Design your way

Having a few iPhone sports games installed will surely help you make time pass faster when commuting or waiting for something.

According to the Bureau of Labour Statistics of the United States, Americans are spending a minimum of 5 hours daily engaging sport activities.

The top iPhone sports games that you will find in our list are having awesome graphics and simple controls.

This makes it easier for you to take your tablet or phone and get hooked by a great game.

If you’re into rough sports or you prefer to manage tactics and teams, there is surely something that you can find in our list of mobile sports games for your iOS device.

NBA 2K17

The NBA playoffs are in full swing, but you’re just as likely to find first-rate hoops action on your iPhone with NBA 2K17. Slick graphics, a variety of game modes, and full court gameplay continue the record set by the series, with expanded gameplay features and physical controller support included in the latest release.

Highlights include a deeper MyCareer mode with a new Off Day Simulator, as well as an expanded EuroLeague feature, alternate team uniforms, and historic players. All of this comes on top of the already excellent package of Season, MyCareer, and Blacktop mode play, making this a premium sports game well worth its asking price.

Madden NFL Mobile

An interesting mix of hardcore sim and free-to-play fun, Madden NFL Mobile combines the franchise’s hard-nosed American football action and tactical play with a digital trading-card system. The game features slick graphics, as well as technical gameplay that rewards smart playbook choices and sound tactics in the field.

Madden NFL Mobile also offers League and Season modes, live events and challenges to spice things up, as well as a marketplace and auction house for purchasing booster packs or extra players to upgrade your team.

Football Heroes Pro 2017

Whereas Madden NFL Mobile goes for a mix of arcade and simulation gameplay, Football Heroes Pro 2017 is a full-on arcade experience that draws inspiration from Tecmo Bowl and NBA Jam. Simple arcade controls, super moves and a cartoony art style keep things light and fun, with multiplayer support over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth that lets you battle it out with friends.

Like many free-to-play sports games, it’s driven by a collectible card mechanic, with players spending in-game points or real cash in order to purchase booster packs of players.

NBA Jam

NBA Jam is a 2-on-2 basketball arcade classic, and the modern mobile remake stays true to the original’s wacky aesthetic and arcade gameplay, while also offering modern features like online multiplayer.

Players can dive straight into the action with the Play Now mode or unlock hidden players and cheats in the single player campaign. Local multiplayer allows you to go head to head versus a friend via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

MLB Perfect Inning

While Gamevil’s earlier Baseball Superstars games featured an anime-RPG aesthetic, the licensed MLB Perfect Inning offers more realistic sports sim gameplay along with its free-to-play card-collecting system.

Perfect Inning’s numerous game modes include a full-on AI-controlled simulation, an offense-only mode, and a mode that has you take full control of your team’s pitching and batting. As players progress, they earn points that can be spent to buy new players or upgrade their existing lineup (all of which also can be done with real cash).

MLB Homerun Derby

While Perfect Inning delivers a compressed baseball game experience, MLB Home Run Derby 2016 goes for a more full-on arcade experience, challenging players to hit as many home runs as they can in a given amount of time.

Players earn points for both the number of home runs hit, distance those homers travel and targeted skillshots, with end-of-match rewards allowing you to sign up new players, buy improved equipment or grab temporary boosts for in-game performance.

Arcade mode has you battling for points, while single player and multiplayer derby modes will let you battle it out against the AI or other human players in head to head bracket battles. MLB updates the game every season to reflect the venue for that year’s All Star Game.

Real Boxing 2: Rocky

Put up your dukes in Real Boxing 2: Rocky. Players can take on the role of Rocky Balboa and relive the movies by fighting it out against iconic adversaries like Apollo Creed and Ivan Drago to become world champion.

Alternatively, you can chart your own course by creating a custom boxer and engaging in the game’s career mode, where you can challenge a variety of opponents as well as time-limited bosses, or engage in PVP matches against other players.

