      I usually play on and off. My wife saw me playing and got it, now she’s addicted. Our son saw that I had it on the switch too and started to play it this weekend. Now they are Stardew crackheads.

      We’ve started it with my girlfriend, both on Android, and we’re hooked. We’re even considering buying the PC version for the multiplayer features.

    The only commercial Android game I regularly play is Wordscapes. It’s an almost embarrassing level of enduring basic bitch addiction, I don’t engage with any microtransaction bait, I have a systemwide ad blocker… and I love it.

    Otherwise it’s all Emulators and Open Source (covered well elsewhere in this thread).

    Here’s my games folder:

    Finding mobile games that aren’t live service garbage is tough but at least a lot of good PC games just port to android.

      Here’s mine. Ignore the background.

      Yep, there’s a grass touching simulator. I mostly play Bus Simulator: Ultimate, though it gets my battery temperature to 55°C. Enough to hurt on fingers.

    Orna RPG! It’s a GPS game like Pokemon Go with a classic RPG style, no pay to win options, a great community, and Devs who listen to feedback with regular updates.

    Genuinely the best GPS game I’ve played by a long shot.

        Puzzle game where you push blocks around. Blocks with words can be pushed together to change game behavior. For example on a level with Baba, Is, and You blocks together let you control your character (your character is named Baba). But if you push a block that says Door in front of the Is and You blocks you will suddenly control the doors instead of Baba. It’s a really cool concept and the levels get extremely imaginative. And also difficult

    Rhythm games, especially Phigros and COXETA. I also like the mobile port of Portal Knights, even if it is inferior compared to the other versions, and the developers have dropped this port.

    My favorite Android game has always been, and still is, OSMOS. It used to be in the play store. You can still get it on Android from Hemisphere. There’s also iOS, Ipad, Steam (for Linux), OS X and Windows versions. I love this game so much I keep an ancient 7" pad with Marshmallow 6 offline just for it (Because I had the original on it - You don’t need an ancient device).

        It has quickly become one of my favourite games when I started playing a few months back. I mainly play on PC with a few QoL mods, but I think it works great on a smart phone as well! Great game to have in your pocket! The only bad thing I’ve encountered on Android, is that the cursor in the menu does not become visible when you’ve a controller connected. It’s there, but you can´t see it. Kinda annoying, but I could fix this by forcing it with a mod (I forgot which one, but I can look it up if you want). It’s one of my favourite games to play when I just want to chill without thinking too much.

    Shattered Pixel Dungeon, Endless Sky, and Mindustry (especially that last one, which I haven’t seen anybody else mention yet).

    I get all my games from F-Droid, not any commercial app store.
