In the first episode in our series, we&#8217;ll go through <strong>the best Android games to play with friends<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>You may often here that mobile phones isolate us from society, but is that really true when you consider all the multiplayer mobile games on offer? Playing with friends isn&#8217;t only for console\u00a0or PC games; mobile operating systems like Android\u00a0offer an almost infinite number of <strong>multiplayer games, both online and offline, <\/strong><strong>and there&#8217;s no genre exempt from the lure of multiplayer games. <\/strong><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Warlings Battle Worms: recalling the famous Worms<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin-left: 3px;margin-right: 3px\" title=\"Warlings: Battle worms\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-images.sftcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/04\/Warlings-Battle-Worms.png\" alt=\"Warlings: Battle worms\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/>If you were born before the 90s, you&#8217;re likely to remember Worms and how much fun you had plaing it.You control an <strong>army of worms<\/strong> whose aim is to destroy the opponent&#8217;s army, which is controlled by\u00a0a friend. Android couldn&#8217;t resist\u00a0getting in on the act with these battle-hardened insects and, although there are various versions of this game on Google Play, you have to pay for them.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, we&#8217;re recommending <strong>Warlings: Battle Worms<\/strong>, a Worms clone with an interface and design that the classic series would be proud of, with the added advantage of being <strong>free<\/strong>. And, like the original Worms, you can play in real time with friends, this time taking advantage of the bluetooth connection with your Android\u00a0phone, letting each user can play from their own device.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"Download Warlings Battle Worms\" href=\"http:\/\/warlings-battle-worms.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download Warlings: Battle Worms<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Warlings: Battle Worms\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-images.sftcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/04\/Warlings-Battle-Worms-568x319.jpg\" alt=\"Warlings: Battle Worms\" width=\"568\" height=\"319\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Guess the Song: Who knows more about music?<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin-left: 3px;margin-right: 3px\" title=\"Guess the Song\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-images.sftcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/04\/Guess-The-Song.png\" alt=\"Guess the Song\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/><strong>Music <\/strong>is a recurring theme in discussions between friends. With <strong>Guess the Song,<\/strong> you can take it a step further when you&#8217;re in the company of fellow music lovers, with a bit of help from the power of your Android.<\/p>\n<p>In this musical trivia quiz game, you compete against a friend to <strong>guess, as quickly as you can, the song<\/strong>, just from the few notes played by the game. Unlike other similar games, such as SongPop, here you play simultaneously, taking advantage of the verticality of the screen of your smartphone or tablet so that everyone can play at one end.<\/p>\n<p>Because of its simultaneous gameplay, Guess the Song is the perfect entertainment for an <strong>evening with friends<\/strong>, where you can substitute a classic (and often expensive) board game for something you&#8217;re always carrying.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"Download Guess the Song\" href=\"http:\/\/guess-the-song.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download Guess the Song<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Guess the Song\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-images.sftcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/04\/Guess-The-Song-1-268x476.png\" alt=\"Guess the Song\" width=\"268\" height=\"476\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-images.sftcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/04\/Guess-the-Song-2-268x476.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Aworded: improve your vocabulary and have fun<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin-left: 3px;margin-right: 3px\" title=\"Aworded\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-images.sftcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/04\/Aworded.png\" alt=\"Aworded\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/><strong>Aworded<\/strong> is the digital version of the famous game\u00a0<strong>Scrabble<\/strong>.
