Currently it's Theotown, which is basically SimCity but with very fair monetization and it has plugins.

It seems like you like puzzle games, so I would suggest Pic-a-Pix, Trees and Tents, and Hashi.

Nothing particularly unique - Stardew Valley, Minecraft: Java Edition, Minetest, Hill Climb Racing, Vector Pinball, Geometry Dash, Cookie Clicker, Crash Bandicoot through Lemuroid, 2048

Muscar OP ,

Geometry dash is special, I remember playing it in its first years back in 2013-2015. It was cool then but never super popular, but man have they worked on it and made one of the coolest and most powerful level editors ever. Haven't played it myself since back then but my younger half-brother and all his friends are crazy about it, and I keep up to date with the unbelievable levels people make. And the frame perfect world records.

i've severely pruned my games list over the years. the ones which still survive are simon tatham's puzzles, lichess, forkyz (from f-droid), chess pro, 6 takes, pudding monsters hd, unblock me premium.

that last one, quite appropriately, is played during the morning loo session.

Typically I don't, but in the past Duet was great, except I finished the game.

Auralux and SwordandGlory are the only two I ever open these days.

nexussapphire , in What games do you play on your phone?

Maybe I'm weird but I don't. I miss those days of genuine well crafted smartphone games you bought once and played.

I bought the games I played but I guess a few bucks was too much for most people. It's just not worth shoveling through garbage to find a few gems when I could spend my time doing anything else. My iPod touch was my DS back in the day.

I don't really play games but I do have Antimine that I use occasionally.

Muscar OP ,

Gonna check it out! I have a LOT of hours in Minesweeper - The Clean One and they look very similar from just the screenshots. But animation and feel play a big part in minimalist stuff. Thanks for the recommendation!

PineRune , in What games do you play on your phone?

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.

Skyhighatrist ,

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)

A_Very_Big_Fan ,

GBA emulator + Fire Emblem ROMs ftw

PineRune ,

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.

I prefer action games. I quite enjoyed the Space Marshalls series.

pineapplelover , in What games do you play on your phone?

Clash Royale mostly and sometimes the Alto's series

MrFappy , in What games do you play on your phone?

Marvel Snap. It’s the best strategic card game I’ve ever played, although the meta bullshit does tend to get old.

Psychodelic , in What games do you play on your phone?

Every single color made by Barte Bonte. I'm really hyped for Purple to come out.

Start with Green

Psychodelic ,

I get down with some minesweeper too, every now and then

Muscar OP ,

Oh yeah, been deep into minesweeper a couple of times through the years. Specifically love Minesweeper - The Clean One. Very well designed both in UI and UX.

Psychodelic ,

That's the one! It's so cool. I was hooked for a good bit when I first tried it out. It's so damn satisfying to use

Muscar OP ,

Oooh, I've tried those games, think I finished the first two but just forgot about them. Thanks for the reminder! Definitely picking up the rest.
