Mobile Games Have High Entertainment Value

By Jason Phillips


The mobile phone games available now are substantially more sophisticated than those from just a few years ago thanks to advancements in technology. A large number of popular video games have undergone conversion for play on mobile electronic devices. The introduction of the Apple iPhone is largely responsible for this shift and some of the best console games including Fifa, Call of Duty and Need for Speed are available for play on mobile devices.

When it comes to mobile games however, the games with versatile play options and impressive visuals, do not have to be the most popular ones. In fact, the mobile games that are very popular, cannot boast of having these attributes. With mobile phone gaming, the games that can be played very quickly as well as frequently enough to allow the user to form an addictive experience, become the most popular. Here are three of the more hugely popular mobile games.

Bejeweled: An old favourite and very simple in itself, the player is required to match gems across horizontal and vertical lines, while the pressure element is added according to the timed play. The game is not complex and doesn't contain stunning visuals, but according to reports, the game has been downloaded more than 150 million times across platforms, since the browser version was launched in 2001.

Angry Birds from Rovio has been almost as successful as Bejeweled in the mobile gaming market. The game is available for play on Android and iPhone. Game play is simple. The goal is to destroy the pigs by using a sling shot and angry birds. Gamers are so addicted to this title they have downloaded it over a 100 million times across the various platforms available.

Tetris: This game has been around longer than its other two competitors described above. Its initial debut occurred in 1984. As with Angry Birds, Tetris is a puzzle-style game and enjoyed an enormous following on Nintendo playing devices and has since become a rampant favourite among mobile game enthusiasts. It, too, boasts in excess of 100,000,000 downloads.
