Smartphone gaming has risen in popularity. Now you can play your favorite games, no matter where you are, unless you lose your wi-fi connection, right? Fortunately, there are lots of popular games which you can play without the internet.
Slots
If you love nothing more than playing slot games from your mobile phone, there are apps and casino sites that allow you to do this from your smartphone, without the need for an internet connection. You can read slot game reviews on We Rate Slots to find some of the best games and see if any are available offline. If your preferred slots aren’t compatible with offline gaming, checking the app store will usually produce results for these or similar games.
Although you still get the excitement of playing your favorite slots games, those played without an internet connection are aimed at players seeking entertainment rather than the chance to win cash.
Texas Hold ‘em Poker
For gamers who love online casinos, with the Texas Hold ‘em poker app, you can practice and improve your game playing skills. So the next time you visit a casino online or off, you could have a better chance of winning. The app is free to use, with in-app purchase options for when you’re back online and is a fun way to spend your time when on the move.
Minecraft
The Minecraft smartphone version is perfect for those who are fans of the game but have little time to spend playing at home. The app is cheap and, like most gaming apps, has the option to make purchases. When playing offline, you can build with what you have and then make purchases when you have a connection.
Plants Vs Zombies 2
For gamers familiar with the original Plant Vs Zombies game, this freemium game isn’t too different. So, if you love the game and want something you can play on your smartphone when you’re out of data or away from a wi-fi connection, this could be a good option. For anyone who is unfamiliar with the concept of the game, the aim is to grow plants as a strategic defense against zombies trying to enter your home.
25-in-1 Casino
If you want the chance to play all your favorite casino games without an internet connection, this is the perfect app for you. Some of the games include Jokers Wild Video Poker, Tens or Better Video Poker, Blackjack, Baccarat, and 7 Slot Machines. The app and the games are free to play and are great for experienced players who love to keep their mind occupied, or new players who want to learn and improve. Although this can be played offline, you will need a connection when allowing updates, or making in-app purchases.
Being able to play your favorite smartphone games with wi-fi, expands on the freedom of these games. If you’re traveling, you may not always have a connection, so it’s great that so many developers allow gamers to play offline.
