10 perfect iPhone games to play on the go

Not everyone has the luxury of going out with a Nintendo Switch or a Steam Deck handheld. Fortunately, there are also plenty of games that you can play on your iPhone on-the-go. Dennis Mons scoured the App Store and shares some gems with you.

A train or bus trip can easily be filled with apps such as whatsapp, Instagram, Twitter or TikTok. Yet it is sometimes really fantastic to be completely in your own world and let loose with a few nice games. In that respect, your iPhone has plenty to offer.

Gaming on your iPhone for not too much money

Many of these games are Froe To Play, but of course there is a catch. Either you get to see annoying commercials, or you have to purchase items, characters or levels in the game. Not an insurmountable fact in itself, as it does not involve huge amounts. If you are not waiting for that anyway, there are also plenty of games that you can purchase in one go, for relatively little money.

I would like to emphasize that smartphone games are still underestimated. Many serious gamers are quite cynical about these types of games. But I, who also really enjoy the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox and PC, find games like Bricks ‘n Balls great entertainment on the way to work. That is exactly why I have listed a number of recommendations for you!

1. The Simpsons Tapped Out

This free game is a funny combination of a SimCitygame and fun mini-games. The aim is to use resources to get out of the famous city of Springfield The Simpsons to build, but in your own way. Anyway, the game looks fantastic

2. Marvel Future Revolution

The iPhone also has an excellent title to offer for fans of superheroes. Marvel Future Revolution is a nice summary of about 15 years of Marvel movies. In this action-RPG you mainly compete against famous bad guys from the universe.

3. Crash Bandicoot: On the Run

crash is an absolute icon. He made his debut on the PlayStation 1 and is still a legend. Of course, the game on the iPhone is not a console version, but still a lot of fun to play.

It is a runner-game like Sonic. Along with famous characters like cocoa and aku aku so ram through levels dr. Cortex to stop. It all sounds familiar to people who have played the console games. Crash has his well-known moves such as spinning attacks and jump slides.

4. My Friend Pedro: Ripe for Revenge

My Friend Pedro is now a cult classic. In any case, the crazy Shoot ’em Up on iPhone is very similar to its “big brother” on consoles and PC. The controls have been adapted for the smartphone, but the game is just as hectic and funny as the original.

5. pokemon go

This is also a classic. Never before has a game mobilized so many players to get out and about. In case you don’t know (no idea why not): it is intended that you, rare or not, pokemon captures through Augmented Reality. Although the game has been around for six years, it is still extremely popular thanks to updates and expansions.

6. Hitman: Sniper

Perhaps one of our favorites, if only for the fact that you play as the famous Agent 47. Unlike the ‘normal’ game, it’s in sniper The intention is that you only use a sniper rifle. Then you are, as is called in the Dutch army: SLA (really). There are over 150 missions and eleven different contracts to complete. So enough to do.

7. limbo

limbo is without a doubt one of the darkest games you can play on your iPhone. And that is both literally and figuratively. The game is in black and white and has beautiful graphics and animations. As you plow through the dark landscape, scary shadow children and giant spiders chase you. It is without a doubt one of the best indie games ever and will have you on the edge of your (train) seat.

8. Monument Valley 2

This intriguing puzzle game is not only beautiful, but also challenging. Clever camera angles allow you to rotate buildings and levels so that parts of the level suddenly collapse like Escher works of art. Importantly, both games are absolutely delightful to play. Wherever. They are masterpieces and play great on iPhone.

9. PUBG Mobile

We couldn’t leave this third-person shooter off the list. It is the most popular smartphone game to date. The PC version was one of the first games to battle royalegenre big. The iPhone version is a bit more malleable than the console and PC versions, but the determination to make a Chicken Dinner to achieve (to win), there is really no less.

10. Among Us!

Even though the game is now as old as the road to Rome (in game terms), this one remains a favorite. Perhaps the game is less convenient to play in a train or bus (unless you can type quickly); it remains hilarious.

In Among Us! players have to figure out which of the other players is ‘SUS’ (suspect). Their job is to kill other players. If someone thinks they have figured out who might be a murderer, a meeting can be called and consultations are allowed. But if you (any player) can’t explain what your alibi was, after a vote you will be geyeet (kicked out).

It works very well on mobile, but we recommend using one at home Discordchannel and enjoy listening to the squabbles while playing innocence itself.
