The Android Quality Index boasts over 290,000 reviews from websites like Life of Android, Pocket Gamer, and Gamezebo, and uses a unique metric to create a single definitive score for each Android title.
All downhill from here
Ski Safari really nailed its run to top the Android Qi game leaderboard in July 2012. In Defiant Development's casual treat, you make your way down an endless mountain, attempting to outrun an avalanche. Penguins, eagles, and even yetis must be utilised along the way.
Battling away in second place this month, meanwhile, is Square Enix's epic RPG Final Fantasy III. This 3D remake features tens of hours of timeless turn-based battling and world map wandering.
Further down in fourth, there's more strategic battling - only this time of the space-bound variety. Strikefleet Omega puts you in charge of humanity's last-surviving star fleet, which you must upgrade and send into battle against the alien hordes.

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.
