Top 5 best mobile games to play with your partner this Valentine's Day
Love is a game
It's Valentine's Day, which means a fair proportion of you will soon be doing lovey-dovey things with other people this evening.
What sort of things? The kind of fun, playful things that require plenty of effort and dexterity for mutual satisfaction.
That's right, we're talking about local multiplayer mobile games. What else?
The following mobile games might not all be thematically loved up, but they do all demand that you have a right giggle with someone stood, sat, or (steady) lying right next to you.
Keep it clean out there, people. No one likes a mucky screen.
1
Mucho Party
This charming minigame collection practically begs two consenting people to come and play with it. Seriously, it sucks as single player experience.
The key here is that the minigames are played on a single device, leading to inevitable clashes and collisions. If you want things to get physical this Valentine's Day, throw yourself a Mucho Party.
2
Fingle
Is Mucho Party too subtle for you? Just skip past the foreplay and jump straight to Fingle, then. Just Make sure you wash your hands and trim your fingernails beforehand.
The game presents you with a series of moving squares and demands that two players keep their fingers planted on them. This results in a veritable digit spaghetti junction. It's pretty much Twister for fingers.
3
Spaceteam
Maybe your idea of a romantic night in takes on more of a sci-fi theme. Hey, no judgements - we're all nerds here. Spaceteam is the ultimate Star Trek role playing aid.
It asks you and a crew mate to fly a starship, with each iOS device serving as a malfunctioning control panel. It's the ultimate way to fly your partner to the stars. And then crash into said stars. Then argue about whose fault it was.
4
Death Squared
Maybe all the local multiplayer stuff so far has been just a little too frivolous for you. Perhaps your current relationship is built on a more cerebral footing.
Death Squared will tickle your neurones whilst encouraging warm-hearted cooperation, with its spatial puzzles demanding that you get your heads together - both literally and metaphorically.

PKTBALL
What's the best date game? Yes, you're right, pool is pretty good. But I was thinking more of air hockey. There's playful to-and-froing to be had, not to mention bending over tables and a fair amount of grunting.
Pktball is basically digital air hockey. Okay, so there isn't as much of the aforementioned physical chicanery. But you do have to sit really close to the other person, which has to count for something.
