Stressed out? Distract your “monkey mind” with a good gaming app – like these three, which have earned the honour of being some of LINE’s most popular.
Stressed out? Distract your “monkey mind” with a good gaming app – like these three, which have earned the honour of being some of LINE’s most popular.
1. LINE: Disney Tsum Tsum
Good for... when you need a game that’s going to distract you – but not so much that you miss out on someone asking you a question, or an important twist in the plot line of the K-Drama you’re half-watching.
The rundown: This game isn’t a new concept, but it’s the cutest version we’ve seen so far. Like Bejeweled and Candy Crush, it’s a matching game. You basically need to clear the Tsum Tsums that are falling from the sky by swiping your finger across icons of the same character to connect them.The more you connect at once, the higher your score. Each game lasts a minute, but you can get extensions if you’re playing really well.
Claim to fame: This game has 75 million (!!!) downloads worldwide.

2. LINE: Let’s Get Rich
Good for... engaging just the right amount of brainpower (so it’s distracting but not taxing), and also staying in touch with your friends, without having to actually talk to them.
The rundown: Just roll the dice on the virtual board and travel the world! You can play with up to three other players in real-time as you try to get the most landmarks. The fun bit is competing or cooperating against your other LINE friends.
Claim to fame: It’s LINE’s Top Casual Board Game in the world, with more than 200 million downloads.

3. LINE: GUNDAM WARS
Good for... total distraction.
The rundown: If you loved the Gundam anime series, you’ll love this battle simulator game. You start by assembling a team of Mobile Suits that you can customise before sending them out on missions. The more you play, the more Mobile Suits and upgrades you’ll have access to – and the more fun it becomes.
Claim to fame: This game has over four million downloads in only two years.
