Hey friends!

I'm currently updating the list of best/most popular shooting games for Android and I'd like to know what y'all are playing.

Games don't have to be FPSs — anything being shot with anything else will do :D

Thanks a lot for your input.

As a retired gamer (just don't have the time or money anymore), who now only plays mobile games, I definitely have thoughts. Here are some games that come to mind.

Modern Combat 5 https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ameloft.android.ANMP.GloftM5HM&token=Je0EoTGl
The Modern Combat series started as Gameloft's android-answer to the Modern Warfare console games, but it's evolved into a quality gaming franchise in it's own right. 5 is the latest (and there best looking) one, but I've played 3, 4, and 5 and they were all good (1 and 2 were kinda weak). 5 also was the first one to have a really good multiplayer mode.

Shadowgun https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...d=com.madfingergames.shadowgun&token=GrKgkOzk
Shadowgun reminds me a lot of Gears of War but with just 1 character instead of a squad. Gameplay is very similar though.

Gunman Clive https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ps/details?id=beril.mootor.gmc&token=qDuAOoU8
This game was a lot of fun. It reminds me of the old Mega Man NES games. 2D sidescrolling platformer with lots of shooting at stuff.

Deus Ex: The Fall https://forums.androidcentral.com/e.../details?id=com.squareenix.dxm&token=6QGUdRCc
This was a really good unique Deus Ex game (stealth shooter). It got poor review when it released on console/PC because it's not that good and kinda short, but for a mobile game it's was a lot of fun. (The Dead Space android game was GREAT, and Mass Effect android game was pretty good too, but both seems to have been abandoned. You can't find them through search anymore.)

Age of Zombies https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...brick.ageofzombies&hl=en&gl=us&token=gOtkakYR
This is a top-down dual-stick shooter. Cartoony but a lot of fun; shooting Zombies is always fun.

Hitman: Sniper https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ixmontreal.hitmansniperandroid&token=tEfyFXKT
This is a sniper game with a lot of puzzle elements. I had a whole lot of fun playing it for a while, but it does get monotonous because you basically play the same level over and over with different objectives. That being said, the objectives were different enough, and the variety of sniper riffles was unique enough to hold my attention for a few weeks.

XCOM: Enemy Within https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...etails?id=com.tt2kgames.xcomew&token=SDEgTx8g
Ok, so this is a strategy game, not a shooter, but it's only one of the best strategy game ever, so I had to mention it. This is a direct port of the PC/console version with the expansion pack. Hours and hours strategy and shooting aliens in the face!!! (No real-time live-action shooting though; it's turn-based strategy. Still, shooting an alien in the face is SO satisfying.)

That's all I got right now, if I think of anything else, I'll let you know.

Hey Cale, I'm not a player, but still get to play any Angry birds from time to time, the Star Wars ones more often than the others.
On my Gear VR I love playing Gunjack. Just don't have enough time to play often.

Are you open to reviewing my space shooter and tell me what you think or even include it in your list if you like it? I will pm you the name so as not to spam. I was inspired by the r-type series on Gameboy but it's different.
