Android version of the award-winning tile-based board game "Carcassonne"Free Add-On: The River IIOnline and local multiplayer mode for up to 6 playersClever AI opponents with individual strategiesTutorial for beginnersExpansion packs now available as in-app purchasesLanguage Support: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese
Here's a good starter list. I will also include links to Wil Weaton's Tabletop series in the titles for the games where available, if you'd like to see a very well-produced video of the game actually being played.
Settlers of Catan - This one has probably become more mainstream than most "hobby games", but it's a classic that's stood the test of time. A 3-4 player game of wheeling and dealing with the other players as you try to establish yourself as a civilization on a new island.
Carcassonne - Another classic, this is a 2-5 player "tile laying" game where you place square pieces to line up with other pieces to establish an area of French countryside. You build the board as you go, and then you place your pawns on the board in order to try to gain control of different cities, roads, and monasteries before they are built. If you like playing games like dominoes, or building jigsaw puzzles, this game will appeal to you. It's also available for free on the Amazon App Store right now for all Android devices: http://smile.amazon.com/exozet-games-Carcassonne/dp/B0081SRJSY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406819427&sr=8-1&keywords=carcassonne+android
Ticket to Ride - A 2-5 player game where players collect hands of different-colored cards in order to construct train routes across a map of the USA (although there are many other versions available, including Europe). If you like games like Rummy, this game will appeal to you. There are also Android, iOS, and Steam versions available.
Dominion - A 2-4 player game that started the "deck-building" genre. Players each start off with the same deck of 10 cards, with an available pool of many cards to "buy" set up in the middle of the table. As the game progresses, you purchase these cards to add to your own personal deck, which allow you to build up powerful combos, trying to add the most valuable victory point cards to your deck before other players do and end the game. You only include a small subset of the available cards every game, ensuring that no two games will be the same. If you like CCGs like Magic the Gathering, without the crazy expense of always buying cards, then this game will appeal to you.
The Resistance - A 5-10 player social deduction game. In a dystopian future, a team of rebels band together to try and sabotage critical government installations. However, the government has secretly infiltrated the rebel group with a number of spies. The rebels must work together to try and determine who among them are the spies before it's too late. Lots of accusations, backstabbing, and laughter to be found in this game. If you like social hidden-role games like Mafia and Werewolf, this game will appeal to you.
Coup - A 3-6 player hidden role game set in the same fictional universe as The Resistance. Each player gets two cards, each of which represents an influential government figure who they are exerting influence over, and each of whom has their own special power. However, cards are kept secret, allowing players to bluff about which cards they actually have. You are trying to eliminate the other players' influence before they eliminate yours. Unlike the other games on this list, this game does feature player elimination, but games are short (<15 minutes) so it's not that big of a deal. If you like bluffing games like Poker or "BS", this game will appeal to you.
Pandemic - A 2-4 player cooperative game where all players work together to try to find cures for 4 different diseases before they take over the world. This is a difficult, tense game that will kick your butt over and over again. If you like games with a challenge, but you also don't like competing with other players, this game will appeal to you.
If anybody wants further recommendations, I'd be happy to help. All of these games should be readily available on Amazon.com, many of them can also be found at retailers like Barnes and Noble and Target.
I had Carcassonne on my Android phone, but it looks like it disappeared after an update. There was certainly an Android version at some point: https://www.amazon.com/exozet-games-Carcassonne/dp/B0081SRJSY
Pretty lame, that you can't get an app you paid for because the company lost the license.

This app is compatible with the Kindle Fire. Not compatible with phones i guess.
Go get them! :D If you find any error here, feel free to send me a PM.

For the lazy
The one folks are referring to is iOS only. Always has been.
Edit: The good app was iOS only. That's the one people are referring to. The Android-only one was not good; that is not what people are referring to. Reviews of that game show it had a very clunky interface, wasn't polished, and had lots of bugs.

Note the completely different design and completely different developers.
