How we review games

What we do

China H5 picks Android games from Google Play and sorts them into lists by mood, player and play style, so you can find something worth downloading without scrolling the store for an hour.

How scores work

The score out of 5 is our editors' judgment, not the Google Play star rating. It weighs how good and deep the game is, how fair its ads and in-app purchases are, how well it runs on an everyday phone and how long it stays fun. Editor's Choice marks the reviewed games we would suggest to almost anyone.

Facts from Google Play

Star ratings, install counts, prices, age ratings and whether a game has ads or in-app purchases come straight from Google Play and are refreshed every day, so they can change from one visit to the next.

Whose games these are

Every game is made by its own developer and downloads from Google Play. China H5 is not affiliated with Google or with any game publisher.

No paid placement

Publishers do not pay for reviews or for a spot on a list.

Keeping lists fresh

We revisit the lists regularly. If a price, rating or detail looks out of date, tell us through the contact page.
