Zombie first-person shooters: A license to kill and blow up everything that limps its way toward you wearing tattered clothes and a half-rotted face. There's nothing quite as stress relieving as this - just shooting everything first, and asking questions later. Don't want zombie cooties? Well then get out your Android phones and tablets, and follow along with me as I explore 6 of the finest zombie shooting games Google Play has to offer.

The aim of the game is simple: you must infiltrate the human race, spread your disease and try to wipe-out humanity. It’s a game of strategy and vengeance! I was immediately hooked, and over the last decade or so have played as many variations on the pandemic simulation as possible. I’ve collected the best of the best, from old browser games to cross-platform mobile versions.

If I tell you "this is a great game for your phone, and it's all about using a slingshot," one game will instantly come to mind. Right? Well, it turns out there are ways to use slingshot and slinging that result in a unique game that's nothing like Angry Birds at all: One is a racing game with gorgeous graphics and the simplest controls imaginable, while the other does have you shoot things with a slingshot but isn't like Angry Birds in any other way.

Let's face it, touch controls are terrible for many games. Have you ever tried playing a platformer game on a touchscreen? It's an exercise in frustration. The good news is that you can connect a game controller to your Android device and play games the way they were meant to be played, whether they're controller-enabled Android games or old games played via an emulator.

A lot of games tend to be rehashes of the same concept. Meon isn't one of them.. Fact is, it's rare to find new concepts in mobile gaming; instead, we usually just end up with refinements which are admittedly nice, but sometimes we need breaths of fresh air. Meon may have its flaws, but it presents a new gameplay concept that I haven't seen before.

While not specifically marketed for tablets, let's face it - to fully experience any FPS game, you really need the larger screen of a tablet. You can purchase from a long list of great first person shooters for an Android Tablet, but if you're looking for the affordable option - aka free - Critical Strike is the way to go. The quality of the game jumps right out at the main window when you launch the game.

I can't remember the last time I wrote an entire MakeUseOf post about a single game. But here I am, dedicating this whole post to tell you about just one game, because it's that good: Quantro for Android. You won't find mention of it on the Quantro page, but it's a Tetris clone. It's not just a dumb clone, though - it's even better than the original. They can't tell you it's Tetris, supposedly because of copyright issues, so here I am to lay down the truth.

Pinball has always been difficult to re-create on a computer. Though there have been some good incarnations, the lack of direct interaction is a sore point for pinball on consoles and PCs. Playing with a keyboard just isn’t the same as the real thing. Tablets, however, can put you much closer to the traditional pinball experience.

There are many Android games that deserve praise, many of which are logic-based puzzle games like Move the Box and Unblock Me, although there are a few action games like Death Worm to seal the deal. I’ve found yet another fantastic logical puzzler that will calmly pick your mind and stump you regularly. It’s called Quell and it’s available on both Android (Free) and iOS ($1.99).

The original Real Racing was a very playable yet basic racing game that got the fundamentals right and earned itself a following among mobile gamers for being the Gran Turismo or Forza of the platform. Real Racing 2 improved on the graphics, gameplay and included content in every way but stuck with the same standalone price point, also earning well-deserved praise.

We talked about Rube Goldberg in a game I reviewed a few days back. Amazing Alex takes off from where we left off in Apparatus. Both involve the basics of physics, both are about building objects from the simplest things around us, both have a goal (a basket here to begin with), but Amazing Alex makes it a tad more fun because it’s all through the antics of a young boy and chain reactions with objects that we see around us every day.

Sometimes, when you're playing a game on your mobile device, you just want instant gratification -- you want to get down to killing time by playing a couple sessions of a game which doesn't require much thought, but is still stimulating to your senses. There are a handful of games which allow you to do this, but none are quite as simple as a game called Extreme Road Trip.

Whenever I think of pinball, I always think of the Space Invaders version of pinball which was installed by default on Windows XP. It was a fun game to play - and definitely more visually appealing than solitaire - and has therefore become a classic in simple computer games. Now that we're overrun with mobile devices, there's a lack of those old classics on these devices.

Drop7 is a Zynga game. Zynga has good antecedents when it comes to online games, so you know that there’s a good chance that the $2.99 you spend on Drop7 won’t be a bad investment for a round of exercise at the brain gym. Drop7 is what you get when you combine the simplicity of Tetris with the brain squashing logic of Sudoku.
