Pixel Dungeon. Game is awesome, free, and doesn't ask any permissions on download.
Plague Inc. is also one of the better games I have played, I used to play the Flash game all the time.
Elder Sign is also awesome.

Some good ones that aren't free: Plants V. Zombies, FF Dimensions, Bloons TD

The sandbox
Puzzle forge
Other random junk I don't play that much anymore.

Oh that reminds me, my little brother got some version of Pokemon on his phone - it's not an emulation or anything. But it excited me.

That's about all I remember about it.

Yeah, but it's done by EA, isn't it? They tend to put a lot of spyware built into their games to collect gamer's information.

:/ I don't believe that nor do I care, the game is too fun.

Even if they do it's a mobile game anyway. Do you really use it for classified things?

The catch with Plants Vs Zombies 2, at least when it came out, was twofold, at least to some people.

1. It's technically only available on the itunes app store or google play. In other words, on phones and tablets. It has not officially been released on pc yet, although it is supposed to come to pc eventually.

2. The game, when it came out, had so many blatant microtransactions that affected gameplay that people complained so much that they were actually convinced to remove a ton of it. And its still kind of ........... a lot of microtransactions left. Some of them still plants. ......... Yeah.

The game is too easy to really need those. I am basically 3/4th of the way done and I have almost never used one of the bonuses that require money. I have over 50 plant saplings because I rarely use plant boosts. Every level is beatable with what you have unlocked beforehand, and with whatever boosts you get in that level.

BTW, for anyone who enjoyed Cookie Clicker and Candy Box, Make it Rain on Android is another clone of those. The only downside I've found tot he game so far are the ads, which get removed for any $0.99 purchase of in game items if you really can't stand them.

A universal app that is an absolute gem of a mobile game is Badland. Android has the better deal, too, with nearly half the game offered for free to try out (40 levels). Plus it keeps getting updated with more levels! I would heartily recommend at least trying it out. It's a fantastic experience.

I downloaded it about a month ago. It's very pretty but the gameplay is something I have seen before so I got bored after dying a few times :v

I thoroughly enjoyed Badland, but some of the "puzzles" felt a little on the random side to me.

I know I would not have enjoyed Badland nearly as much if I hadn't been introduced to Extra Credits (the show) first. It made me realize how well-designed the game is; without giving you a word of dialogue or ounce of explanation, every power-up, obstacle, and "enemy" is introduced in a way that allows you to quickly and easily understand exactly what they do and how to handle them. As you progress it becomes a matter of how well you've come to understand its mechanics and how accurately you can fly.

(If you can't tell, I love the game.)

Been playing Shadow Era. A little boring with no instants, but it's a fairly solid idea. The game glitches out here and there, but since its free and only takes a little time and effort to grind out the gold to buy whatever you want, it's pretty good.

I feel like calling it spyware is going a little overboard. It probably tracks gaming habits, but avoiding these features is pretty hard these days unless you don't use Facebook and Google products.

Neuroshima Hex might be worth checking out. I know it has some big fans out there, even if I find the game incredibly dull.
Seems like Summoner Wars is available on android devices as well. Worth checking out, even if I haven't tried it personally.

Into the Dead has been really fun, one of the better Run Forever style games I've played.

I'm not sure how many people are aware of Threes, but it's a fantastic game. It was the inspiration for the inspiration for 2048 (2048 actually being essentially a clone of 1024, which was inspired by Threes). If you got any sort of enjoyment from playing 2048, you would get twice as much from Threes; especially if you're the kind to analyze games as you're playing them. You can really almost feel the thought that went into Threes that isn't there in 2048, as well as the amount of thought that the player has to put into Threes vs. 2048.

It's basically a high-score puzzle game, but it's cheap (I think like $4) and should easily give you hours of fun.
