Let's be real
-
Free mobile games aren't always
as free as they seem
-
but with a little patience
-
you can totally enjoy some great ones
without spending a penny
-
The trick is knowing
which games actually deliver
-
without pushing pay walls in your face
-
and that's exactly what
I'm here to help with
-
Today, we are breaking down the top 10
best free Android and IOS games
-
of May 2025 that you can genuinely enjoy
without reaching for your wallet
-
So.. grab your phone, get comfy
and let's dive right in
-
[Music]
-
Starting off at number 10,
we have Metalstorm
-
Metalstorm is a refreshing
blast to the past
-
but on your mobile device
-
You play as a fighter pilot caught
in the middle of a heated conflict
-
flying through enemy skies with your
mission to shoot down hostile planes
-
and complete daring missions
-
The controls are surprisingly smooth
for a mobile game
-
letting you maneuver your war plane with
precision while lining up your shots
-
What really sets Metalstorm apart is its
impressive graphics
-
The plane's explosions and terrain details
all look crisp and polished
-
which helps pull you into the action
-
While the gameplay is straightforward,
it's satisfying and addictive
-
with a nice difficulty curve that keeps
you challenged without feeling unfair
-
The variety of planes and upgrades you
unlock along the way
-
adds extra motivation to keep you playing
-
[shots firing]
-
Breaking into number 9, we have
Game of Thrones: Kingsroad
-
"Winter is here" on your phone
-
This is an officially licensed ARPG
-
that plunges you deep into the chaotic
power hungry world of Westeros
-
If you're a Game of Thrones fan, or just
someone who enjoys dark fantasy action
-
Kingsroad might just be one of the best
adaptations of the series to date
-
Set after the death of King Robert
Baratheon
-
The game kicks off in a fractured world
-
where every noble house is clawing for
control of the Iron Throne
-
You step into this political nightmare
-
not as a background observer,
but as an active contender
-
carving your path through a sprawling map
-
filled with enemies, allies,
and deadly White Walkers
-
What instantly grabs your attention
is the visual quality
-
Gameplay-wise it's a mix of real time
action and RPG progression
-
You'll be constantly upgrading your
hero skills,
-
unlocking new gear, and choosing
allies wisely
-
Coming in at number 8,
we have Football Eleven
-
Football fans, this one's for you
-
Football Eleven comes with official
FIF Pro licensing
-
so you can unlock and play with
real world stars from clubs
-
like Barcelona, Liverpool and Real Madrid
-
You create your own club
and build a dream squad
-
through a card based pack system
-
think FIFA Ultimate Team but lighter
-
You'll fight for trophies, upgrade your
lineup, and climb the leaderboards
-
Now, fair warning
-
The graphics and animations aren't the
most cutting-edge
-
and the commentary is a bit flat
-
but the gameplay itself is fun and
rewarding
-
especially if you're into the management
side of football
-
Great for casual players looking for a
realistic football sim
-
without all the clutter
-
Next up at number 7, we have
Horror Tale 3
-
If you're into creepy atmosphere, tense
stealth, and twisted storylines
-
Horror Tale 3 is something you don't
want to miss
-
This game picks up right where the
last chapter left off
-
continuing the terrifying saga of the
mysterious child kidnapper
-
and yes, it gets darker and more intense
-
The story revolves around Sam who is now
trying to uncover even more secrets
-
while surviving the horrors that await in
this eerie small town setting
-
Gameplay-wise, it's mostly
stealth and exploration
-
with a nice mix of interactive elements
-
You'll be unlocking doors, finding hidden
keys, and using tools in clever ways
-
to escape each area
-
The game delivers classic mobile horror
-
with a solid narrative, creepy atmosphere,
and engaging gameplay
-
If you've played the previous chapters,
this one's a must
-
and even if you haven't, it's still a
great entry point to the series
-
Down to number 6, we have Villains
-
Set in a chaotic futuristic prison planet
-
Villains throws you into short adrenaline
packed battle royale matches
-
that last around 4 minutes
-
But trust me, every second is wild
-
The concept here is pretty unique
-
You're not some soldier or survivor
-
You're one of the villains
-
Each character is a criminal with a
backstory, their own attitude
-
and most importantly, unique abilities
that completely change how you
-
approach the battlefield
-
What make Villains stand out even more
is the robot system
-
You can pick different types of robots
to accompany your character into battle
-
and they aren't just cosmetic
-
These robots bring serious fire power
-
whether you're deploying energy shields
with the barrier bots,
-
launching explosives with Howitzer models,
or getting up close with
-
drill-based melee bots
-
there's a lot room for building
your own playstyle
-
Moving onto number 5, we have
Van Life Simulator
-
If you've ever dreamt of packing up your
life, hitting the open road, and living
-
out a cozy van while chasing sunsets

