Hey! I looked around a bit and the last thread like this I found was several months ago, so I thought I’d make a new one. As per the title, what game do you play on your phone? I’m both looking for new ones myself by also hope others might find some of interest to them.

For my own part of this I mostly like puzzle games, especially these:

Hook, Klocki, NABOKI etc. from Rainbow Trains games

Monument Valley games from ustwo games

The Room series from Fireproof games

I Love Hue duology from Zut!

And all the games from Legenbeary games (very addicted to Wordathlon, currently at level 3253)

(all playstore links)

Would love recommendations of any lesser-known similar ones! But post anything you like of course. :)

Hope anyone finds something they like from my list above or recommend by others in comments (if there are any, heh).

Cheers!

    Basically just Fire Emblem Heroes right now.

    I keep trying to find a fun game that isn’t a pay to win where you need to whale hundreds of dollars for a -chance- to get something usable (FE Heroes is kinda like this but not too bad) but everything on the app store seems like garbage whenever I look. It’s all designed to punish you if you don’t pay enough money. I don’t mind paying a bit for a game I like but I can’t really find anything good.

    I might end up just buying Slay The Spire, even though I already own it on PC.

      All the way through your comment I was thinking, you should try Slay the Spire, but you beat me to it. Another one you might consider is Star Traders: Frontiers I don’t think it has any microtransactions (it’s also on Steam)

        I’m not a fan of touchscreen buttons, so I ended up getting a few SBC Gaming devices that emulate games really well and with a native or scaled resolution to match original systems. Or just play them on original hardware (using a flash cartridge if needed).

        But to avoid carrying an extra device, android emulation is the way to go.
