Hearthstone Game — 12. Hearthstone

***Hearthstone*** is easy to jump into and fun to mess around with, even if you have never played a card game before. Inspired by the popular *Warcraft* series, it features various elements and characters that some of you might be familiar with. Just know that if you want to get competitive, it’ll probably cost you more than just time.

Gwent The Witcher Arcade Game — 11. Gwent: The Witcher Arcade Game

***Gwent*** takes the card game from *The Witcher 3* and turns it into a full-blown competitive experience with a deeper deckbuilding system. It’s not as simple as in the RPG, but if you loved *Gwent* back then, this is your next summer obsession.

8. Fortnite

***Fortnite*** is the ultimate shooter experience where you can build, shoot, hide in a bush, launch across the map, or drop in with friends and try something ridiculous. It’s free, addictive, and now that it’s finally back on mobile, summer wins can happen anywhere.

7. Dead Cells

***Dead Cells*** is a slick, fast-paced roguelike where every run feels like a new chance to slash, roll, and blast your way through ever-changing levels. It’s the kind of game you start on a lazy summer afternoon and realize it's suddenly dark outside. If you're looking for a more in-depth look at the game, check out our review.

6. Downwell

***Downwell*** is the kind of fast-paced, pick-up-and-play game that’s perfect for summer downtime. You fall a well with gunboots, blast enemies mid-air, and rack up combos without ever touching the ground, it's wild in the best way.

5. Crossy Road

***Crossy Road*** is an endless arcade hopper that’s easy to pick up, tough to master, and way more fun than it should be. With tons of quirky characters, non-intrusive ads, and just the right level of chaos, it’s the kind of game you’ll keep coming back to between texts or while waiting in line.

4. Balatro

***Balatro*** takes the bones of poker and turns it into a deckbuilding roguelike experience full of absurd combos and ridiculous Jokers. It starts simple, but quickly becomes a strategy rabbit hole, with every new hand you’re just one card away from something completely broken (in the best way possible).

3. Chrono Trigger

***Chrono Trigger*** is one of those rare games that’s just as good today as it was decades ago, with tight pacing, great characters, and time-travel twists that work. It’s a must-play classic for JRPG fans, especially if you can skip the clunky PS1 version.

2. Ludo King

***Ludo King*** brings your favorite childhood board game to your phone and makes it feel new again with fresh themes like Egypt, Disco, and Candy. Whether you're playing with family or matching online, it's easy to get hooked for hours without realizing it.

Block blast game — 1. Block Blast!

***Block Blast!*** is what you open when you’ve got five minutes to kill and end up playing for thirty. This game is simple, colorful, and weirdly addictive, perfect for chasing high scores with friends or just zoning out between texts.
