Three Top Mobile Gaming Apps for Android or iOS

According to most mobile gamers, their mobile indulgence in gaming in stemmed only because of streaming limitations: Either mobile service providers throttle their speeds, or the data plans are increasingly restrictive. While movies and videos can be scheduled or viewed during non-peak times, gamers often gather online via MMOP sites.

More gamers are opting to circumvent the traditional – and expensive – game site enrollment and heading toward mobile gaming apps. Here are some terrific mobile gaming apps for the fun-seeker on the go and extend beyond popular social network gaming apps.

Minecraft Series

The entire Minecraft series of games is one of the most popular available. The Minecraft: Survival Mode, classic edition, brings zombies – one of the biggest gaming bad guy genre – with food sources, environmental changes, such as day-to-night-to-day game play and a wider choice of tools and props. Use available shelter or build your own with scrounged materials.

Start at the Easy game level, then progress to the harder tiers of game play as your skills improve. Sample the newest version of the game in a free, demo version before you purchase the full mobile gaming app subscription of about $7.00 per month, far less than the monthly fee at many gaming sites.

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective

Instead of the standard PI – Private Investigator – approach to this clue-bound mystery game derived for iOS users from the Nintendo DS platform, Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective presents a mobile game in which you don't hunt ghosts: You ARE the ghost.Fortunately, you don't play an evil spirit. Instead, you save the damsel in distress from the “flesh and blood” bad guy.

However, you can't exactly knock the bad guy unconscious with a round-house punch after sneaking up behind him and tapping him on the shoulder. Adapt and respond as ectoplasm instead of a live person with bulk.

How will you fool or beat the bad guy now? Now, add that “how you gonna” aspect from the fact that you start the game as the spirit of a murdered victim with amnesia: You can't remember a thing about who you were or what you did before your untimely death. You earn “clues” along the way to accumulate skills and memory needed to win the game.

ZENONIA 4: Return of the Legend

Mobile gamers will certainly recognize one of the most popular RPG – that's Role Play Game for the non-initiated – series of all time. The fourth in the series, Return of the Legend, brings tiered difficulty levels and a single- or multi-player team mode. This Android app is FREE for all players, and it presents in-game surprises and plot twists that will thrill the mobile phone user-player.

Wander, follow, co-ordinate and navigate your way through this Android mobile game. Pit yourself against all comers or combine talents with friends or compete against them to determine who wins bragging rights this time around?
