Get the biggest bang for your buck with games that never end
Sometimes, we can only budget so much space on our handy Android phone or tablet with gaming apps. Or perhaps it's a personal preference not to build an overwhelmingly large library of games, so we'd prefer to stick to a select handful of prestigious titles to pass the time. No matter the reason for gravitating towards some titles with endless gameplay, you've come to the right place to pick up a game or two that offers plenty of longevity and replayability.
Choosing the best adventure games on Android involves trawling through a wide variety of sub-genres. From horror games like Alien: Isolation to charming detective puzzlers like Tricky Tower, the Play Store has a colossal variety of adventure titles. These make up some of our favorite games on Android, and we've selected the finest for this roundup.
Over the years, technology has vastly grown, and games have diversified heavily, opening up the realm of possibilities for digital inclusion in hobbies. And when it comes to balancing your time between your favorite hobbies and your significant other, it can be a real ordeal. But it's no secret that cultivating a healthy relationship between couples means being open about your passions. Thankfully, the advantage of playing great multiplayer games on mobile means most budget Android phones are already well-equipped to handle them, so accessibility isn't a concern. So to make the most out of your experiences without spending too much, we've rounded up a list of some of the best Android games that let you share and bond with your partner.

However, other forthcoming icons are still here to make an impressionable debut — time to dig through the best Android games that deserve full use out of your favorite Android gaming phone.

Last year we saw how Google's push for developers to dive into augmented reality support paid off with a slew of AR releases on the Play Store. It would appear that this excitement has died down in the last few months, though there are still more than a few quality AR apps and games landing on Android that are worth pointing out. So without further ado, here are the newest and notable augmented reality games and apps released in the last seven months.
There was a huge uptick of augmented reality apps and games released on the Play Store back in March that was a result of ARCore's expanded device support. AP covered both the games and apps published at the time, but I wanted to keep track of further releases just to see if we could keep these AR roundups going. It may have taken four months, but I finally have a solid AR roundup for all of our readers. This time around, instead of writing two separate lists, I have combined both apps and games into one article. So without further ado, here are the best new AR apps and games released in the last four months.
