Here, popular has a simple meaning: players return. A few are short puzzles you can wrap up quickly, such as Block Blast, where you slide pieces over a board and wipe out rows before space runs out. Others call for good timing and some courage, like Moto X3M, where you tilt the bike across ramps and do your best to avoid a face-first landing. And some are unhurried picks for a calm pause, like Sudoku, which is basically counting to nine with extra steps.

Nearly all of them work well one-handed on a phone, which suits a brief pause or a long bus journey. Try Block Blast if you want something relaxed, Moto X3M if you feel like moving, or Sudoku if a number puzzle that never rushes you sounds right. Choose one, play a round, and notice which one draws you back.
