I would really love to kill some time on my phone. The games I have tried include: Slay the spire, shattered pixel dungeon, unciv, dead cells. Other than that, are there any solid phone games or otherwise ports, paid or not?
I’m a fan of survivor.io it’s a rogue-like twin stick I suppose.
Limbo is very good on phone/tablet
Polytopia? No ads, game is 100% playable for free, cross platform online multiplayer.
Dawncaster is a really solid roguelike deck builder. One time payment, no ads, paid DLCs with additional archetypes and maps.
I really like Space Flight Simulator. It’s a simplified 2d kerbal basically. Also a sucker for Antiyoy, Balatro, Auralux, and of course an emulator (delta for iOS) so I can play pokemon games.
Boardgame ports are nice, but sometime difficult on a small screen. I am also enjoying Star Traders: Frontiers. There are even the Old Total Wars games. All this are not free though. Netflix has several good games if you are subscribed.
Dolphin if you’re into GameCube games. I’ve played through all of Paper Mario and smugglers run on my phone. Now I’m spending a majority of my time in the original Animal Crossing.
Cat Bird is a very simple indie platformer that’s for free on the play store that ai kinda love alot. If you don’t mind doing some set up, emulation makes you phone a pretty solid portable console. On the ports side of things, Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night are pretty good games
I second catbird, and raise you heart star and the dangerous dungeon series.
Just found out that Wildfrost has an android port. It’s a really fun rougelite deck builder.
League of Legends Wild Rift is the only competitive mobile game I’m aware of that isn’t pay to win, it also happens to be well polished and v fun
If you have a Netflix subscription, the app lets you install many games that aren’t looking for microtransactions within.
Most of the Ace Attorney games are on smartphones.
I’ve also been having a lot of fun with Zenless Zone Zero. F2P, combat is based around swapping between a team of three, and making use of parry / dodge frame effects.
True surf is a dope surfing simulator. Only catch is that unlocking boards is an insane grind, but none of them are better or worse really just different.
ScummVM with a ton of classic adventures like Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle or Broken Sword.
Beneath a Steel Sky and Flight of the Amazon Queen are free.
If you want to play an RPG via ScummVM, World of Xeen is awesome.
Breakout 71. It’s a roguelike brick breaker. Quite addictive and well made.
Thanks for this, super enjoyable to play. Link for the lazy: https://renanlecaro.itch.io/breakout71

That sounds fun. Im gonna check that out.
Edit; THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS INTO MY LIFE

No, not really. This isn’t the platform you want for good games unfortunately.
Man, I’m replying to you just to entice you to come back and re-read this thread. Just for your own good, in case you were the first one to post for some reason.
