Smartphones – iPhones, BlackBerries, Androids etc. – are popular all over the world, and may one day end up displacing computers as the most essential piece of technology that can be owned by anyone. A key part of smartphones’ growing popularity is the range of interactive apps that can be downloaded and used for leisure. Games are amongst the most popular apps being downloaded for smartphones, and no wonder. The interactive element and the fact that they can be played on the move all help to explain why they’re downloaded by thousands, if not millions.
Here are some of the most popular interactive gaming apps around today:
Words With Friends
Loosely based on Scrabble, this word game links in with social media (namely Facebook) and allows friends to play each other at leisure. It’s proved to be one of the biggest hits in the app market, and has millions of players worldwide.
It has spawned a handful of imitators, but none of them have the interactive element that allows friends to play against one another from different locations, nor the chance to see if they can top the list of best players.
Bingo from Ladbrokes
Online bingo has grown in popularity in recent years, and has made the transition from computers to smartphones and tablets with ease. There are a number of bingo apps available that have different variations of the game available to play.
Despite the wide choice available to bingo fans of online apps, playing bingo online from ladbrokes is more user-friendly and has better prizes on offer. Plus, its interface is easier on the eye, which makes it stand out from the crowd.
Draw Something
This fun app is enjoyed by adults and children alike. It allows users to draw to their heart’s content, bringing out the creative side in those who are really into it.
Another element of this app is that users can play a picture game with friends or random users for points, which sounds great. It’s also great for linking to social media sites, which is perfect for sharing drawings with friends and followers.
Xbox Live
Compatible with all Windows Phones, Xbox Live is an app which connects to your Xbox and allows you to play games with your smartphone. The app is a must-have for any gaming fan, and combines ease of play with amazing graphics.
