Yes folks, it's that time of year
The mobile platform had one hell of year in 2015. From the plethora of ports like Transistor and Don't Starve, to the original games like Horizon Chase and Prune and anticipated sequels in Sorcery and The Room sequels, to long-awaited follow-ups to early mobile milestones like Spider and Aralon, mobile gaming delivered week after week.
So...on to the voting!

- You may vote for any mobile game released in 2015, on any mobile platform (IOS, Android, Windows, etc.). Go by the date when the game released on a particular platform.

Due to the sheer volume of games that release on mobile, it can be difficult to find a definite list of 2015 releases. Here are a few sites that might help:
- Metacritic's Best iOS/iPad games of 2015
- Android Gaming thread
- GAF's monthly iOS threads: December 2014/January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December
Voting concludes on Wednesday January 20, 2016 at 11:59 PM PST.
And yes, there will be a results thread this time. Last year, that got sidetracked due to some IRL situations (mainly a death in the family), so I never got around to it. But there will definitely be one for 2015
If anyone's interested, here were the final results for 2014:
1) Monument Valley
2) Threes
3) 80 Days
4) Hitman Go
5) Hearthstone | Terra Battle
6) Out There
7) The Banner Saga
8) Valiant Hearts
9) Wayward Souls | Kingdom Rush: Origins
10) FTL
