Hundreds of free games to satisfy your retro appetite

The Apple Watch is much more than a smartwatch on its own. Aside from its features for accurately measuring our physical activity, its vast ecosystem of third-party applications made me want to turn it into something I never expected: a portable gaming console. And of all the ones I’ve tried These are the best games of 2023 for your Apple Watch.

I remember starting using my Apple Watch Series 8 on the premise “with this I will at least control my daily activity”. Today it has become a tool to check my Alsa or Iberia tickets, request a Cabify, monitor Bandsintown concert notifications, see how much I’m saving with the Day or Revolut card, sync home workouts and even to keep an eye on home automation. Because even the Xiaomi Home App is 100% compatible.

However, I’ve always kept the playful part separate, more out of ignorance than conscious desire. The ecosystem of applications for the Apple Watch is fine, but I didn’t know how it behaved in games. And I don’t know if I made the right decision because Now I play with the Apple Watch every time I have to queue or wait somewhere. And out of all the ones I’ve tried, these are the games I recommend.
