In two years revenues from mobile apps are forecast to reach just under $190 billion dollars. So it’s safe to say that mobile apps are incredibly popular and intensely lucrative for producers. That said, picking a new app to download can be a tedious exploit, there’s just too many. It’s like picking something to watch on Netflix, you’ll never make the right choice. So let us help you. From epic adventures and bingo to zombies and cooking, here are some great apps to help spice up your summer.
01) Oceanhorn
Oceanhorn has been described as the mobile version of The Legend of Zelda encapsulating the famous scenery and vibe of the original game. Your character wakes up one morning to discover that his father has disappeared, and the only thing helping you are two measly clues.
You’ll have to battle through the Unchartered Islands in search of your father confronting monsters, villains, puzzles, and mysteries. At the time of writing, Oceanhorn is free to download for Android and allows users to play the first chapter, with an option to buy the game in order to continue.
Just like The Legend of Zelda, there is a huge world to explore and you won’t be completing Oceanhorn in a couple of days. You’ll be glued to your phone for weeks as you aim to reunite your character with his Father in this magical world.

03) Soccer Physics
Football games don’t tend to transfer well to mobile apps, as the processing power of tablets and phones doesn’t match up to those of the major consoles. Soccer Physics doesn’t make the classic mistake of trying to recreate FIFA, Pro Evo or Football Manager, it just goes for its own unique vibe.
In single-player or two-player mode, you defend and try to score with two balance challenged footballers that react to your every tap. At times it seems like gravity and a host of other forces are against you as you frantically try to get your player to stand up long enough to score a goal.
You don’t even have to be a football fan as the basic premise of this game is playing with characters that don’t conform to the normal laws of physics. Play with a friend and you’ll be guaranteed to howl with laughter.
