Critical Strike Portable

Free, Google Play
As a gaming platform, Android is iOS’s slightly annoying little brother. Critical Strike Portable shares similarities with Valve's Counter Strike (even the name isn't far off) but that's no bad thing. Co-op multiplayer? Check. Zombies? Check. Oh, and it’s free. What else could you possibly need?

Android owners, rejoice! The popular news reader apps has finally made its way to your hands(et). Flipboard – a “social news magazine" as the developer describes it – lets you customise its feed to match your interests. As with iOS, it’s free, but that extra screen real estate on your Android phone helps it look extra special.

Final Fantasy III

$16.99, Google Play
The third edition of the classic role-playing saga is now available for Android users, though it comes with a fairly hefty price tag. Still, don't let that put you off: this is one of the best titles in the franchise, and the graphics and touch controls are superb on Android devices.
