Video game apps on an old smartphone

There are a ton of video game apps available on the Google Play app store, and games are a great way to utilize an old smartphone. We actually gave our son one for this purpose alone. Simply connect to Wi-Fi and download any of the games you want. The Play Store even has a whole category just for video games. Best of all, once you download a game, many of them don't require an internet connection to play. Playing games is also a good way to waste some time if you need to.
