In recent years, we saw how quickly online gaming has developed. When I started out, it was impossible to imagine playing with your friend who’s not physically sitting next to you. Today, you don’t even have to leave your bed and walk to your laptop.

Mobile games are on an unstoppable march and are catching up to PC games. Graphics, complexity, storytelling — nowadays, every mobile game has them. Gone are the days of a snake chasing a pixel. In 2019, we can expect multiple new exciting games, and there are five best game types you can play. 

Race Games

We all wanted to be Collin McRae or Michael Schumacher when we were kids. Now, we get to do it with our thumbs, tapping the screen of our phone. These games have developed so far that, as you drive, statistics and metrics pop up, which help you optimize your racing. Oh, and don’t fuss about that ugly stick you need to hold to steer — that’s long gone. Now, you just tilt your phone, and voila, you’ve made a turn! Some of the best games you can look forward to that are coming up are Horizon Chase and Real Racing 3.

Puzzle Games

Who says games are just a worthless loss of time? Give them a puzzle game, and let’s see how they handle it. If you’re up for challenging your mind and playing a game which will try to trick you, there are some promising puzzle games you can enjoy. We finally get to play the next installment of Trivia Crack — Trivia Crack 2. Years after the original debuted, we finally get a new pool of thousands of questions to stress over.

However, my personal favorite in this category is The Room: Old Sins. The Room is probably the most successful series of escape room games, and Old Sins is a worthy newcomer. With a plethora of complex puzzles to solve, you’re more likely to stop playing out of frustration than completion.

Casino Games

First of all, if you intend to play casino games, make sure you’re of age. Nobody here is advocating underage gambling.

Secondly, online gambling has been in development long before mobile gaming itself. As such, there are now thousands of casino apps which offer you a multitude of different casino games, from slots to online poker tables.

Although, the trick here is to choose the right casino app. So how do you do it? I personally look at bonuses. Casinos try to lure you in with their promotions, and you should benefit off of that. For example, BoVegas free spins offer you a chance to make some money without making any deposit.

Adventure Games

Don’t know about you, but I’ve grown up playing Zelda. That gave me a platform to enjoy other adventure games and an opportunity to get immersed in a story. I just love being a hero in far-away, non-existent lands where evil guys rule but I still kick their ass. So if you also love Zelda like me, then we can both enjoy Oceanhorn — a beautiful mobile game with an amazing narrative and captivating visual effects.

Another game I can’t wait to get my hands on is Monster Hunter Stories. A mobile version of a console frenzy, Monster Hunter World, promises a cartoonish world for us to hunt and tame wild monsters in.

First-Person Games

This category is on the rise. I, among others, was most skeptical about this. Would it feel as easy on your mobile? How would you aim? However, the response has arrived, and it’s a satisfactory one. With mobile versions of games like Fortnite and PUBG, we get to play the same battle royale games we play on our consoles.
