The Best Social Games for Mobile In 2021

For many of us, technology is a great place to be social and while for the most part that comes from the likes of Instagram and Facebook, many mobile games have integrated interactive elements, and in 2021 social gaming is bigger than ever. But what are the best social games to play, and what are the apps you should be downloading to your device?

Words with Friends 2

For those who enjoy Scrabble and love a bit of wordplay, then Words with Friends 2 is just about the best word game on the market. It plays in the same way as Scrabble with players going head to head to spell out games on a board, with points earned for every letter laid on the board.

You can play against the computer, random people, or a friend, with a chat function built into the game so you can enjoy a conversation with players as you play. You don’t have to complete games in one session, making it an ideal game for on-the-go, allowing you to dip in and out while you have a spare moment.

Moon Bingo

If you enjoy playing games like bingo for mobile then Moon Bingo is a great app to download as not only are there a range of different bingo games from 90-ball bingo to slingo bingo, it’s also a very social experience. Every bingo room has a chat room built-in, allowing players to chat during play as well as enjoy chat games during games. The rooms are monitored by chat hosts too, holding court and entertaining the crowd, making it a safe and fun environment to play along to.

There are games to play every minute of every day almost, and they only last a few minutes, perfect to have on the go and even a quick game in front of the TV.

Uno nights are back, and you don’t even have to be in the same room!

The game has transitioned seamlessly into the smartphone and it’s one that’s perfect for playing with friends, colleagues, and family members.
