10 Best Brain Games for Android
4 Pics 1 Word
This is a pretty easy game to play, in the beginning, that is. You will be presented with 4 pictures and a collection of letters. You must then figure out what the pictures have in common, using the given words. It starts off easy, but as you progress, the figuring out gets harder.

2048
This is a very addictive and fun numbers game that is once again a brain puzzler. You will be given a bunch of numbers, which you have to join to get the end result as the 2048 tile. In the mobile version, you can choose between the 4×4, 5×5, 6×6, and even the 8×8 boards. The bigger the board, the tougher the challenge.
All you have to do is move the number tiles in any way possible, and join them with the same number to form a larger number. So, when you join 2 and 2 it becomes 4 and then 8 and so on, till you get to 2048. But you have to play strategically, which is what makes this game challenging.
