If you’re a passenger on a long journey then you will probably want to plan some activities for the trip. If you’re traveling between the American States or European countries then the trip may be thousands of miles, and this can be a long time to sit on a bus, train, or in the back of a car. Of course, there are many activities we can enjoy when traveling.
If you don’t want to worry about your phone battery then you can read a book, write in a journal, or listen to music on another device. If you’re with other people then there are more games and activities you can enjoy, too. If you want to pass the time with an engaging activity and a world of potential games, though, your mobile phone is full of options. The choice of game will depend on things like whether you have an internet connection.
Some games need an internet connection, and there are so many different games out there that enable gamers to do anything from virtually managing fictional sports teams, and competing against their friends, to playing casino live. Online games like live slots, poker, or blackjack require a good internet connection. However, there are plenty of other games where you do not need to be connected to the internet. It means you can play on a plane, as long as you turn on the Flight Mode.
These vary from word games to a variety of other single-player games. Let’s look at some of the options.
Fortnite
Fortnite is the online battle royale game that took the world by storm when it was released and has since expanded to be playable on a variety of devices. If you have an Android phone you can directly download the app, and many other devices can allow you to play via Xbox Cloud Gaming.
One of the things people love about Fortnite is the fact that you can play through rounds of the game relatively quickly. Even if you’re on a short trip you can potentially play. The game is also constantly evolving with changes to its map and new features being added.
New York Times Crossword
We had to include a game on our list that is playable while you are offline, and New York Times Crossword is an example of that. Even if you think you won’t have any internet access while you are on the road, or if you know you won’t because you’ll be on a plane, you will still have something to keep you amused.
The app allows you to play crossword games from the archive, and new puzzles are released daily, too. Word games can be a workout for your brain as well as a way to pass the time while you wait to reach your destination.
Plague, Inc.
The premise of this game is certainly dark. You are the creator of a disease with the goal of destroying the earth. The game is played in good humor, of course. It can actually be a lot of fun and test your skills in planning and strategy, plus it has some really interesting features. You have to choose what type of disease you will play as and how it will spread (microbe, bacteria, etc.), and then you have to choose where it will start.
Your goal is then to evolve the disease so that it spreads through the whole world. Plague, Inc. is the kind of game that can be played through many different times because it has different modes and you can play again with a different strategy. You can also change the difficulty level.
One of the reasons why this is popular for those who are on their travels is that it can be played offline, too. This means you don’t have to worry even if you don’t have an internet connection, you can still play the full version of the game.
Candy Crush Saga
Don’t knock it until you have tried it. There are a lot of people who assume this game is just for women over a certain age, but that is not true at all. Candy Crush Saga is not the most challenging game you’ll ever come across, but there is something satisfying about working out how to complete the patterns and get through the rounds. The game is free to download and there is a reason why it is so popular. It is worth trying out to see if this is an option for entertainment while you are on your trip.
To Sum Up
Of course, we all enjoy slightly different games, but whether you are into casino games, word games, or shooter games, you have options to play on mobile. Make sure you have a way to charge your battery up for the long trip ahead and download some apps to keep you amused for the long drive, train journey, or even the flight ahead.
