    On BlackBerry World (the BlackBerry appstore), if you swipe to the right, there is a separate tab for games. Scrolling down, you will see 'Top free games':

    You can grab popular Android games as well - through Amazon Appstore, Snap or Google Playstore. Playstore lets you purchase Android apps and make in-app purchases.

    If, in case, you are looking for the native counterparts to Android versions, then I'm afraid you will be disappointed. For example, BBW does not have popular games like Candy Crush, Clash of Clans, etc.

    You're welcome!

    Well, with a little (we can differ in its definition in this context :P) fidgeting we can have the Playstore, all thanks to Cobalt232 (a CB member):

    This is how it looks:

    You can better understand the pros and cons of everything by reading through the thread, rather than me overloading you information here! Hopefully, you will enjoy it as much as the rest of t he users.

    Happy BlackBerry-ing and CrackBerry-ing as well!

    You can install the program "snap" not to be confused with snapchat

    The program Snap allows you to easily download and run android apps, and the app "Snap" is a good app you can update it and it is easy to use and it looks good

    But here is the catch

    To install Snap you need to do a big thing the installation takes about 15 min or so, can take longer if you get confused, if you are interested then search how to install snap on blackberry.
