And almost none of them were made for Android; they're ports of actual games.
It's like back in the 80s, when games had amazing hand-drawn covers and then the graphics was just text or simple shapes, but now with gameplay.
And then there was MegaMan's cover.
Those AD&D Dragonlance games from the 90s had such killer box art lol, especially for the time!
Cover of the first one:
Game graphics:
That was different though. Nobody was expecting such graphics back then.

It's a shame because there's quite a few games with big potential that could be just small fun game you pullout in the waiting room but then is riddled with ads and micro transactions and the cheapest engaging stuff they could make.
I'mma be real the ad doesnt look too fun either.
