What would you guys say are the best games available for the Nook?
I too am looking for a consolidated list of the best games.
Specifically, let's try and make this thread a list of the games that are stable on the NC, and also the specific versions of said games.
Let's post the method to legally acquire these games and what is needed to get the best version running on the NC, and/or the tricks necessary to have the best experience.
Of course Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons.
Also emulators + games (Snes,Genesis,etc)
All work great no tweaking..
Pocket Legends owns me right now
They say its WoW in your pocket, works great on NC
You can download for free on the pocketlegends.com android forum

I've been playing Mini Squadrons and Grave Defense.
Bowquest
Doodle Jump
Gun Bros Beta
Hungry Shark
Meteor Blitz
Reckless Racing
Squibble
Zenonia
Zombie Defense
...all working great for me.
One thing to note: I have squareparts added.
My list(I only add games that work great):
4 Player reactor
Angry Birds
Astro
Basketball Shot
Bonsai Blast
Bow Man
Buka HD
Can Knockdown
Crazy God
Crush the Castle
Dungeon Hunter
eagle Nest
Fast and Furious: Adrenalin 3D
FireFox
GuitarHero 5
Gun Bros
Heavy Gunner
Homerun Battle 3D
Krazy Kart Racing
MiniGore (THE FUNEST GAME OF ALLL TIME)
NinJump
My Paper Plane
Penguin Golf
PSX4Droid
Rope Cut
Speed Forge 3D
Tank Hero
Totem HD
Transformers G1
PLants VS Zombies
These all look great. It seems like games that need to be rendered in real time(aka 3D games) will perform the best. The second will be games that use vectors, such as angry birds.

Pocket legends
angry birds season

For the Gameloft games, which method are people using to download?
On their website, you have to select a phone model and then enter a phone number.
Is there a best device model to choose? I was thinking of selecting the Galaxy Tab, and then sending the download link to my Droid. Then I was thinking, would it be better to select the Droid itself?
I was thinking it would be best to select a device that has the same or similar resolution as the NC, but... the Galaxy Tab has a better GPU, a PowerVR SGX540, compared to the NC's GPU (same as the Moto Droid and other TI OMAP devices: PowerVR SGX530)... so, not really sure. Trial and error usually doesn't lead to too many problems, but I've never bought any Gameloft games, no idea how it works in terms of getting different app versions, specifically for activiation or anything (if there is any activation).
edit:
And for games that don't show up in the market, what's a good legal method of getting these games? Just download on another Android device and load that apk onto the NC?
On my NC, I have the latest Market version found in another thread, but there are still a ton of apps that are not showing up when I perform a search. It's not an issue of only paid apps not showing up, even Firefox is absent on my NC's market.
Same as other people, but poolbreak pro is also good.
Robo Defense works, but requires Square Parts.
Disco, where'd you find Plants vs Zombies?

Here's instructions on what to do with it:

Ok, yea I'm using that. I thought it was something else because another person said about square parts earlier.
I haven't played Pocket Legends yet but I plan on changing that in the next few minutes!
All of the rest have worked fine for me. I spend most of my time playing with Nesdroid, Dungeon Hunter, and Angry Birds.
Also, Game Dev Story works great.

Would also love to know the answer to this question. I have both hero of sparta and dungeon hunter for my og droid but when i try and load them it says something to the effect of incompatible device.
If u could get spiderman total mayhem fro gameloft to DL the extra data I would say that is hands down the best playing/looking mobile game ever. I love it on my droid

So I just checked out Pocket Legends while I was on my lunch break. Thankfully I pretty much get to make my own schedule because my usual one hour break turned into about a two and half hour one. Thank you, thank you, thank you bigted41 for the suggestion!
Also, if you're in the market for a good, old school 8-bit RPG - Gurk runs pretty well.
Hey guys, is there a simple hack and slash rpg game for android on the market ... something like diablo ... i know there is dungeon hunter 1 and 2 from gameloft but they're not on the market and i don't want to have to deal with the cow dung of a website they use to sell their games
cheers
Check out Legends Arcana (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.littlekillerz.legendsarcana) - it's fun and offers some good replay value
You gotta try Dweller. There's simply nothing like it on the market. Also it's free.

Great Little War Game (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rubicon.dev.glwg) and Great Big War Game (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rubicon.dev.gbwg) are both very well done and fun RTS games. Another game I would recommend is Pirates! Showdown (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flashpointgames.piratesshowdown), it's combat is somewhat similar to that of Age of Empires.

Thanks will check em out
Very grateful to you for having taken time to post em - i expected the thread to die out without much attention
leap before you think
Android RTS
Ok. the best one is Art of war 2 but it is short,then you have Rusted Warfare which is in alpha stage and you have Z origins.You can always buy N64oid from the Slideme Market and play Starcraft but like the previously mentioned games there is a lot to be desired.It drives me nuts that no company has bothered to make a actually good RTS game for Android(I'm looking at you Warfare Incorparated).God I hope one comes along soon!!!!
And this the wrong section.

Border Wars is also a fun game!
good strategy games

Age of strategy dude. You wouldn't believe how many similarities it has with age of empires. The first is the name. The only diffrence is that age of strategy is a turn based game. Still a good game though!!!
Crystal Legends RTS
Hi All,
anyone suggest me game similar to Blood and glory for Android,
I have played below games:
1. Blood and Glory
2. Blood and Glory 2 Legend
3. Monster Blade (New one)
All these games are similar, not much controls, just slash up, down, right, left and dodge and attack,
Looking for same kind of more games for Android.
Please Suggest,
also games similar to Fruit ninja, i mean not with the same concept but the controls to play the games are similar..
just slash.
Thanks.
these are 1s ive played on my note 3, aside from the 1s u listed
try these ones!
1. Death Dome
a post mutant apocalypse in a cellshaded environment other then cellshading its a great s&s to add to ur device
2. Avengers Initiative
u are the Hulk, Hulk smashing ur way thru opponents and the game
(may have to look around for this 1 i can no longer find it on GP)
3. Dragon Slayer
just like Monster Blade but ur a mage/wizard blasting ur way thru dragons and monsters
4. Sword Goddess
this is byfar the best s&s it features a freeroam world with topline grafx but its definitely not 1 of the easiests.
(everything is in Jp, iOS has only Eng ver available via markets, but u can dig up patches for AO)
5. Horn
it has the best grafx and 1 of the best stories it tends to, like all s&s, gets repetitive.
(its supposedly Tegra 3&up only, but u can find nonTegra out there somewhere)
6. Dark Meadows
from the creators of Horn, this game is for all devices and free on GP full in depth story with full voice acting
(mystery, horror game for the swipe and slice genre)
I Gladiator is what you are looking for !!!!! It is awesome and you can freely move too
Sorry if this is the wrong place for this, or even if anyone is still here, but why doesnt marvel contest of champions or angry birds transformers work on my kids GT-P7510? From nz. Thanks in advance if anyone can shed some light, or direct me in the right place. Cher.
What rom? When my tab was still in honeycomb i cant play games too.
Depends what games you're trying to play. The Tegra 2's been largely discontinued in terms of support as game makers move towards supporting newer chipsets and GPUs. It's possible that newer games simply cannot support the hardware.
Does the game just crash as soon as you start it?
