Paid Games

Buying a game on Android means you own a file, not a subscription. No energy timers, no in-game store, no account required - and no excuse not to play offline on a plane. That is worth a lot more than most people expect.

The list below is every paid title we track, sorted by rating volume. The reviews cover the things that decide whether a paid download was worth the money: how long it is, whether it still runs on a current Android version, and whether the developer still patches it.

A warning about pricing: Google Play adjusts sale prices constantly, so a price you see today may be higher tomorrow. The review page always shows the price as it stood when we last rebuilt the site.

There are 220 titles on this list. Every card shows the Play Store score and the number of ratings behind it, and every card links to a full review.

At the top of the list right now is Minecraft: Dream it, Build it! by Mojang, rated 4.3 out of 5 from 5,865,209 ratings. Our full write-up covers what it does well, what it does not, and whether the free tier is actually free.
