So, what games do you like for your smartphone/tablet? Just curious if there are some hidden gems out there I should check out.
So far, I think the ones I like best (on my Nexus 7) are Bad Piggies (same maker as Angry Birds), and Broken Sword.
Bad Piggies is cool because it's less about the finesse of your aim and timing, and more about strategy. There's still some timing involved as you have to "drive" the little vehicles that you build. But the building is the important part, and the challenges on each level can be addressed mostly separately, so it's actually possible to get 3 stars on every level.
Broken Sword is a port of one of the older graphic adventure games from the early 90's, where you play a couple of characters in modern day Paris investigating murders and Templars (and this was made before Templars were such a common theme). Good plot, some humor, and the game lasts a good long time.
Angry Birds is decent, but I get tired of it more quickly. Not enough variety, even with 4 different versions.
Cut the Rope seems to be kind of amusing, haven't played it as much but have done some. Again it's largely timing-dependent, which is a sort of game I'm not generally as fond of.
