I would say that most are subpar. If you are looking for a recommendation then I've been playing Orna (search on the play store) forever now and it's a great time. As hardcore or casual as you like with an overall great community and a developer that is active and engages with us.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

I would just like to share Cat Bird with all of you. An excellent mobile first platformer that shows that on screen buttons can work.
Highly recommend Dawncaster if you like Slay The Spire / deck builders. I think I paid $6 for it and I've probably played 40 hours or so. Just an honest to goodness straight up good game that happens to be on mobile.
No gache/gems/freemium nonsense/etc.
There's an Android app called "minireview" which has tons of reviews of games on Google Play and helps filter out the garbage.
I once had an android port of dune 2,I think it was of questionable legality licence wise.
I don't remember if it was in the store or if I loaded it.
I lost it's source but later another version surfaced, but didn't work as well.
I played through all houses twice each on mobile. Was a great time remembering my 1990's gaming.
Mmm.. I think I have that apk on my phone. Works wonderfully. There's a little button in the top left to purchase tanks but it doesnt work.
Postknight :D
Might not be your cup of tea, but I like Dungeon Village 2.
Sounds like Kairosoft?
Yep.
Moonshades on android is a good knock off of heros of might and magic
No, you se-
Almost
Yes.
Yes they are.
Stay away from them on the whole, don't even bother discovering games through lists of mobile titles. Disregard any list that shows games that were not made mobile-first as a counter-example, those miss the point of the question.
If you are into racing games, I can recommend these confidently:
- Rush Rally 3
- GRID Autosport
Both are quite challenging.
I have exactly one game on my phone. Bloons Tower Defense 6. Without a doubt a great game!
The answer to everyone looking for a new game is Super Snail, I believe full release is Aug 4th? Enjoy!
Been playing Oddmar, a fantastic platformer on iOS.
It’s fun to play on the phone, but getting a controller and playing on the iPad is chef’s kiss
