I have a samsung note 10.1 which has become my entertainment centre. The difficulty I am having is there seems to be no way of sorting the games in the google play store into ones optimised for tablets worse luck. So I am after recommendations from you guys. I am not really into killing things type games but other than that I will try most things. I do already have all the games by the candy crush folks and really enjoy them. Suggest away folks 🙂

How about _The Simpsons: Tapped Out_? That seems to have a bit of a following here.

You can ask the store to offer “games that take advantage of big screens”, it’s a specific category: those will be designed for tablets.

I will have a look - so far google play has been most unuser friendly.
