Gaming on handheld devices is hotter than ever, and that means you will have quite a few different options when you start looking for something to play on your Android device. Whether you are looking for a phone or a tablet game, you have a wealth of different choices, and it can sometimes be difficult to figure out which ones will actually be a good fit for you. No need to worry though! We’ve compiled a list of some of the very best free Android games to play in 2015.

Skyward

Here’s an interesting game that might seem simple at the outset, but that’s really quite complex once you get started. You will have control of two circles, one red and one blue, and you must then guide those circles through levels that have a definite M.C. Escher feel to them. As you progress through the level, the platforms fade behind you and your circles begin to shrink. You need to move fast, and you need to make smart moves to get through this puzzle/platformer.

New Words With Friends

Chances are you have probably heard of the first iteration of this game. It’s quite a bit of fun, and it allows you to play with multiple people at the same time. It’s similar to Scrabble, as you have to create new words from a set of tiles. One of the biggest updates to the new game is that you will finally be able to track your overall performance.

Hopeless: The Dark Cave

If you are in the mood for a shooter, then this might be able to fit the bill for you. It’s a unique little game that puts your characters into a cave, as you would imagine from the title. You must then try to survive by shooting at waves of monsters. Despite the fact that it is a shooter, the art style has a cutesy quality to it. The game doesn’t have an end either. You just keep going and upgrading your weapons until you can’t keep your character from being devoured by the darkness.

Plants vs. Zombies 2

Of course, this is one of the big names when it comes to handheld gaming on mobile devices. Everyone loved the original, and now you get more of the same, albeit with more powers, plants, and zombies, naturally. It’s a free game, but there are in-app purchases. You don’t need to buy anything to enjoy it though, so have fun!
