Social isolation gives us a lot of free time. Despite the fact that some use it to be productive, as it happens with virtual courses, it is also important to conserve space for leisure. This can be satiated in different ways: watching movies, reading books, and even exercising.
However, there are also other options to have fun. For example, according to the Infobae media, the World Health Organization recommended trying different video games to “take care of mental health”, since it is one of the most popular entertainment media during this time.
Now, the fact that you do not have consoles or a powerful computer does not mean that you cannot enjoy some free titles for smartphones. There are games for all tastes and types of players, so we suggest that you join us to know this list for Android users.
1. Mario Kart Tour
We all know Mario Kart … but not all people knew that there is a special version for mobile. According to the media La Vanguardia, this adaptation of the Nintendo consoles has a substantial difference: it is played vertically, in addition to the fact that there is no need to accelerate since it is done automatically.
In this way, this title is ideal to play a fun game with friends, where they must see who will reach the finish line first, using different powers to take advantage or obstruct your opponents.
2. Trivia Crack
