There are many mobile games. Some are paid, others are free. But among the latter, advertising is often the law. Here are 15 free games, no ads and very good ones.
It’s hard to justify buying a mobile game when there are so many free options available. Not all free games are the same, especially those full of ads. And there are many. Some are even unplayable because of it. On the other hand, the games listed below are free and do not contain ads. Some offer microtransactions, others are 100% free. Of course, the list is far from exhaustive, but it may give you ideas.
Genshin Impact
Genshin Impact is an extremely popular game for one reason: it’s a content-heavy RPG that’s free and ad-free. It’s often compared to Breath of the Wild, but the multiplayer components make it unique.
At the same time, it is also a gacha-type game, which means the presence of a payment system. Everything is technically free, as you earn in-game money as you play. But with real money it is easier and faster.
Pokémon UNIT
Pokemon UNITE is a MOBA. Instead of sending you out to hunt these creatures, you form teams of 5 to take on another team of 5. The gameplay is similar to League of Legends or Dota.
But in the Pokémon universe. With attacks, of course, but all together against the opposing team.
Apex Legends for mobile
Apex Legends Mobile is not a port of Apex Legends. This is a well thought out and developed version for iOS and Android. With the same team battle royale experience.
Rocket League Sideswipe
While Rocket League doesn’t actually have a mobile port, Rocket League Sideswipe does. Core Rocket League concepts are present with 2D gameplay from left to right. You must score and prevent the other side from doing so.
two spies
Two Spies is a 1v1 turn-based game. Your goal is to eliminate another spy before he does so during the Cold War on a board game-style map of Europe. You choose the city in which you will hide, collect information and try to scare off the enemy. A simple idea, but a complex strategy. Unfortunately, it’s only available on iOS.
Orna
Orna is a GPS-based multiplayer RPG. Just like in Pokémon GO, you use the world around you to play, but enemies appear all the time, you don’t have to look for them. You travel, you fight, you gain experience, you progress in talent. With other players or alone, it’s up to you.
There is also a large community, particularly on Discord and Reddit.
mekorama
Mekorama is a puzzle game that puts you in the place of a lost robot. Much like Nintendo’s Monument Valley or Captain Toad, but completely free and without ads. There is also a VR version for Android for €3.99.
Seedship
Seedship is a text-based exploration game. You play as the artificial intelligence of a ship carrying a population of cryogenic colonists. You must find a new home for Humanity. And everything is randomly generated.
Pocket Aircraft
Pocket Planes is not a flight simulation game. Instead, you need to fill your planes with passengers and cargo to earn money to buy other airports around the world and expand your airline empire.
As you progress, you unlock planes, you can customize them, and more.
Headhunter Space Lizard
Bounty Hunter Space Lizard puts you in the shoes of a lizard turned bounty hunter. Through the dungeons, you attack your enemies step by step, with weapons or bare hands. Simple but very effective.
Farm RPG
Farm RPG is not your average farming simulation game. Graphically, it’s very simple. The focus is on strategy. You decide what to plant, when to research, what to buy, etc. All with players who are often very passionate.
rocket flop
In Flop Rocket, you have to guide a test rocket through a laboratory in a dangerous cave. One finger to control the reactors, the other direction. Two hits and you’ll explode. Very difficult. But after a few games, you’ll get comfortable and be able to start upgrading your rocket.
Doesn’t go to work
“Do not Commute”is a unique strategy game. At each level you carry a passenger. Simple, right? But every previous ride appears on the road when you start a new level. Things get complicated quickly and the game becomes a real headache. Unfortunately, there have been no updates for a long time that do not allow optimizing the game for modern smartphones.
DATA
DATA WING is a different type of racing game. You are a spaceship, represented by an icon in the style of Space Invaders. Your goal is to deliver information to the main computer, Mother. You control the ship with just two controls. Just in theory, hard to master.
Ninja Arashi and Ninja Arashi 2
Ninja Arashi and Ninja Arashi 2 are completely free and complete action games. Your wife has been killed, your son has been kidnapped. It’s up to you how to progress through the levels to save him. The two games represent two “episodes”of the story, so they need to be done in order. The former, however, has not been optimized for modern phones.
