London Trip - What am I Playing? (Mobile Andoid Edition)

So this week im on a business trip to London and will be separated from my beloved PC gaming! Rather than take a break from doing articles I thought I would take my gaming on the road with me and review a number of mobile titles. The plan is to attempt 3 long reviews and one round up of the others that im enjoying on my trip. All games will be played on my Samsung A70 which has enough horsepower to run even the most demanding games on its 6.7 inch Super AMOLED display.

So here are the games installed on my phone, a few of which I will review this week depending on my playtime with the title. Some I have played a lot of before on other trips so have a good idea as to their strengths and weaknesses. I think the entire list is also available on PC (Apart from Elder Scrolls: Blades) so it is still relevant to the platform I play the most. I am interested to see how ROME: Total War plays on a mobile device. Playing this game on mobile seems almost impossible to imagine 10 years ago. For me the real challenge will be how effective it is to control my units on the battlefield or whether this will turn out to be a frustrating experience. If you have played any of these do let me know in the comments below!
