The Best Video Games on Mobile Phones


1. The Room: Old Sins

It is the latest epic puzzle game from the Fireproof Games and the 4th in the award-winning ‘The Room’ puzzle game series. You are exploring the home of an ambitious engineer who is missing then you find a rather beautiful dollhouse in the attic.

Through the sophisticated eyepiece, you are able to explore different rooms in the dollhouse that are filled with incredibly sophisticated puzzle boxes and contraptions. Something is going on here, so maybe if you can solve the puzzles, you’ll figure out what happened to the missing engineer.

2. Dissembler

It is a colorful and abstract game that, from the outset, might seem like another standard tile-swapping match three game. Dissembler unravels itself to be among those puzzle games that almost transcends the genre, by offering a relaxing exploration of patterns in abstract designs. It starts out nice and easy but as it lays out the basic principles before gradually representing you with more complex puzzles.

3. Reigns: Her Majesty

Reigns was one of the best games of 2016 and it won the first-ever Google Play Indie Games Contest. In Reigns, you play as the monarch of the land, and makes the decision that affects the four aspects of the kingdom: the church, the people, the army, and the royal wealth. Your goal is to keep all them our balanced- if any meter fills to the max or is entirely depleted your reign is over, and a new reign begins.

4. Causality

This is a very mind-blowing puzzle game that’s all about manipulating time. It is a brilliant game where you control time and make adjustments to the level, and alter the sequence in such a way that you help your stranded astronauts reach their goals. This game will have you wracking your head as you figure out how to help each astronaut to their exit within the allocated time.
