Clash Royale

I don't play this game often anymore but I used to play it every minute of the day when it first came out. You collect cards that have different skills and you can power them up. You go into battles with other players to win crowns and level up. You can create your own decks which holds up to 8 cards each, but during battle only 4 are shown until you play a card then the next will appear. It's a really fun game until you start losing 2 games..then 3, then 4, until you finally give up. I call it stress losing. I always think the next game I'll win, but I'm really just stuck on a losing streak.

Episode

I don't actually play this game anymore but I've kept it on my phone just because if I ever do decide to play again, my data won't be erased. You choose a storyline you want to play and there are lots to choose from. I think this game is intended for girls though since all the stories I've played have been girls. Whichever story you choose, you can choose what you want your character to do. (Ultimately I think the story ends up the same either way you choose) But it's still interesting because it's like watching a mini show but you get to interact with it.

Throwdown

I got this app about three weeks ago because a friend recommended it to me. The characters in the game are ones on television shows from adult swim. You battle the computer or other players with cards. Each card is different and can either be characters or objects. Certain ones have special moves and you can combine cards to create better ones. I've reached level 9 so far and there's still a lot more combinations and cards to discover so I may be playing for a while.

Pokemon GO

I'm sure 90% of us have played Pokemon Go, or at least tried it. I don't play it as often anymore, but when it first came out it was a really fun game. If you don't know what it is, it's basically a game where you catch Pokemon and you have to physically move around to find them. You can also battle gyms to level up faster. It was insane how many people would be walking around the aquarium and Kakaako area when the game first came out. I'm not sure how much I will be playing anymore, but I will most likely start playing more often when the next set of Pokemon come out.

Wordalot

About a month ago I downloaded an app called Wordalot. I'm not sure how I came across it, but I'm glad I did because I play it every single day. The game is like those crossword puzzles you find in newspapers but it gives you a picture instead. There can be a picture of a sunset with the ocean, birds, sand, people, etc and you have to fill in the spaces where the blocks are. It's easier than the original crossword puzzle, but sometimes they'll use different words you may not be used to. There can be a hat in a picture, so you would think hat! But sometimes they'll be specific and use bigger words to make it harder. I'm currently in the "Smart" pack, but there's still a lot more to go. http://wordalot.info
