish, but works well. It's free, so give it a no-obligation, no-commitment whirl.

Barrr for Android Games

2012-08-14T00:24:00.000-07:00

Barrr is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. What you do in Barrr is man-manage a bar world, pointing men at the beers, games or tattoo parlour, then taking their money off them once they're drunk and happy like a good capitalist. And make sure they go to the toilet. Things, as things do in games, soon start speeding up and it gets rather insane and difficult.

Dropwords for Android Games

2012-08-13T20:50:00.000-07:00

Dropwords is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Dropwords is laid out like your standard Android block-based puzzle game, the difference here is we're not dealing with gems - you make blocks disappear by spelling out words from the jumbled heap of letters. There's not an enormous amount of point to it, but you can at least submit your scores and best words to the server, where an AI version of Susie Dent will pass her approval.

Scrambled Net for Android Games

2012-08-12T22:32:00.000-07:00

Scrambled Net is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Scrambled Net is based around the age-old concept of lining up pipes and tubes, but has been jazzed up with images of computer terminals, high score tracking and animations. Still looks like something you'd have played on a Nokia during the last decade, but it's free - and looking rubbish hardly stopped Snake from taking off, did it?

ActionPotato for Android Games

2012-08-12T13:49:00.000-07:00

ActionPotato is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. In ActionPotato you control three pots. Pressing on the pots makes them jump up into the air, where they harvest potatoes. See how many you can get in a row. That's the gist of it. And don't collect the rotten potatoes, else you die. That really is it. The Google Play stats say this is on well over 1,000,000 downloads, so it's doing something right.

Alchemy Classic is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. There are a few variants on Alchemy out there, each offering a similarly weird experience. In Alchemy Classic you match up elements to create their (vaguely) scientific offspring, so dumping water onto earth makes a swamp, and so on. It's a brain teaser thing and best played by those who enjoy spending many hours in the company of the process of elimination.

Graviturn is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Graviturn is an accelerometer based maze game, where the aim is to roll a red ball out of a maze by tilting your phone around. Seems embarrassingly easy at first, until increasing numbers of green balls appear on screen. If any green balls roll off the screen you die and have to try again. It's abstract. It's good.

GalaxIR is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. GalaxIR is a futuristic strategy game with an abstract look, where players micro-manage an attacking alien fleet. Pick a planet, pick an attack point, then hope your troops have the balls to carry it off.

2012-08-08T19:34:00.000-07:00

Air Control is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. One of the other common themes on the Android gaming scene is clones of games based around pretending to be an air traffic controller, where you guide planes to landing strips with a swish of your finger. There are loads of them, all pretty much the same thing - we've chosen Air Control as it's an ad-supported release, so is technically free.

Cestos for Android Games

2012-08-06T05:29:00.000-07:00

Cestos is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Cestos is sort of a futuristic recreation of curling, where players chuck marbles at each other to try and smash everyone else's balls/gems down the drain and out of the zone. The best part is this all happens online against real humans, so as long as there's a few other bored people out there at the same time you'll have a real, devious, cheating, quitting person to play against. Great.

Coloroid is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Coloroid is aery, very simple and has the look of the aftermath of an explosion in a Tetris factory, but it works. All you do is expand coloured areas, trying to fill them in with colours in as few moves as possible - like using Photoshop's fill tool at a competitive level.

Brain Genius Deluxe for Android Games

2012-08-02T20:20:00.000-07:00

Trap! is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Our basic legal training tells us it's better to use the word "homage" than to label something a "rip-off", so we'll recommend this as a simple "homage" to the famed Nintendo Brain Training franchise.

Clearly Brain Genius Deluxe is not going to be as slick, but there's enough content in here to keep you "brain training" (yes, it even uses that phrase) until your battery dies. The presentation's painfully slow, but then again that might be the game teaching you patience.

The Great Land Grab for Android Games

2012-08-01T21:30:00.000-07:00

The Great Land Grab is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. A cross between a map tool and Foursquare, The Great Land Grab sorts your local area into small rectangular packets of land - which you take ownership of by travelling through them in real-time and buying them up.

Then someone else nicks them off you the next day, a bit like real-world Risk. A great idea, as long as you don't mind nuking your battery by leaving your phone sitting there on the train with its GPS radio on.

Abduction! is a one of BEST FREE GAMES for android. Abduction! is a sweet little platform jumping game, presented in a similarly quirky and hand-drawn style as the super-fashionable Doodle Jump. You can't argue with cute cows and penguins with parachutes, or a game that's easy to play with one hand thanks to its super accessible accelerometer controls.