to freedom

This is more than just a driving game
-
It's a full-blown lifestyle simulator
-
that captures the peaceful adventurous
spirit of nomadic living
-

your first beat up van
-
From there, it's all about making it
your own
-
You'll strip it down, rebuild from scratch
and customize everything
-
from the layout and furniture to the paint
job and decorations
-
One of the best parts is exploration
-
The game features a huge open world with
all kinds of locations to discover
-
Mountains, forests, deserts, beaches, and
quirky roadside attractions
-
There's also a progression system tied to
your travel journal
-
Next up at number 4, we have
Horse World Ride
-
This one's a pretty chill horse simulator
-
where you get to care for your own stable
of horses
-
and train them for different riding events
-
You can groom them, feed them, and even
practice show jumping
-
The controls are smooth and the visuals
have that nice countryside vibe
-
that makes the whole experience feel cozy
-
What's cool is that it doesn't just focus
on riding
-
There's a whole stable life built into the
gameplay
-
You'll be brushing manes, cleaning hooves,
and even customizing your stable
-
with new gear and decorations
-
It's got that relaxing pace, but still
gives you goals to work toward
-
especially when you start unlocking new
horses and entering competitions
-
and yeah, if you're into horses or just
want something laid-back and wholesome
-
this one's worth checking out
-
Coming in at number 3, we have
Slap 'em UP!
-
This one's a quirky casual party game that
blends card strategy with chaotic humor
-
and honestly, it's way more addictive than
it has any right to be
-
At it's core, this is about one
simple thing:
-
playing higher cards than your opponent
to win each round
-
but it's not just about numbers and
deck luck
-
This game knows how to keep things spicy
-
The moment you hop into a match, you're
greeted with an upbeat, light-hearted vibe
-
complete with hilarious emotes and
animated stickers
-
that players use to taunt each other
-
It's fast-paced and surprisingly strategic
-
Every round forces you to decide whether
to play it safe
-
or go all in with a powerful card
-
The game is super lightweight
-
It runs smoothly on pretty much any phone
and doesn't demand long play sessions
-
Next up at number 2, we have Paint Brawl
-
This one brings a super fun twist to
multiplayer combat
-
by replacing bullets with
you guessed it, paint
-
It's all about 4v4 paintball battles where
the goal isn't just to take down opponents
-
but to cover more of the map in your
team's color than the other side
-
It's like a turf war with style
-
and it's surprisingly strategic once you
get into it
-
Matches start fast
-
You're dropped in with 3 other players
and from the jump
-
it's chaos in the best way possible
-
You'll be sliding, jumping, and spraying
paint across tight maps
-
designed for fast-paced action
-
but don't let the colorful visuals
fool you
-
This game rewards smart plays
-
Choosing the right time to swap weapons or
push forward can be the difference
-
between victory and defeat
-
And finally at number 1, we have Pandoland
-
Now this one's an RPG that really leans
into adventure and exploration
-
offering a full-on seafaring journey
-
packed with treasures, monsters
and quirky characters
-
Developed in collaboration with Game Freak
-
Pandoland blends classic RPG mechanics
with a modern gacha system
-
giving you hundreds of unique adventurers
to recruit
-
The game is split into two core
experiences
-
On one side, there's exploration
-
sailing your ship across an evolving map
-
discovering hidden islands, rare loot, and
new characters
-
On the other side, there's combat
-
sending your squad into turn-based battles
where strategy and skill upgrades
-
make all the difference
-
The boss fights especially deserve a
shoutout
-
They're challenging and each one feels
like a mini event
-
And there you have it
