3. Angry Birds Star Wars (Free)
Yes, it's one of the most popular mobile franchises of all time, but there is a reason the hyper-addictive Angry Birds has left it's distinctive mark on the mobile world. Angry Birds Star Wars is a noble addition to the much beloved series.

5. Canabalt HD ($2.99)
This deceptively simple endless runner lets you feel like an action star running across roof tops, through buildings and along cranes. Until, of course, you slide headlong into a glass pane.
Simple but addictive, Canabalt is available in the Google Play store.
