Best games for the nexus 7

[Tonzilla]

I would suggest FF3, having a hard time putting it down. It's really well done, look it up!

I prefer board game implementations, such as Androminion/Dominion Shuffle and Condado. Both are excellent and free. I wish we could get Le Havre and Puerto Rico and Tigris & Euphrates in Google Play.

The games I've been playing most (and in the order of which I like the most) are:

Zen Pinball THD: You get one table for free and extras are $2 a piece. The Marvel tables are excellent with Wolverine being my favorite and Thor being my least favorite.

Ozmos HD: Really neat game with a cool atmosphere. There's a demo for you to try first.

Game Developer Story: It's not optimized for tablet play or anything, but I still lost a day of my life playing it.

Minecraft PE: I haven't been playing this one as much just because I have the full version on my Xbox, but it will be seeing good use when I go out of town this weekend.

GTA III: Plays surprisingly well with touch control.

World of Goo: Really cool puzzle game and has great atmosphere.

Great Little War Game: Fun little real time strategy ish game. Has some decent humor and later levels are pretty challenging.

And last, Stupid Zombies. It's like Angry Birds but with zombies, and I'm pretty sure that it's free.

I tried to suggest mostly stuff that people haven't already mentioned.

GTA III (use a controller or don't bother)
Roboto (works pretty well without a controller, but better with one)
Chu Chu Rocket (no controller needed)
Sonic CD (works pretty well without a controller, but better with one)

GT3 has no sound!!!

I like order and chaos, pocket legends and star legends, all of which are WoW-type games.

Don't forget the SNES emulator! You can hook up a Wii/PS3/Xbox controller to play with it (I think). I've been revisiting some old school RPGs that I used to love.

Also, I mentioned this game on an earlier post, but I know no one will really check it out without a good description.

Gem Miner 2 - It's $2 on the app store, so far I really like it. It's similarish to Terraria (if you're familiar with that game), you play a miner and you can dig underground, make tunnels, and find ore to sell and upgrade your gear. Each mission has a different set of goals for you to complete (obtain X amount of gems, save people, save X amount of money, find way out). Sounds pretty basic but try the Gem Miner free edition, and if you like that one, Gem Miner 2 paid version is similar but better.

The Island: Castaway - Similar to those stand alone Sims story games and has a "Lost" theme to it (the show). This one is free until a few levels in, then you have to pay to continue. You go around and collect fruits, do quests, explore, cook, and there is a story line. Very fun!

Bakery/Restaurant Story - Not sure if this for everyone but I like it to kill time. It's free and it's basically kind of like a bakery/restaurant version of Farmville but cuter and more to do.

Check it out.

Ski Safari is a blast on either Andoid or ios. You have to outrun an avalanche and achieve objectives while doing so. You'll ride Penguin's, Yeti's , Wolves, Eagles, and Snowmobiles. A better version of "Tiny Wings"

Its a blast and looks great on the N7. Work's just as well on my GN. .99 gets you the App for both....The music is especially well done.

GT3 has no sound!!!

My GTA III on N7 has every sound clip from music to NPC chatter to cut-scenes just like the PS2 game had. Go to your apps under settings, click on GTA III, clear game data then uninstall. Reinstall and hopefully it'll work for you this time.

Not sure if you're running a custom ROM or not, as that may or may not be the issue (I am on Google stock ROM).

And to everyone else: Some interesting choices from games I've never heard about I will definitely look into some demos and go from there.

I bought Shadowgun, Nova 3, Dead Space, Dead Trigger, and Mass Effect Infiltrator. Very impressive graphics on all of them I think. By the way I have the 8g model and these take up most of the space

Mass Effect Infiltrater is really fun, also get some emulators and you can play most console games before the Nintendo 64 (the Nintendo 64 works) and you can get roms for free on coolrom.com.

A few suggestions here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/go...-android-games-download-our-new-nexus-7s.html

I think both threads should be merged.

 

[mikebailey2000]

The Bards Tale is awesome and hilarious if you would like a great send up of classic DnD style RPGs.

 

[Treesham]

[B. Diddy]

Well, it won't help you spend any credit, but I'd recommend Nethack. Free app, old game. Fairly complex roguelike, and it's great on the tablet vs. the phone.

I just downloaded Hero's Call (free) and it's a pretty nice game so far... Graphics are awesome on my N7. If you like Diablo style games then get hero's call.
