Indie Mobile Games for Android and iOS

The app stores bury small developers under ads for giant franchises. This page ranks mobile games from independent developers by player votes, with direct Google Play and App Store links.

Indie mobile games are Android and iOS games from independent developers and small studios. Many are premium (pay once) or use fair free-to-play models, which is why players look for them outside store charts dominated by large publishers.

How to spot a good indie mobile game

  • Business model. Premium games cost once; fair free-to-play games sell cosmetics or an ad-free upgrade. Read the in-app purchase list before installing.
  • Permissions and data safety. A puzzle game has no reason to read your contacts. Both stores show what data an app collects.
  • Offline play and controllers. Useful for travel; many indie games support both, and the store page usually says so.
  • Recent updates. New Android and iOS versions break old apps. A game updated in the last year is a safer install.
  • Official links only. Install from Google Play or the App Store through the links on the game page, never from unofficial APK mirrors.

Engines behind indie mobile games

Unity is the most common choice for mobile indies thanks to mature Android and iOS export and ad and purchase integrations; see the Unity games page. Godot and GameMaker are popular for lightweight 2D mobile games, and Defold and Cocos Creator are built specifically for small, fast mobile builds.

For mobile developers: getting found outside the store charts

Store algorithms reward installs you already have, which is hard for a new indie game. A Mutop100 listing gives your game a page that ranks for its own name, links straight to Google Play and the App Store, and puts it on this mobile page where players come looking for indie games specifically.

Publishing costs to plan for: Google Play charges a one-time developer registration fee and asks new personal accounts to run a closed test with real testers before production release, and Apple's Developer Program is an annual membership. A listing in the Playtest stage is a practical way to recruit those first testers.

List your mobile game free and add your Google Play and App Store links.

Мобильные инди-игры: частые вопросы

Are the mobile games on this page free?

Some are free or free-to-play, others are premium. Each listing shows its price model (Free, Free-to-Play, Paid, Pay What You Want or Free Demo + Paid) so you know before you open the store.

Does Mutop100 host APK files?

No. We only link to official store pages and developer websites. Never install games from unofficial APK mirrors.

Can I list an iOS-only or Android-only game?

Yes. Select the platforms your game supports and add the matching store link; one store is enough.
