Playing games by using buttons seems so old school, especially in this time and age where everything is just one click away. Being a modern age kid is very hectic and tiresome. In this tiring routine, no one wants to go through the trouble of using thousands of keys just to play a game which is supposed to be fun and exciting. Using plethora of buttons for the game to function takes all the fun right out of that game and instead of enjoying, kids end up losing their interest in that game.

I remember how boring it was during my childhood when I had to go through the trouble of using almost every key available on my keyboard for my favourite game i.e. Sim Taxi to function or even Snake by Nokia for that matter.

Well amazingly, now app game developers are tapping into the mobile tilt functions and hand gesture technology to build gaming experiences that use one or no button at all. You simply touch your mobile screen and "boom" you're flipping through the game like an expert! Want to know more about these awesome and exciting games? Then keep reading to discover what more your mobile touch screen can do.

Here we will provide you information on top five mobile as well as video games with incredible touch controls.

HAMMERFIGHT

This game was published by Kranx production and 1C in 2009. Hammerfight is a 2 dimensional physics based videogame which was re-released as cross-platform game in the third Humble Indie Bundle in 2011. In this game a single player leads his tribe Gaiars to victory by fighting a battle with the tribe's rivalry, who made the tribe extinct years ago.

So, as the last surviving member of the tribe, the player seeks revenge from his enemies in the battle arena. In this physics based game the player swings large metals to destroy its enemies. Centripetal force helps the player to generate sufficient kinetic energy to swing the metal.
