Best Netflix mobile game to start with
Now that you know how to download and install Netflix’s mobile games, it’s time to pick the best titles to play. We have put together a list of recommended games to get you started.
Asphalt Xtreme
Asphalt Xtreme and Teeter (Up) were neck-to-neck as the two most downloaded games in February 2022. These two titles still hold up well today, making either a good choice as your first download. But the Asphalt Xtreme edges out on top for our primary recommendation, thanks to impressive graphics and tight racing controls, with plenty of customization to your wheels. It’s a great title to see what Netflix Games is all about.
Into the Dead 2: Unleashed
The much awaited Into the Dead 2: Unleashed is a top recommendation, especially if you are looking for a zombie shooter. The action-packed run-and-gun gameplay will definitely keep you on your toes. History events and daily challenges also add a layer to any zombie hoarding session, ensuring the game doesn’t get old. We recommend this title to experienced mobile gamers looking for a traditional shooting game experience.
This is a true story
If you are more into casual games, we recommend This is a True Story. It is a story-based puzzle game featuring beautiful hand-painted landscapes that tell an original story based on actual events and interviews. The controls are intuitive, so you can focus more on the experience and the story – perfect for a veteran Netflix binger.
Investing in Netflix games
It may be a long way to go for Netflix to compete with the big games, but it seems that the company is already taking the right steps to ensure trust in its service. Even if you’re not currently an Android gamer, you can find Netflix’s selection of mobile games an excellent place to get started. So go ahead and load your Netflix app to see what the company has to offer; you may be surprised by its game library.
