It’s time to sum up the best new games found on Android this month. The April releases have been overshadowed by the release of The Elder Scrolls: Blades which, after its limited release, is now available for all users. However, there are plenty of other titles that are worth mentioning this month as well. We’ll save you the trouble of searching for a needle in a haystack, by providing you with our list of the top 10 free games on Android.

Super Mecha Champions

The success of the studio NetEase is not normal. Their incredible ability to churn out games like hotcakes means that they cover practically any an all popular genres that exist. Super Mecha Champions is proof of this. Beyond the fact that it looks like yet another battle royale, this game stands out for offering the people what they want: anime style and the possibility to drive giant robots in certain key moments on the battlefield. Currently, it’s still in tester phase, but we’ll all be able to enjoy its awesomeness soon enough. [Download]

Grand Mountain Adventure

Sometimes, all it takes is the smallest of gestures to achieve true success. Grand Mountain Adventure is a humble skiing game with carefully designed, yet equally stark graphics. But the real magic of the game is how it makes you feel. There’s a good reason it was one of the games nominated for the title of best game of the year at the IMGAs. It’s a must-have. [Download]

Blade II – The Return of Evil

A good hack and slash needs to have a few basic ingredients in order to be successful: attractive graphics, a simple yet addicting combat system, and a certain degree of brutality to fulfill our vigilante appetites. Blade II – The Return of Evil checks off every requirement, being one of the best 3D action titles for Android, with traces of both Diablo and some of the most entertaining Android MMOs. [Download]

The Elder Scrolls Blades

Without a doubt, the most resounding release of the month was the exclusive installment of The Elder Scrolls saga for mobile devices. The essence is maintained in terms of the first-person dungeon exploring, but it’s been adapted for touchscreens and offers short rounds that fit with the Freemium format. All to collect resources to help you improve your hometown that’s been burned down. Time will tell if this one manages to last after all the hype dies down. [Download]

VALKYRIE ANATOMIA -The Origin-

Square Enix has managed to reinvest the resources necessary to come back to life in the mobile market. Valkyrie Anatomia serves as a prequel to the original Valkyrie Profile released in 2006. It presents us with a new adventure set in a parody of Nordic mythology where you’ll even cross paths with Lenneth, the main character from the original title. In this case, everything revolves around semi-assisted turn-based strategic combats with oustanding graphics. Some sagas stay in our hearts forever. [Download]

Fantasy Stars

Clash Royale casts a long shadow. Not a week goes by without half a dozen titles trying to ride the wave of the success of the game from Supercell. Fantasy Stars is one of the top students thanks to its great graphics and the fact that, in addition to your troops that appear from your deck of cards, you can freely move the hero who leads your army.

#DRIVE

Less is more. If you want to pick apart this game’s mechanics, there’s not much to say. #DRIVE is a basic driving game with endless settings where your only mission is to overcome obstacles and collect items to get as far as possible. But the few things it offers, it does so exquisitely. Great graphics, nice controls, and a good sense of humor with comments throughout the game. [Download]

Mindsweeper Puzzle Adventure

There was a time when the “adventures with puzzles” genre was a total hit. It’s been a while since we’ve seen things like Myst, but we do appreciate the fact that the genre continues to reinvent itself with games like this Mindsweeper Puzzle Adventure. [Download]

After Burner Climax

It was a shame that an awesome game like After Burner Climax wasn’t available on any platform after being deleted from Google Play a few years ago. Luckily, SEGA has brought it back to life with this update of the iconic arcade game through the SEGA Forever line, where they’re publishing tons of classic titles from the company for free.

Arena Stars: Battle Heroes

Arena Stars is a pocket-sized strategy game where you have to defeat the rival team using your collection of troops. You’ll need to wisely manage the cost to deploy your troops in order to be successful. If you’re a fan of real-time PvP without too many complications, this is the game for you. [Download]
