Price: Free with in-app purchases

Any anime fan knows who Goku and Vegeta are, so game developers at BANDAI NAMCO released numerous Dragon Ball games to preserve their epic battles on console and mobile. For Android and iOS, Dragon Ball Legends features the vibe of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi games combined with sharper graphics and mobile gameplay. You get to slide and swipe to control your fighter and pick attacks by tapping on the cards on your screen. Some of the game’s best features include creating your own party of different Dragon Ball fighters, and a roster that includes characters from the OG Dragon Ball series up to Dragon Ball Super.

Available on Android  and iOS.

Remember back in high school when you mimicked Naruto’s Shadow Clone Jutsu? Well, Naruto and Hinata have a kid now named Boruto and they're all featured in this amazing gaming app. The game’s story is based on Naruto: Shippuden and Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. Its gameplay and controls resemble the Naruto Shippuden games on PSP—with the virtual joystick on the left of the screen and the attack controls on the right. Plus, this is a gacha game which means you get to summon characters a la Genshin Impact.

MU Online was one of the hottest massively multiplayer online role-playing games during the mid-2000s, so it's not surprising that its successor, MU Origin 2, is popular as well. The app features the same flashy graphics and SFX of the OG game with tons of regularly updated contents and events. It also has an Auto Attack feature which lets you multitask while playing at the same time. Create a party with your BFFs and get ready for hours and hours of level grinding and equipment hunting in the mystical dungeons and altars of the MU Continent.

Even if we realized the lingering mystery behind their powers of making grass explode just by posing, the Power Rangers are still considered one of the best superhero groups. Power Rangers: Legacy Wars is perfect gaming app for old and new generations of Power Rangers fans. It’s a slide-and-tap player-versus-player game that features rangers from Mighty Morphin up to Beast Morphers against the goons of Rita Repulsa and even other rangers. The game also had a recent team up with the Street Fighter franchise to launch crossover characters Ryu Ranger and Chun-Li Ranger. It’s morphin' time!

Price: Free with in-app purchases

Reminiscing about your childhood wouldn’t be complete without the era of MMORPGs—for many of us adult gamers, Ragnarok paved the way. And now, its addicting and fun gameplay can be played on mobile with Ragnarok M: Eternal Love. Since its 2018 release, the game has been one of the top grossing apps in the country. Choose whether you want to become a Thief, a Mage, a Swordsman, a Priest, a Merchant, or an Archer. Level up your character to acquire a higher rank of your chosen class and duke it out against the strongest bosses and characters in the game. Remember to join a party and enable auto-attack to make your leveling much easier. Quick reminder though, you cannot trade items with other players in this game. You can only exchange your items with non-playable characters and buy items that are being sold by other players via the Exchange merchant. Oh, and the Ninja class is expected to be released in the SEA server late February. Ready your shurikens!

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links

Price: Free with in-app purchases

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links is basically the mobile version of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tag Force games. Same mechanics, same features (with additional ones), but with a bigger roster of duelists and cards. At first, you get to use Yugi and his deck. But as you progress in the game, you will unlock other duelists, such as Jaden, Yusei and Yuma, and build your own deck. The game requires huge storage space so you might have to clear your phone before downloading. The app can be laggy if your phone has a low RAM capacity, but when you edit the settings for smoother experience, you’ll be good.

Available on AndroidiOS, and Steam.

You need to feed, wash, and clean after it just like any other pet so that it will evolve into an adult. You can play mini games and puzzles with your Tamagotchi to strengthen your bond and have it evolve faster. Pro tip: Keep watching those ads for free gifts and items.

Remember those times when Facebook was simpler (read: way less toxic)? If you do, then you definitely remember Dragon City as one of the earliest-slash-addictive Facebook games— and now it has a gaming app. Collect and breed unique species of dragons while planting crops and building habitats on your floating island. There are over 1,000 amazing dragons for you to acquire and dress up with kawaii Dragon Skins.

Grand Theft Auto Vice City

Price: U.S. $4.99 (roughly P240)

Exploring an open-world game has never been more fun until GTA: Vice City reached our PCs in the 2000s. Its app of the same name is still about Tommy Vercetti and his adventures in Vice City in the 1980s. Accomplish the missions to progress the story or roam the city for countless hours doing whatever you want. Real GTA fans remember that you could get busted by the police if they catch you, or get wasted (a.k.a. die) if you get in an accident—but hey, those fans also know that those only make the game more fun, right? Welcome back to Vice City, kingpin.

Available on AndroidiOS, and Steam.
