Paste Magazine's the 50 Best Mobile Games of the 2010s

"Mobile games weren't born this decade, but this was still the mobile decade. The genre came into its own over the last ten years, both creatively and commercially, with the walls between mobile games and the traditional gaming market collapsing as time wore on. As console games became more and more beholden to digital distribution, and smartphones became both omnipresent and more powerful, it became harder to draw a distinction between the two. Sometimes that could result in creative dead ends—early this decade some designers spent too much time showing what mobile games could do, rather than exploring and building on what they should do. The best mobile games combine the pick-up-and-play ease of smartphones with elegant design and the kind of magnetic gameplay loop that keeps you enthralled far longer than you ever expected."
