Smartphones are great for playing games and watching movies. But what if you want to do both at the same time? What if you’re both a mobile gamer and a movie buff? Well then, these games will interest you. We’ve compiled a list of the best mobile games with their own TV shows, movies, and franchises. While most of these shows and movies were famous first, as you’ll see – that is not always the case.
Batman v Superman: Who Will Win
Liked Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice? You probably didn’t. But it may not be the same with this game. It’s an endless runner, but the graphics are good and instead of random kids running around, you have the two behemoths running through the streets. You can even get cool upgrades like the Batmobile, batarangs etc. They got us hooked with the Batmobile!
MARVEL Future Fight
Marvel’s Future Fight brings the entire Marvel Universe into one game. So does Marvel: Contest of Champions, but we like this RPG version better. You can play in single player mode, with a squad of three superheroes and follow the storyline. We won’t spoil it for you, but the real fans will recognise the name Peter David.
Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes
Come on, this list wouldn’t be over without a Star Wars game would it? Galaxy of Heroes is one of the best. It lets you collect and play with Star Wars characters, from all the movie. It’s an RPG style combat game and you can control Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and more. Kylo Ren is also available!
Jurassic World: The Game
Can you make a better Jurassic Park than the one you saw in theatres? It’s a SimCity-like game that lets you organise Dinosaur battles, make your own park and if that’s not all, breed up to 100 different kinds of unique dinosaur breeds. Someone bring this game to the Samsung Gear VR!
Pokémon (Various)
These days, it seems like every show stands a chance of getting a mobile game spinoff. Look no further than this Desperate Housewives mobile game. One cultural TV phenomenon that we can all agree is worthy of its own mobile game or ten is Pokémon. In 2021, the augmented-reality catch-‘em-all collector Pokémon Go (iOS, Android) should need no introduction. Chances are that if you didn’t play this title yourself, you still will have seen avid players stepping out into bus lanes to try to catch a Squirtle. You may have even had to chase a Charizard-hunter out of your back garden.
Great news for poké-fans, as well as the array of existing mobile games such as Pokémon Masters EX and Pokémon Shuffle, a very exciting looking new Pokémon mobile title is on the horizon – Pokémon Unite.
