As you progress along with the game, you will face many barriers and you can dodge them by either jumping or sliding down. Make sure to collect as many coins as you can for the high score. I never understood that why this game is so famous that it is downloaded by more than million users.
Anyways, it is a puzzle game in which you have to match the candies with the same color to earn more points. To be honest, it is much more complicated than that. But my guess is you already know about this game more than I do. This is my favorite game of all time. Although I could not score reputation points in this one, still it counts.
Your main objective in this game is to slice all the fruits in ninja style. Quickly perform combos to earn more points. The game feels really easy till 50 points, a bit difficult till , and absolutely impossible after that. But I am sure you can score even higher than that.

While the franchise might not be the most popular thing around at the moment, credit must given where credit is due to this genre-defining game.
The Sonic franchise features some of the most downloaded games in the entire world. Its foray into the endless runner genre was also a success in that regard. Sonic Dash is a surprisingly competent title, mainly due to the fact that the endless runner genre perfectly complements the breakneck speed and playstyle of a Sonic game.
Its massive popularity on iPhone and Android has made it one of the strongest performers in the Sonic franchise — and despite the recent bungled release of Sonic Colors Ultimate , with a sequel to the surprisingly decent movie on the horizon who knows what non-console game heights Sonic might hit next? Speaking of popular franchises delving into the endless runner genre, the Mario series ventured into this genre with Super Mario Run.
While at first appearing somewhat bland, Nintendo ended up impressing gamers with the vast wealth of content in Super Mario Run, turning it into one of the most downloaded mobile games of all time. The endless runner genre is a unique match with Mario's traditional playstyle. The way the various features have been adapted to fit mobile play and the variety of level design in Super Mario Run make it the game that it is.
A list like this can't be made without mentioning the once-raging popularity of Flappy Bird.

Dragon Ball is easily one of the most popular franchises of all time, with its games being fairly successful in their own right. This is especially true for Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle, which has quickly grown through a steady stream of content updates to become one of the most downloaded mobile games in the world.
Dokkan Battle features a unique gameplay system that combines card collecting, puzzles, and board games into a flashy and entertaining package.
Although the game might feel somewhat grindy at times especially if you don't want to spend a fortune it remains a surprisingly polished title. Alright, listen: everyone knows about Among Us. Released to little fanfare in , this social deception game exploded in popularity recently thanks to Twitch streamers.
Frustrating, frantic, and fun, the game puts groups of up to ten players in the roles of adorable space blobs. As the group attempts to complete tasks and repairs around the ship, they are secretly hunted by one or more players posing as an ally.
Figuring out who the imposter is before they can kill everyone and win the game is incredibly enjoyable. The game gets even better and also worse when played with a group of close friends.
