The best video game classics for Android tablets and iPad (2017)

super mario run game

In view of the fact that these weeks a few video game classics are being the protagonists of today (the advances of Nintendo in the field of mobile devices without a doubt they have a lot to blame for them), it is impossible not to let ourselves be overcome by nostalgia and dedicate our selection today to refresh our top 5 (+1) with the most interesting titles from the childhood of video games, the forerunners of everything we have today, which we can now also enjoy on our tablets and smartphones. Here are a few of those that you can find in the App Store and in Google Play that you cannot stop trying, if only out of scientific curiosity or to relive for a moment what I am sure were some of the best moments of your childhood / youth.

Super Mario Run

We start with the classic among the classics, whose debut we have been waiting for years as we watched a myriad of games “inspired” by it proliferate in both the App Store and Google Play: Super mario bross. IOS users had already been able to sink their teeth into it a few months ago, but Android users had their first opportunity to do so this week. Admittedly, there are many unconditional fans of the game who have been disappointed by this version for mobile devices, but if only to criticize it, you have to at least give it a try.

Sonic the hedgegog 

Sonic the Hedgehog

And if we talk about Super Mario Bross, obviously next it has to come Sonic, which was always his great rival, the main claim of the video consoles of SEGA. In this case, it has been a long time since we can enjoy the super speed of the famous porcupine on our mobile devices, and both in the App Store and in Google Play we already have a huge variety of games starring him and his friends to choose from, although for this selection, of course, we have to highlight this Sonic the Hedgehog that was the origin of everything, the title that started the saga.

final Fantasy

Although platform games always feature prominently in these lists of video game classics, platform games also have their little corner in them. RPG, especially thanks to the dear final Fantasy which actually saw the light only a few years after Mario Bross (this one debuted in 1983 and this one in 1987). It has also been a long time since we have been able to relive many of the best moments of this saga on our mobile devices, although, unfortunately, doing so has always been much more expensive than in other cases. In this particular selection, however, we wanted to highlight the first title as well.

tomb raider

Compared to our first three titles, tomb raider It seems almost a novelty, since it made its debut well into the 90's and it is easy to see that it is a much more advanced game than the others in many ways. In any case, it is still an essential reference between adventure games and its protagonist, Lara CroftIt is undoubtedly one of the most emblematic, so it is worth seeing what its origins were. Another point in its favor, looking at the matter in practical terms, it also has in its favor that it is much cheaper than other adaptations and without any type of in-app purchase.

Rayman Classic

We close with another classic that, as happened with Tomb Raider, although it has already been more than 20 years old, it seems relatively new when we compare it with other of these titles. It must be said that this is noticeable in the graphic section, that no matter how much some of the fans of the latest titles in the saga disliked when it was relaunched for mobile devices such as Rayman Classic the first of all of them, for the time they were simply spectacular. It is also appreciated that we will be able to play it for free, even if in this case we do have an in-app purchase. Another must-have title for fans of gaming platforms.

Ghosts'n Gobblins

The extra on our list is for another great video game classic (also with more than 30 years behind it) that has reached mobile devices very recently, although in this case it is not one of the first video game consoles, Rather, it became popular as a PC game (and even arcade machines), and since it did not lead to any saga, as has happened with the others, it may not sound like much to the youngest. It is still basically a platform game, but it already has a lot of what would be an action game with the setting of medieval fantasy.
