The graphics are generally quite decent and the controls are quite good as well. Although, EA sports games have quite some complex freemium elements. This, although, is a regular dilemma for many players and it even makes it more difficult to recommend EA in general.

Nintendo is quite a simple recommendation for many free Android games. They have games in multiple genres and the majority of them reminisce at the nostalgia factor. Some Nintendo games contain Mario Kart Tour, Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, Draglia Lost, Fire Emblem: Heroes. If you like puzzlers there is also a Dr. Mario World game. Every game is purely done with decent gameplay as well as colourful graphics. Some such as Mario Kart Tour is somewhat scrappy around the edges with their free-to-play components, however, otherwise, Nintendo performs a decent job of providing light experiences. We quite completely recommend Fire Emblem Heroes to all the strategy RPG fans. Behind Call of Duty: Mobile, Mario Kart Tour has the second largest mobile launch of all time.
