Discover The Best Anime Games On Switch And Mobile

Picking out the best anime games on Switch and mobile games is like trying to pick out the best anime series itself. It’s a tough job, with opinions differing within the community. Still, we’re big anime fans here at Pocket Tactics, and unsurprisingly, we’re big gaming fans too, so we think we’re well-placed to try and decide once and for all. So, if you want to rate our picks, all you have to do is keep scrolling.

Like the best Disney games, the choices on this list have taken classic animations and adapted them perfectly in the videogame medium. Well, most of them, anyway – some merely use the distinctive anime art style. We’ve got a few gacha games in here, but overall we’ve tried to offer a variety. All things considered, many of these are among the best mobile games overall.

Here are thebest anime games:

Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop

The latest installment in the long-running Puyo Puyo series is one of the best Apple Arcade games. If you’ve never played a game in the series before, it’s all about stacking up different colored Puyos, which disappear when you match four or more of the same type together. You play against a range of computer foes (or your friends) and you have to aim to get combo chains (where four disappear, then those above them fall down and make another set of four). Doing this will send clear “garbage” Puyos and put them at a higher risk of hitting the top of the screen.

It’s really fun, but where’s the anime angle? Well, the game features a story mode (which will be delightful news to older Puyo fans), and all the characters are rendered in a cute, chibi anime style. They’re all very lovable, and there are a lot of good vibes here. Puyo gameplay alone would make it one of the best mobile puzzle games, but the characters and story just push it even further and add an extra layer of appeal for anime fans.
