Today smartphone has become affordable and it has almost replaced the feature phones of the yore. Gaming is one of the primary area of usage when buying a new phone. While these low-price smartphones cannot run(smoothly) Asphalt 8 or Real Racing 3 in its full glory, they can surely handle plenty other games. I myself don’t like all these racing and shooter games on mobile devices but I do love all those simple puzzle games which can give you hours of fun. When the smartphone revolution started games like Angry Birds, Temple Run and Fruit Ninja were at the top. While these are still popular today, there many new games on the block.

1. Can You Escape – Tower

2. Candy Crush Saga

Flow free is another popular heavy-weight in the puzzles category. In this addictive game you have to connect two dots of same color using pipes. Also you have to cover the entire board with pipes, with no area left uncovered. This is where it gets tricky. There are only so many ways in which you can do that. And of course the difficulty increases as levels progress. There’s also time trial where you connect as many dots as possible in the same way as above, in the given time. If you are up for a challenge please check out this colorful app.

7. Shoot Bubble Deluxe

Two dots is the sequel to the much popular Dots game. In Dots, you connect vertically & horizontally, same colored dots, to remove them. Forming a complete square eliminates all the same colored dots from the board. The challenge here is to clear a set number of dots of each color in given moves. Dots game proved that a simple, well thought out and colorful UI design and simple gameplay are enough to make a chart topping game. Two Dots rightly improves in that direction. They have kept the basic game as per, added new power-ups and new ranking systems. Also the levels have increased to 285.
