Introduction
(scroll down for the actual list)
I recently realized there are still, to this day, some actual “hidden gems” in the Play Store. Not the fake ones everyone talks about which, in a way or another, often have a catch or aren’t very “hidden”. I mean free games with no ads or IAPs of any kind that are fun to play.
So I was thinking maybe it’s time to compile a list of them. Please suggest the ones you’ve found and enjoyed!
I won’t try them all as I did with my premium games list [will update with link as soon as I post it], because this time you could simply download and try them for yourself without spending a dime. I’ll simply list them.
‼️Also, please do checkout https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=minireview.best.android.games.reviews

Entry Criteria
FREE
NO ADS
STRICTLY NO IAPs (except donation buttons, but I’ll have to check before adding the game to the list, so no guarantees it’ll be added quickly)
it has to be a legit game, of course. Full, not demo.
it has to be available on the Play Store and compatible with the latest, official Android version at the time of writing/updating (14)
possibly include a link to the game on the Play Store
I’ve saved this post so to keep it updated over time, for my own reference and for your benefit. So feel free to save it and check out new entries every so often.
