The best free iPhone mobile games, ranked

Free mobile games have come a long way and their focus has shifted from simple ad-based revenue systems to complicated gacha rollercoasters that try to take every penny without consideration for your poor wallet.

It’s through that seemingly endless stream of pay-to-win and freemium games that Apple makes its 30% from every transaction.
However, fortunately, not all games rely on heavy transactions to make a profit while actually delivering quality content. This list features a lineup of titles you can play on your iPhone without having to worry about missing out on any key moments or having to spend your hard-earned cash (or ask your parents for some pocket change).
