From mobile games to productivity apps, here are NextPit’s five paid and free Android/iOS apps this week. We publish this selection every week, you can also check the Top 5 apps from last week. This week there will be something dark to think about: death, a state of being that is inevitable for all living beings. However, how would you feel if you were to be the one who brings souls to the afterlife? That’s what Spiritfarer Netflix offers.

Friends Quiz (Android)

Do you like friends? I’m not talking about the other humans you tend to spend most of your waking time with, living with and hanging out with. I’m referring to the classic American sitcom that follows the lives of the amorous Joey, the insane Chandler, the meticulous Monica, the nerdy Ross, the voluptuous Rachel and the eccentric Phoebe who live in New York and cross many incidents in life. together.

If you think you’re a huge fan of this sitcom, then you might want to have fun playing this game that asks 10 random questions across 10 entire seasons!

It’s a mix of easy and hard questions – yes, that’s right, there doesn’t seem to be any middle ground. With over 200 questions that can be asked, it’s the perfect conversation starter for those who grew up on this sitcom when you’re on your first date or have nothing more to say to each other!

The ads aren’t intrusive at all, but they do make their presence felt. Still, it’s a fun game that becomes even more fun if you were to turn it into a drinking game! How are you doing’?

Da Vinci’s House III (iOS and Android)

It’s been a while, but it’s yet another title in the game series that boasts stunning graphics. We can’t blame the developers – after all, they released one of the best looking games we voted for this year! At the heart of it all, this is a puzzle game that will challenge your brain as you explore new places that are simply stunning to look at.

You will certainly be puzzled at one point or another – I know I was, and I had to fight the urge to go online and search for pointers or watch YouTube tutorials during these times. Normally when this happens I just stop playing and take a walk or do something else, only to come back to the same puzzle later to find myself looking at it from a different angle.

There are times when the story is advanced without paying too much attention to the gameplay, which literally leads to more button presses compared to training my brain. Although it’s billed as the last game in the series, I hope that’s not the case because it would be a waste if a unique puzzle game like this ends without giving us hope for more.

Trivia Crack 2 (iOS and Android)

Are you wearing a smug face just because you’re a walking encyclopedia? Let this game decide how smart you are when it comes to trivia! There are many different categories, ranging from TV shows to movies, books, artists, and more. Of course, for die-hard traditionalists, there are also those classic categories that make up the game – Art, Science, History, Entertainment, Sports, and Geography.

You can choose to challenge a randomly assigned opponent from another part of the world, so why not see how the rest of the global village stacks up in terms of trivia? Granted, much will be skewed regarding the Global North, but at least you’ll be able to expand your knowledge if you’re from the Global South!

Collect crowns along the way by answering additional questions to unlock more in-game goodies. There are 3 modes to choose from: Classic Mode, Daily Challenges, and Tower Duel just to keep things interesting. If you don’t like flying solo, why not join a team and spice things up?

ZomokMe (Android)

They say one of the first steps you take to achieve financial independence is to keep track of your spending. Well, there’s certainly no way to argue against such logic. After all, if you can’t know exactly how much income is coming in and how much expense you’ve incurred, how else can you build your wealth?

ZomokMe hopes to clear the air with a very basic app for Android so users can track and calculate their daily expenses. In addition, one can also track expenses for various events, such as a night out with friends.

Simple to use and fun, this app does not collect any personal data or information, although a username is required at the start before you can proceed. This app creates a receipt for each day so you know how much you spent. If you went out with a group, you can even share the receipt among friends on the spot.

Assuming you’re the one who footed the bill, then tag your friends so they too can shell out their share while you teach them not to be cheapskates and let go.

Individual users can see their own created or tagged receipts, while you can also block or delete tagged receipts from fake or annoying users. This is the first step to collecting your first million! Don’t forget to thank us at NextPit when that day comes!

Spiritfarer Netflix (iOS and Android)

While I understand how Netflix is ​​trying to diversify its revenue channel by going beyond streaming and introducing the world of gaming, so far they’ve had more misses than hits. Spiritfarer Mobile looks set to buck that trend as a Netflix member-exclusive title.

You play as the protagonist of a ferrymaster who brings the souls of departed loved ones to the afterlife. First, you need to build your ship in order to explore the surroundings before you can provide proper healing to the spirits. Along the way, you’ll have the chance to upgrade your ship to provide better “service”, so to speak.

There seem to be some heartbreaking personalities you’ll meet along the way, having conversations with them and letting them grow inside of you. For those who are very emotional, you might want to keep a box of tissues nearby in case an invisible ninja starts chopping onions. I’d recommend this game, which is perhaps better written than some of Netflix’s drivel offerings these days.