Virtua Tennis Challenge

Sega’s Virtua Tennis Challenge brings the venerable sports franchise to mobile devices, letting players choose from 50 fictional players in their quest to become the world’s No. 1 tennis player. Players can utilize either gesture controls or a more traditional virtual gamepad as they cut loose with lobs, slices, drop shots and more.

The SPT World Tour mode challenges you to advance to the top by competing in new tournaments daily. Exhibition matches allow you to cut loose with quick matches, and you can challenge your friends to a multiplayer match over Bluetooth.

Table Tennis Touch

Table Tennis Touch takes the high-intensity game of ping pong and translates it adroitly into a mobile-friendly form. Players take control of the paddles with swipes, engaging in high-speed rallies against a variety of opponents.

Players can engage in a Career mode, have at it in Quick Play games or unlock a variety of challenging minigames in Arcade mode. Table Tennis Touch looks and plays great, and the addition of a multiplayer mode lets you play against friends in local and online matches.

FIFA Mobile

FIFA Mobile is the latest of Electronic Arts’ annual football games, delivering slick soccer action straight into your smartphone; it’s also one of the 10 best iOS games of 2016 according to Apple’s App Store rankings.

In addition to the Ultimate Team management mode, FIFA Mobile also includes a variety of short game modes, such as Attack Mode that puts you in command of an aggressive play against the other team’s goal, as well as a continuously updated roster of Live Events games themed around the latest matches and events. In addition, FIFA Mobile now includes social play Leagues, with players grouping up and joining forces in inter-league competitions.

Matt Duchene’s Hockey Classic

Take to the ice with Matt Duchene’s Hockey Classic, the latest in Distinctive Wireless’s mobile series, which adds new game modes and expanded team rosters to the mix. Players can jump in for some instant action with Face-Off games, while Playoff and Winter Games modes have a more tournament style going for them.

A grueling new Hockey Giants mode has teams racing to 5 points, and the Outdoor Series and Live Games add new ways to play for an already solid mobile hockey game.

Football Manager 2017 Touch

For a more strategic view of “the beautiful game”, check out Sega’s long-running Football Manager series, a game that puts you in the manager’s chair of your favorite football clubs.

A fantastically detailed sports simulator that prizes accuracy over flashiness, Football Manager dry, menu-driven interface and gameplay isn’t exactly spectacular, but for a stat junkie that loves all the nitty-gritty details of transfers, lineups and tactics, it’s a dream come true.

More iterative than revolutionary, the 2017 edition features new game modes such as a Fantasy Draft, Online Versus, and Online Career modes. The Touch edition is designed for higher end tablets like the newest iPads, while Football Manager Mobile is designed to work on smartphones.

True Skate

Take to the skate park with True Skate, a mobile skating game that has you swiping, flicking and dragging on the touch screen to pull off crazy skateboard tricks.

Rather than engaging you in missions or competitions, True Skate is more of a skateboarding sandbox, allowing you to play around in the game’s virtual skate park and score points based on the difficulty of your tricks. In-app purchases provide additional content, such as more skate parks and board customization options.

King of the Course Golf

Electronic Arts’ King of the Course Golf is decidedly less of a hardcore golf sim than the Tiger Woods series. The game instead aims for a more arcadelike feel, with game modes for conventional stroke play or trick shots such as hitting bulls eyes or skipping your shot across the water.

The quick-play challenges might be on the fantastical side, but the game does offer famous real-world courses, such as TPC Sawgrass, Pinehurst No. 2 and Banff Springs

Super Stickman Golf 3

And now for something completely different. Super Stickman Golf 3 throws simulation totally out the window in exchange for absolutely wacky, side-scrolling physics-puzzle gameplay.

Featuring 20 dynamic courses, hundreds of holes and a wide variety of hazards and terrain types such as magnets, moving obstacles and sticky terrain, Super Stickman Golf is definitely not your daddy’s golf sim.

Players can unlock a variety of player avatars, ball trail effects, and dozens of hats with a variety of game traits, and can participate in online multiplayer when they’ve grown tired of the single player challenges.

New Star Soccer

If you’ve never really gotten along with classic footy games on mobile, New Star Soccer shows that there’s another way. This is a proper native mobile football game, and it’s brilliant.

