There are lots of games in Google Play store, but these best-sellers are toppers for a reason
Android games that proved to be crowd pullers on the Google Play store
FarmVille 2: Country Escape
FarmVille is still popular due to publisher Zynga rehashing this new Android game. The studio revamped its sow-to-grow gameplay but kept its Age-of-Empire throwback of harvesting, crafting and trading. In recent times, Candy Crush and Clash of Clans have stolen FarmVille's thunder.
Lumosity
Lumosity is a popular IQ game comprising a suite of games. With 60 million players already on the web and iOS, it finally came to Android in 2014, with its portal of mini-games intact. Awesome for exercising your brain every day.
QuizUp
It's a collection of user as well as QuizUp staff generated trivia quizzes, with seemingly off-beat as well as obviously popular topics. The one-on-one challenge lets you pit yourself against friends as well as random quizzers.
Family Guy The Quest for Stuff
The Simpsons' freemium mobile game was a big hit in 2013, so Family Guy following suit this year was no surprise. It starts with Peter Griffin having accidentally destroyed his hometown, leaving you with the task of rebuilding it, meeting characters, completing quests and unlocking animations as you go.
Angry Birds Epic
Angry Birds Epic was an intriguing move into a new genre: RPGs. You have to build up a team of birds, craft and upgrade weapons for them, and then see off pigs through turn-based battles, rather than physics-flinging.
Cut the Rope 2
Cut the Rope has launched in its latest incarnation with business as usual: snipping ropes to ensure candy supply into Om Nom's gaping maw.
Boom Beach
Boom Beach is the third game from Supercell, the developer behind Clash of Clans and Hay Day. You have to build an island base and invade opponents, with a military theme and lots of turn-based strategic planning.
Clumsy Ninja
Clumsy Ninja is, according to NaturalMotion, "the most hapless ninja ever to grace a touchscreen". This training game polishes his skills through trampolining, balloon-popping and ninja-basketball.
Bubble Witch Saga 2
Candy Crush Saga is one of the biggest hits of the app store era, and publisher King has followed it up with another Saga game. General mobile gamers continue to love games like this.
