The weekend’s almost here, so you have time to relax and check out a free game (or three) on your smartphone. Here are the highlights from the last week.
This is a hand-picked list of free apps we’ve noticed this week while assembling our regular App Deals roundup of new and discounted apps. We haven’t reviewed them and we don’t endorse them. As with the main App Deals column, apps can stop being free at a moment’s notice if they’re discounted, so grab them quickly if you’re interested.
