It's apparently soon, too. PUBG is a similar game that doesn't let you compete against desktop players but does a fantastic job of re-creating the PC/Xbox One title for a smaller screen. Minecraft's mobile port is exactly like the Switch and Xbox One versions, and you can even cross-play with friends on those two systems. Other console titles worth your time include quirky survival game Don't Starve, story- and music-driven Bastion and the ultraviolent Hotline Miami.

What used to consist of only basic social game ports has grown up into a robust ecosystem of mobile-only games that cost little to play and are also a ton of fun. I'll be the first to admit that Candy Crush Saga and Angry Birds Classic (, ) can provide me with hours of play without spending a dime on extras.
The match-three gameplay of Candy Crush games exemplifies the genre and has several spin-offs, like Candy Crush Soda Saga and Candy Crush Jelly Saga, to keep you entertained for hours. Angry Birds is full of avians being sling-shot at pigs, sure, but there are also some fun alternatives, like the karting game Angry Birds Go and the competitive Angry Birds Friends.