Punch Club

Train your MMA fighter into a formidable fighting machine whilst simultaneously taking care of his life outside of the ring. It’s basically a Rocky simulator, which is fine by us.

 

Skiing Yeti Mountain

This deeply daft casual game somehow nails the rhythm and momentum of downhill skiing with a simple touch and swipe control system.

Penny Time

There are more faithful skateboarding sims on iOS, but Penny Time focuses on simply being fun. It does so by creating a slick, stunt-filled autorunner with a distinctive art style.

Touchgrind Skate 2

This one takes a rather literal stance regarding controlling a sports game with your fingers. The board appears on the screen and your fingers become tiny legs, enabling you to perform gnarly and rad tricks, man! Irksome lingo aside, this is a fantastic title that’s initially demanding but hugely rewarding once mastered.

You can also upload videos of your best moves and show off to your friends, and there’s fortunately no way you can skin your knees, unless you trip over while obsessively performing ollies, powerslides and heelflips while walking down the street.

Magnetic Billiards

If you’re the kind of person who gets off on using cushions to pot the odd ball in pool, you’ll love Magnetic Billiards. A sort-of physics puzzler take on the popular pub game, it dispenses with pockets entirely — you instead clear the table by building clusters of connected balls that then vanish.

Emptying a table’s the easy part, though — the real skill is in figuring out insanely complex trick shots to get to that point, ‘buzzing’ balls of different colours, and creating a pleasing magnetic shape before it vanishes into the ether. For free, you get 20 tables; £1.49 nets you a ‘skeleton’ key that unlocks the rest of the game.

World Tour Golf

With EA having deserted ‘proper’ golf games on mobile for the arcadey nonsense of King of the Course, WGT thwacks a ball and gets a realism hole-in-one. This really is a quite astonishing game, from the delicate controls through to the eye-popping photo-realistic courses you play on.

A word of warning: it also takes no prisoners. There’s no nonchalantly spinning a ball in mid-air when you fluff a shot. Here, you’ll end up in the bunker, then overshoot the green, before multiple putts leave you embarrassingly over par. But put in the practice and you’ll be a virtual golfing superstar before long.

R.B.I. Baseball 17

If you love the realistic simulation sports games that exist on all the major consoles, you’ll love R.B.I Baseball 17.

This massive game (a download size of 2.55 GB) allows you to play the full 162-game 2017 MLB season as your favorite team! Through free updates, you can keep up with all the roster changes throughout the season, so you never skip a beat!

With three difficulty levels to choose from, you’ll be able to enjoy the experience of real baseball regardless of your skill level. Can you take your team in the postseason?

When it comes to realistic sports simulations in iOS, R.B.I Baseball 17 is a home run.

Snowboard Party 2

Snowboard Party 2 is a surprisingly exciting snowboarding game that has a lot of depth. With five game modes, 50 unique tricks to perform, and 16 playable characters, there are a lot of reasons to keep playing.

Despite being a slightly older game, Snowboard Party 2’s graphics are still pretty impressive, and the game hasn’t been abandoned by the developer. The newest version updated about a month ago.

Snowboard Party 2 is the closest thing you will be able to get to those classic SSX Snowboard games you used to play on your favorite console.

Fishing Kings Free+

Dream of hitting the open water and reeling in a big one? Fishing Kings Free+ is an oldie, but a goodie!

Sail around the world to catch the rarest and biggest fish around! You’ll need gain experience, make money, and collect new gear to become a true master angler.

Despite being an older game, the graphics are still pretty impressive, and the gameplay is really fun and challenging, making it great to play for a couple of minutes or a couple of hours!

8 Ball Pool

Another classic game that is still going strong, 8 Ball Pool is a fantastic pick-up-and-play billiards game!

With several different tables and locations to choose from, you can face off against AI opponents on three different difficulties in the practice arena!

Do you think you have what it takes to be the best pool shark in the world? Take on people from all over the world and show them who’s boss!

