All the mobile games we’ve reviewed in 2025
Every year, we dive into a sea of mobile game releases, meticulously narrowing down the standout gems for you to enjoy. It’s no small feat. With an overwhelming number of titles flooding app stores monthly, our editorial team carefully curates a shortlist of the most promising entries. Time is limited, and with tens of thousands of releases annually, only a select few make it to our review stage. That’s why we’ve created this compilation—an easy way for you to browse the highest-rated mobile games of 2025, according to our scoring system.
Steel Media’s team—including contributors from Pocket Gamer, Pocket Gamer France, 148Apps, App Spy, and others—has been immersed in the mobile gaming world for over a decade and a half. If we combined our experience, it would total over fifty years of mobile game coverage. This legacy has honed our instincts when selecting titles worthy of in-depth reviews. Below, you’ll find our 2025 selections, organized first by review score, then alphabetically. Explore the list and decide which titles stand out as your personal favorites!
