Angry Birds Star Wars and Expendable Rearmed are the top-reviewed Android games for November
|

If you were wondering what the best-reviewed Android games on the web last month were, here's the Android Quality Index round-up for November to fill you in.

The Android Quality Index boasts over 290,000 reviews from websites like Life of Android, Pocket Gamer, and GameDynamo, and uses a unique metric to create a single definitive score for each Android title.

Use the Force

At the top of November's Android Qi games chart sits arguably the highest-profile mash-up of the year: Angry Birds Star Wars. Rovio's familiar physics-puzzler strikes back with lightsabers, force powers, and a pair of hapless droids.

Behind it in second place, Expendable Rearmed marries old skool shoot-'em-up gameplay with next-gen 3D visuals, and places you in a seamless yet tremendously detailed futuristic world.

In fourth place, meanwhile, is Need for Speed: Most Wanted, which is every inch the modern console arcade racer.

Stepping back into the past once again, we have Knights of Pen & Paper at #5. In this tabletop RPG from Behold Studios, you play the part of both hero and dungeon master. Clever twist, huh.

N.B. While we only display the average score to one decimal place, the list is generated to further significant figures. We just don't show them all. And, naturally, this is a static graph based on live listings which are subject to constant change as new releases and reviews emerge. In order to provide a regular marker of the critical zeitgeist, however, we will continue to round up the best of the Android games released each month to provide the definitive Quality Index top ten.
