Here are 10 great options to help you get your gaming fix without all the drama. 

Snake

Remember the classic game snake? One of the few that you could play on the first mobile phones? Well, it’s still a lot of fun, and you can play it, in it’s old-school glory, right from the browser on your phone, no download required. How big can you make the snake before you crash into a wall?

Truck Trials

Do you like a fun, challenging game that doesn’t require downloading? Well, you should definitely check out Truck Trials. Designed after the popular dirt-bike-based trails games, you’ll have to lean, jump, and snake your way over various obstacles and make it to the finish line unharmed. Do you have what it takes?

Madalin Stunt Cars 2

It might come as a surprise, but the cult classic, Madalin Stunt Cars 2 is playable right in your mobile phone browser. Pick your favorite car from a massive list that includes supercars, muscle cars, and sports cars, then complete the stunts as best you can. It’s great fun and playable without download, so what are you waiting for?



Moto X3M

Moto X3M is a fun take on the trials game style that puts you on a dirt bike on a mission to get to the end of the level. Along the way, you’ll have to tackle difficult jumps, deadly obstacles, and a few extra surprises. The best part is you can play it on your phone and you can even save your progress, so you never have to start over. 

Slither.io

If you like snake, then you’ll really like Slither. It’s just like snake, but it’s a 3D world that allows you to play and compete with other players. It takes a minute to get used to controlling the snake since you can move the map while you play, but it’s definitely one of the top-10 browser friendly mobile games to play. 

Super Racing GT Drag Pro

There are a lot of side-scrolling, drag racing mobile games, but all of those require download. Well, that’s not the case for Super Racing GT Drag Pro. You can pick your favorite car and race as much as you want right in your mobile phone browser. The best part? It’s just as good as those downloaded games – you get to control the gas pedal and shifting. Can you become the best drag racer in town?

Cut the Rope

We’re sure you’ve seen advertisements to download Cut the Rope on social media, but did you know that you can play the same exact game right on your mobile phone browser? It’ll even save your progress so you can bookmark the game and pick up where you left off later. Fair warning: It’s highly addictive and highly fun. 

Flappy Bird

Flappy Bird is one of those games that is fun and addicting, but it can also be quite frustrating. That’s the fun of it, though. When you play in your mobile phone browser, simply tap the screen as much as needed to flap the bird’s wings and clear the various obstacles. It’s a lot of fun, but be warmed, you will find yourself losing time if you really get into it. 

PacMan

We’re not talking about some crappy remake, we’re talking about the real-life Pac Man arcade game, playable directly in your browser. Simply control PacMan with the arrow keys on your screen and be careful to avoid Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde – they still have it out for you after all these years. 

2048

Not all browser games are crazy adventures or avoiding obstacles. 2048 is a number game. There are 16 titles and you have to slide the titles up, down, left, and right to joint matching numbers. When two numbers come together they merge into one larger number. The goal is to get each tile to 2048. How long will it take you to master the board?
