With the possible exception of Angry Birds, games are more fun when you can play them with others.
The Android Market is full of great game apps, and there are quite a few multiplayer games in that number, as well — far more than when we first wrote about Android multiplayer games a year ago.
Here’s a quick roundup of the best Android pass-and-play and cross-platform multiplayer games, including MMOPRGs, action games, casual games and the ever-popular Words With Friends.
In the comments, please let us know if we missed any of your favorites.
Pocket Legends
This mobile MMO has garnered plenty of critical acclaim, including a Mashable nod during the 2010 Mashable Awards last year. As with many MMORPGs, you'll chose a character, develop your abilities and skills and do battle alongside other players in fantasy settings such as dungeons, mountains and swamps.Android Market
Parallel Kingdom
This game uses Google Maps and your actual location with a Zelda-reminiscent overlay to show players 'the creatures lurking in your backyard and the mythical beasts that you pass everyday on your way to work.' You can chat and plot with your fellow players to navigate the augmented reality around you.Android Market link
Raging Thunder
Are you ready for a cross-platform multiplayer racing game? Raging Thunder lets you play with up to three other people in an arcade-style setting.Android Market link

Would a Scrabble by any other name play as sweet? Words With Friends proves that it would, indeed. Players find one another by username, and the in-game chat feature is a nice touch.Android Market link
