Please help.
Did you tried uninstall it? If you can off course. As i know Apshalt Nitro and Midnight Pool is Gameloft games and isn't pre-installed games in Sony Xperia smartphones (how i saw).
1. Is possible that you accidentally installed these games?
2. Could someone else install these games?
3. Did you update yours smartphone with Xperia Companion, straight in your smartphone or did you flashed it with Xperia tool and ect.?
4. Did you rooted your smartphone?
I asked these questions, coz for me sounds really strange: Gameloft games are pre-installed in some mobile, but most time how i saw that's simple cell phones. Also Midnight Pool if i'm not wrong long time isn't in market. Even i don't believe that was pre-installed in Xperia devices, even new device as model XZ1. So questions which is for me is these: about root, others family memebers or flashed 3rd party operating system. I don't believe that Sony add these games into theirs edited android version at all. But i can be wrong, maybe Sony have deal with Gameloft now. By the way confirm me are we talking about XZ1 model at all? 
You're right. The apps couldn't have been installed automatically. Even when I check on the play store, asphalt nitro is showing as not installed and also the version of my app is very old.
Inever gave my phone to anyone else.
Itisn't rooted.
But the wierd thing is that the version number of the software update I got recently is the same as the previous one.
The games do not open. When I tap the icon, I get a message saying ashpalt nitro has stopped.
I cannot uninstall the apps. I can only disable them.
I installed the update with the companion, not by computer.