Whether you want to spend minutes or hours playing pool, 8 Ball Pool has a super active community; you’ll never have trouble finding someone to play with!

Flick Champions

Like a lot of sports? This game has eight variations of sports, from soccer to bowling.

The games resemble table versions, rather than realistic sport versions. However, they’re still more involved than something like foosball or air hockey. The games feature tournaments and various unlockables, and have same-device multiplayer in the universal iPad version.

Flick Soccer

Soccer is most fun when the player can score goals (sorry, 0-0 matches will never be exciting).

This game is all about the set pieces, and trying to sneak balls past the goalie. The flick mechanic is very easy to use, and makes the game much more fun to play than the average soccer match.

Dream League Soccer 2016

Everyone loves soccer and there’s no doubt about it. Dream League Soccer 2016 is a full featured game with amazing graphics. The game lets you create a team of real FIFPro players, build your own stadiums, and take your team online to get acknowledged.

It’s almost like playing in real; the only difference is that your fingers will work instead of your legs. The game is free to play, but it does have optional coin purchase, in case you wish to.

Snowboarding the Fourth Phase

Snowboarding isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, as it required physical fitness as well as professional training. But if you still wish to have the feel of Snowboarding, you can try Snowboarding The Fourth Phase game for iPhone and iPad.

It has high-resolution graphics that will simply leave you stunned. With power packed levels and features, the adrenaline rush will stay on the peak. It’s completely free to play, but there are optional coin purchases to progress speedily.

Flick Rugby 16

Rugby required extreme fitness to withstand the blows given by opponents. But if you don’t want your bones to break, better play the game on your iPhone or iPad. Flick Rugby 16 is a free to play game with optional in-app purchases.

Apart from that, the game offers a selection of world’s best rugby nations, stunning HD graphics, and much more. It is surely a great game, if you are a fan of rugby.

Golf Star

Golf is considered as a game of rich people and to some extent it is true, not everyone can play golf at the golf court. That’s the reason why we listed Golf Star in this list. The game has stunning next to real graphics.

The terrain, players, and entire gameplay have been detailed with perfection to deliver a golf experience like never before. Like all other games that we have listed, this one is also free but with optional in-app purchases. So far, this is one of the best sports games for iPhone and iPad.

World Cricket Championship 2

Cricket season is on and ICC T20 World Cup is on its way, then why not have some fun with the same on your iPhone / iPad as well? World Cricket Championship 2 is one hell of a game with almost everything that the game of Cricket has to offer.

You can play more than 45+ different shots, select the stadium, build your team, and much more. It is undoubtedly one of the best sports games you can ever play on your iPhone or iPad.

Snooker World

Snooker is one of my favorite sports and so is this game. Snooker World presents you with many different game modes that include one-on-one, multiplayer, and arena. The game also offers a training course, if it’s your first time.

There’s a wide range of selection available for cues and tables to suit your gaming style. Apart from that, you can also chat with players by text or by voice. So get yourself ready to lead the charts worldwide. Did I say the game is totally free?

EA Sports UFC

One of the fastest growing sports is UFC. Now you can virtually get involved without getting hurt. Pick your fighter and begin training. Along with the standard dodging and hitting, each fighter has special skills that will be improved the longer you fight. Use small hits until you a fill up a meter where you can take someone down.

Get your opponent on the floor until you can put them in a submission hold and eventually win the match. One of the most exciting features is the live events. Play along during an actual match to earn rewards. The graphics on this game are intensely realistic, you can even see sweat and blood. It is the best way to enter the octagon and get up close and personal with the action.

Jam City Basketball

This is an arcade-like version of a basketball game. It isn’t affiliated with the NBA so there aren’t actual players or teams but that doesn’t make it any less fun. Play as a guy who just loves basketball and learn how to run and shoot in a gym. Once you’re ready to play against others, you have a few options.

You can play in Arcade mode, which is a two v. two game against the computer. You can also play a Shootout against someone random or a friend. Wait for the app to find your opponent and shoot until the balls are gone. Graphics are cartoony, but gameplay is fun and silly.
