Let’s dive into them:
1. Candy Crush Saga
Among puzzle games, Candy Crush Saga stands out as a timeless classic. Since its launch in 2012 by King, it has maintained incredible popularity. The game involves matching various types of candies to progress through levels, requiring both intelligence and strategic planning.
💡 Experience Tip: I personally found that the game gets significantly more challenging after level 1000, and using boosters at the right time becomes crucial.
📊 As of the latest data, Candy Crush has been downloaded over 3 billion times, reflecting its global appeal. It’s ideal for those who enjoy mentally stimulating, logic-based challenges.

2. 8 Ball Pool
If you’re a fan of pool or cue sports, 8 Ball Pool by Miniclip delivers an immersive experience. Featuring realistic 3D graphics and intuitive gameplay, this online multiplayer game allows you to compete against players worldwide in competitive pool matches.
🎮 One great thing I noticed while playing: the more you win, the better the cues and table customizations you unlock, which keeps the motivation high.
Since its release in 2013, the game has surpassed 1 billion downloads globally, proving its lasting impact. It remains popular not just in Bangladesh, but across North America, Europe, and Asia.

3. eFootball (formerly PES Mobile)
For football lovers, eFootball by Konami is a top-tier mobile option. Launched in 2019 and expanded to Google Play Store in 2022, this game allows users to build dream teams featuring iconic players like Messi, Ronaldo, and Neymar.
⚽ First-hand Insight: Creating a balanced team between speed and defense is essential to win ranked matches. I’ve learned this the hard way!
The real-time multiplayer mode adds to the thrill, letting you compete with gamers from around the globe. The game has crossed 1 billion downloads and is a favorite in esports communities.

4. PUBG Mobile (PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds)
One of the most iconic battle royale games in mobile history, PUBG Mobile was launched in 2018 by Level Infinite. The concept is simple yet gripping—100 players land on a massive map, scavenge for weapons and supplies, and fight until one remains.
🧠 Pro Tip from my gameplay: Knowing the map well gives you a huge advantage. Areas like Pochinki or Sosnovka are riskier but often worth it.
Despite facing temporary bans in certain countries due to its addictive nature, PUBG has been downloaded over 1.3 billion times. It still holds a loyal and active fan base in Bangladesh and beyond.

5. Bus Simulator Bangladesh
Want to experience what it’s like driving a bus through Dhaka’s bustling streets? Bus Simulator Bangladesh, developed by Ghost Interactive in 2021, lets you do just that—virtually! It has quickly gained popularity, especially among local gamers.
🚌 What makes it standout is the realistic 3D renderings of actual roads and landmarks in Bangladesh. I was particularly impressed seeing familiar spots like Gabtoli Bus Terminal recreated in-game.
With over 1 million downloads and a 4.1-star rating on the Google Play Store, it’s one of the few homegrown games making waves both locally and internationally.
