The need to constantly be online to play your favorite game is a real torment for any modern gamer. This disease has reached even the most famous AAA projects from large platforms, let alone our mobile brothers. But what if you have to spend most of the day in a subway car or away from civilization? Is it really possible to give up any interactive entertainment and just endure it? Well, no way! Our material today is published under the motto "No Internet — no problem!". In it, we will tell you about the 10 most exciting, exciting, and high-quality mobile projects that can be played offline.
Plague Inc.
A real classic of Android and iOS games, as well as a great way to murder a few dozen hours on the road. Plague Inc. is a strategic simulator in which you need to construct a disease capable of destroying all life on the planet. We open the map of the Earth, choose a country, select the best mutations for our sore, and start slowly but surely harassing nasty people with weak immunity. It is the perfect game for young biologists, sadistic maniacs, and those who want to have a "coronavirus pandemic at home."
Vampire Survivors
The main indie hit of 2022 and the founder of a whole subgenre of rogue-lite games with the ability to create dozens of absolutely crazy but working builds. It is worth noting that the mobile version of Vampire Survivors is not only played no worse than the versions from the main platforms but is also distributed using a shareware model. This means that you can download the game now and spend several hundred hours eliminating Dracula's minions. Without spending a single ruble on it and without the Internet!
Very Little Nightmares
Mobile games do not often manage to bring something new to already established franchises, from PCs and consoles. Very Little Nightmares is a rare exception to the rule. This is a prequel to the atmospheric horror-dilogy Little Nightmares, telling about the creepy adventures of a little girl in an equally creepy mansion called The Nest. Under our control, the heroine will have to solve puzzles, hide from terrifying monsters, and fight for her life in every possible way. A curious fact is that at the time of release, the game was defeated by critics, but now it is the most highly appreciated project in the entire Little Nightmares franchise.
Soul Knight
Perhaps the main "bagel" for connoisseurs of mobile gaming and just a very pleasant game with lamp-pixel graphics. Over a dozen unique characters, almost three hundred types of various weapons, procedural generation of locations with an abundance of treasures and secrets, and the ability to play without the Internet — what else do you need for a pleasant evening with a smartphone in your hands?
Hitman GO
An intricate puzzle dedicated to the adventures of our beloved bald murderer with a barcode on the back of his head. Carefully move around the map, complete the mission objectives, eliminate annoying guards, and try to anticipate all the actions of rivals. It turns out to be a kind of modern chess but with tactical stealth and an abundance of murders. And if you like the gameplay basis of Hitman GO, then you can pay attention to more modern projects from the same developers: Lara Croft GO and Deus Ex GO.
Dead Cells
An excellent mobile port of one of the best roguelike games of the last two decades. It has literally everything you love: stylish pixel graphics, a dynamic combat system, a huge variety of weapons and skills, a dark ent in the spirit of Dark Souls, and several voluminous DLC (including an excellent crossover with the Castlevania franchise). A dream game? Absolutely!
GRID Autosport
This project inevitably appears in any list of the best smartphone games, and there are very specific reasons for this. GRID Autosport is a large, expensive, and very beautiful car simulator that easily beats up any competitors with iOS and Android. In the year of its release, the game was quite demanding on mobile hardware, but now it runs without problems on almost any device and does not require the Internet for a comfortable game. And what else does a real lover of adrenaline car racing need?
Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc Anniversary Edition
The Japanese visual novel series Danganronpa has long conquered the planet and formed a real cult around itself. If you are still not familiar with the story of a strange school whose students are forced to murder each other, then now is the time. Anniversary Edition is the most complete version of the original game, which has received many pleasant improvements for release on smartphones: modern graphics, convenient touchscreen controls, and a variety of additional content for those who have enough strength for the second and third playthroughs.
Grimvalor
An incredibly stylish hack-and-slash platformer with RPG elements that will help you become part of a dark and exciting adventure. As many as five plot acts, a well—developed ENT, a variety of weapons, and stylish graphics - what's not a reason to stick to the phone for the next eight to ten hours?
Pickle Pete: Survivor
As already mentioned, the success of Vampire Survivors has spawned a whole new genre and inspired dozens of developers to create their own projects in it. Pickle Pete: Survivor is just one of these projects. However, this is rather a clone not of Vampire Survivors itself but of Brotato (almost the best successor to the "vampires" case). Here, we have to play as an anthropomorphic cucumber trying to survive in the zombie apocalypse using any weapon that comes his way. The whole thing looks as crazy as it sounds, but it's great fun and allows you to experiment a lot with character development. Without unnecessary problems and without the need to go on an intern
