With Covid-19 still going around, there hasn’t been much to do except stay home, scroll through social media, and play video games all day. However, some may not have a console or PC to play video games, but what they do have is their cell phone. In today’s day and age, it’s common to see people with cell phones everywhere you look, either watching movies, texting, or best of all, playing mobile games. Mobile games allow cell phone users to have tons of unique and challenging games all in their pocket, sort of like a Game Boy or Nintendo DS.

Today, I’m going to share 5 of the best mobile games that’ll keep you occupied during Covid times. 

5 Best Mobile Games to Download on Your Phone

5. Roblox

Although Roblox is looked down upon by thousands and seen as a kid’s game, it’s actually a gaming engine with tons of different games for all ages, all for free. You can play horror, adventure, RPG, or even role-play in games like DaHood. Not only that, but you and your friends can play together through multi-platform features allowing you to join each other’s games. On Roblox, you’ll never have to worry about getting bored because there are an infinite amount of community-built games you can play, with new ones being created daily.

4. Plants Vs. Zombies 2

Plants Vs. Zombies 2 is one of the classic games that I still love playing today. It’s a strategy game where you have a team of weaponized plants who defend their lawn against huge waves of zombies. In Plants Vs. Zombies 2 you can go from world to world collecting tons of unique and different plants with special abilities to help defend your lawn. You can also face other players in the Arena where you can show off your strategic, zombie-bashing abilities.

3. Marvel Contest of Champions

If you’re a Marvel fan who loves all of the superheroes and villains from the Marvel Universe then Marvel Contest of Champions should already be downloaded on your phone. This game takes most of the amazing heroes and villains from the Marvel Universe and puts them on your phone, allowing you to collect and fight with them. The main goal is to collect and build your ultimate team of champions to complete the campaign or unique challenges displayed in the fight tab. You can also do quests or go head to head against other teams in order to get rewards so you can level up and build your team to perfection.

2. Call of Duty Mobile

Call of Duty Mobile takes all of the amazing mechanics of the Call of Duty franchise and puts it all on your phone. You can go solo or team up with your friends to take on others in either Battle Royale or Multiplayer game modes. You can play tons of classic game modes like Team Death Match, Search & Destroy, and Domination. You can also play some special game modes like 10 vs 10, Attack of the Undead, or even Prop Hunt. Not only can you play tons of game modes, but you can also create unique gun classes that best suit your skillset. There’s also a bunch of different skins and weapon camos you can collect to customize your soldier to best suit your liking.

1. Minecraft

Out of all of the mobile games that cost money to play, Minecraft would be the only one worth buying. You can do and build almost anything you can imagine or survive in a world where monsters are trying to kill you. Minecraft is meant to be a survival game where you’re supposed to gather supplies, mine, and build to finally beat the boss, The Enderdragon. However, you can do a lot of other things like build roller coasters, huge houses, or simply blow up the world in either creative or survival mode. You can explore infinite worlds or build anything your heart desires with friends too, allowing you to interact with each other and have endless fun.
