One of the best things about mobile gaming is that a variety of games are available to download and play. And with smartphone technology developing each year, you can now play almost any game genre on mobile. So, whether you enjoy RPGs, FPSs, puzzles, or auto battlers, there’s something for everyone.
Generally, games cost money to play. A number of games on the iOS app store, however, are free to play. But with most free games, items, content, characters, or passes can be purchased with real-world money. Though, they’re optional and aren’t necessary to play the base game.
