Five black and white Android games that are as beautiful as they are entertaining

It must be recognized that on Google Play there are many games with very vivid colors that visually stimulate the player and black and white titles are a minority. However, using a monochrome tonality as the main graphic resource of a game allows you to create elegant, dark, cold universes … and, ultimately, a unique aesthetic.

Below, we have selected several proposals in black and white (paid, yes) that, through the absence of color, achieve transmit feelings or stimuli to the player to which we are accustomed. Authentic works of art on our mobile.

Starman

The monochromatic and minimalist beauty of ‘Starman’ captivates you as soon as you start to go through its mysterious levels and solve its complex enigmas. While you go through a world of light and dark, you will have to play with the environment, illuminate your surroundings and test your solutions through trial and error.

Delicate architectural atmospheres, elaborate puzzles, and a relaxing surround music They come together in this game that boasts an average rating of 4.5 out of 5. It has a price tag of 0.99 euros and is compatible with Android 7.0 and later versions.

Wormster Dash

This game, with hand-illustrated animated backgrounds, puts you in the shoes of a runner who must escape from a giant worm that he has awakened by digging too much in sacred grounds. Hidden passages and deadly traps are mixed in a fantasy world in which, no matter how much you jump and run, the monster will not stop chasing you.

You will have to look for shortcuts and take advantage of them without losing sight of the worm, which will be on your heels at all times. It has an average rating of 4 out of 5, costs 0.59 euros and is compatible with Android 5.0 and later versions.

.projekt

From the creators of Evo Explores, comes to us a game minimalist puzzle game that presents you with two shadows on two walls projected by the same figure. Your mission will be to build that figure with three-dimensional blocks, but taking into account that, depending on where the light shines, shadows blend and distort giving rise to all kinds of forms.

It is like learning geometry but in a fun and relaxing way, with an elegant aesthetic and more than a hundred levels that will test your spatial vision. It is priced at 1.99 euros, is for the whole family and can be used on devices with Android 4.4 or higher. In addition, it boasts a 4.7 average note and has an augmented reality mode.

Hidden Folks

Here we have a lovely game of hidden objects with 32 hand drawn areas They range from sunny beaches to the big city suburbs. A list of objectives shows you what to look for in each level (an object or a character) and, by tapping on each of them, it offers you a clue to locate it.

Its scenarios, illustrated in black ink on a white background, are interactive, so they respond to touch by releasing over 2,000 different sound effects made with the mouth. There are three color modes: normal, sepia, and night. It costs 4.99 euros, but its 4.8 value supports its success.

Minit

‘Minit’ It is a peculiar adventure that plays in 60 seconds, during which time you will step outside the comfort of your home to help unusual people, discover countless secrets and defeat dangerous enemies. All in the hope of breaking a curse that continues every day.

Yeah as you start off you know that you’re going to die after a minute, but each new beginning allows you to tackle the level with the items and discoveries you have made in previous attempts, so try to collect and find out everything you can to use it when you resurrect. Be careful with its price: 5.49 euros.

Bonus: That Level Again

We did not want to finish this selection without proposing a free title, although rather, it is a saga, because there are already four chapters of ‘That Level Again’. We are facing a game of logic in which all the levels are the same, but the way to pass each one of them is different and unique.

You find yourself in a room with spikes, a platform, a button, and a door. Sounds easy doesn’t it? More than 5 million users They have already verified that it is not and have given this title an average score of 4.7 out of 5. The download is free, but it includes ads and offers purchases within the app.
