Live wallpapers make your android look live and beautiful, but this is the culprit behind the poor performance. These live wallpapers consume more than half of the ram leaving a very less memory for gaming. Try to use a wallpaper of size less than 1Mb. This frees up your memory and boosts performance. Also remove window animation in settings, it reduces ram consumption.

2) Reduce the usage of Widgets

The more widgets you use, the more ram is consumed. Keeping widgets on your home screen makes your work easy but excess usage of widgets leads to poor performance. So reduce the usage of widgets. It would be better if you remove them all.

Try to close all opened apps before gaming. Even if you close them some of the apps run in background which consumes Ram without being noticed. Use third party apps like "Advanced task killer" to kill background processes. Do it very frequently because the number of apps running in background keep on increasing. You can also use apps like "Memory Booster" and "Speed booster" to boost your memory. These apps have options like auto boost for which we can set time interval.

4) Overclock your android device processor

This procedure is different for different android devices so just Google your android device model number followed by overclocking.
