Android Games - The Good, the Bad and the Rip-off!

Has anyone found any good Android games that do NOT keep asking the player to buy stuff? I downloaded a viliage building game called Tiny Village and its constantly asking the player to buy crystals, coins, etc....and if you dont it takes ages to progress through the game! The games a total "money making" con so avoid using it! I would rather pay a few quid for a game and get it complete than have all these expensive "Free" games that end up costing a fortune!

List your good COMPLETE android games here folks:

Sim City Deluxe?

Venture Towns?

Both decent City Builders.

Want one for free?

Not strictly a City Builder but try OpenTTD.

Have you played Sim City Deluxe? Doesn't get rated very well on play store but used to love this game as a child. I also notice there are 2 versions on Play store one for £2.49 and one for £2.96 looks like the same game.

Anyone know of any good strategy games? I've just finished 'Great Big War Game', was fun if a little easy.

Recently bought Max Payne which looks fantastic. It's a 1.3gb data download, but once you start playing it certainly takes a while to get used to such a game being playable on a phone.

Same can certainly be said for GTA 3

Zen Bound 2 is a nice puzzle game, as is Drop the Box.

If yanyone here liked Temple Run then they might be interested in Mutant Roadkill. Same mechanics,

I found it on the Amazon appstore and quite enjoy it.

Try "Townsmen" and "Townsmen 6" - Townsmen 6 is fantastic.

I was looking for a game to play similar to Age of Empires and SimCity has terrible reviews. This is great. The visuals are quirky and cartoony, and the audio is brilliant. It is set during the French revolution so there's some great comic humour involved too. Takes some getting used to at first, but yeah, you should try it.

Just wish the makers would expand it a little bit. Would be nicer to get more staff or bigger premises etc.
But that has to be a good mark of a game when you want MORE of it
