We’ve been big fans of Miniclip for a long time. It all started in 2001 when a website with games turned into a world renowned reference for mobile gaming. It grew so expansive that they even released a few titles for current gen consoles. Their specialty is live action games with simple gameplay mechanics that can be enjoyed by anyone. We’ve selected some of their most famous games for this list of the best games by Miniclip for Android.
Bowling King: The Real Match
Miniclip has a series of online competitive games centered around different sports. One of those is about the world of bowling, which is one of the most iconic activities of the United States. Your task is to win each online PvP match the game throws at you to move up in the rankings and get different items. In addition to classic bowling matches, there are several other game modes to add a bit of spice to the experience. [Download]
Rail Rush
The endless runner genre is one of the most heavy exploited genres by big companies in the world of mobile gaming. Miniclip has also jumped on the bandwagon, but they managed to add a unique twist to their title Rail Rush. Rather than simply running forward for ever and ever, here you have to ride a wagon and try to collect as much gold as you possibly can. It’s not exactly outstandingly original, but it is a fun game with a unique setting and interesting mechanics. [Download]
Soccer Stars
Who out there hasn’t played a game of bottle-cap soccer before? That’s exactly what you’ll do in Soccer Stars, an Android classic which still maintains a solid player base to face off against. The online matches are won by the first player who manages to score two goals. It’s a great concept that’s been perfectly adapted to touch screen devices. This game’s popularity doesn’t seem to be dying down any time soon. [Download]
Football Strike
Here we switch out the bottle caps for a goal post. In this shoot out festival you have to score more points than your online opponent to win. Fortunately you have the help of a bulls-eye on the goal post that you need to draw a line to in order to score. At first it’s as easy as it sounds, but later on you have to really be quick. The game slowly adds new levels of difficulty like training bars that block your shots and moving targets that make the game a bit more interesting. [Download]
Agar.io
A game like Agar.io truly needs no introduction. This game’s popularity skyrocketed online for so long that it’s difficult to find anyone on Earth that hasn’t already played it. On top of that, Agar.io has spawned a bunch of games that copy its basic gameplay formula in which you have to get bigger in order to avoid getting swallowed up. It’s endless fun. [Download]
Basketball Stars
We’ve already seen bowling and soccer, so now it’s time for some basketball. The basic gameplay is the same: PvP matches where you have to get more points than your opponent. It also features the standard unlockable content and a progressive ranking system. But the most interesting thing about Basketball Stars is that you don’t have to aim the shots, just control the power behind them. [Download]
Flip Master
It might not seem like jumping on a trampoline would be the most interesting concept to come out of a brainstorming session, but Flip Master proves the contrary. This Miniclip title takes the gameplay of Flip Diving and expands it by adding a rebound effect to each jump you make. It takes a while to get the hang of it, as seen in our gameplay video, but little by little you’ll get better and start adding new flips to your repertoire. [Download]
8 Ball Pool
This little game of billiards is no joke. 8 Ball Pool is one of the most played multiplayer games around and one of Miniclip’s most famous titles. Its simplicity, combined with its depth, is its greatest strength. The player base is also impressive, with tons of people playing it from the first day it came out. [Download]
Plague Inc
2012 was the year this gem in which you play the bad guy was released. Your objective is to infect humanity with a pathogen in order to wipe out all life on the planet. The concept is a bit crazy, but this strategy game is incredibly original. You can’t take any direct actions in the game, but you can evolve your lethal agent to modify its behavior. It has a steep learning curve, but it’s the kind of game you can play for hours and hours on end. And keep an eye out for the notifications it sends, which are hilariously ironic. [Download]
Bowmasters
Miniclip’s games generally feature a similar visual style, but Bowmasters is exception to the rule. Its unique graphics are just a preview of what the game offers: it’s an amazing shooting game in which you have to hit your opponent before they hit you. It’s a super fun title with an unexpected level of gore that will fulfill your need for violence. There is truly no end to the fun this game offers. [Download]
