I haven’t had a lot of time to do much console gaming lately but I still would love to have a “go to” mobile game that I can whip out and progress a few levels or grind a few items or knock out a battle or match or two.

Interested to know what games have grabbed you and held your attention lately?

Slay the Spire. There's an iOS port of it which is well worth the money.

Love StS…it works so well on mobile!

I love Mini Motorways, but it requires an Apple Gaming subscription.

The other game I’ve been hooked on lately is Tiny Towers.
The good: it’s chill, and it doesn’t force any ads on you unwittingly. There’s even a setting to turn off video ad offers, which makes it even easier to avoid ads.

Downsides: it’s F2P with micro transactions. That being said, it’s 100% possible to play without paying a cent.

Vampire Survivors. Seriously, give it a try.

Slice & Dice is a turn based roguelite with dice. Super not talked about enough IMO.

I'm surprised Honkai Star Rail hasn't been mentioned. It's turn based and much less time consuming than the other popular Hoyoverse game, Genshin

Hook, a puzzle game, and Sudoku Mega Bundle, a sudoku app with a lot of gamemodes. 10/10 x2

All puzzle games by Rainbow Train and Hamster on Coke Games are my absolute 10/10 go-to mobile games. Hook 1 & 2, Klocki, Push, Up Left Out, Naboki, OXXO, Scalak. Also Traffix which is an arcade-puzzle mix.

None of them. Mobile games seem to be designed specifically to take as much money from people as possible for as little effort as possible. It’s like NFTs if they actually worked.

Bad mobile games that do what you say ruin the reputation of actually good mobile games!

This comment is exactly like when people say that X-genre of music is nothing but violence, or Y-race of humans are all rapists.

Saying they don't like the predominant form of mobile game monetisation is exactly like racism! Woof.

[–] LoFi-Enchilada@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah… one thing is to say that you don’t like something, and the other is to make an affirmation, throwing EVERYTHING into the same box because of your ignorance and laziness to actually have hands-on experience with the topic. Woof! 🐶

I think the difference is in the seriousness, mate. Mobile games haven't been cruelly repressed for hundreds of years. This is more like judging all books with a certain style cover the same way.

And who has been cruelly repressed for hundreds of years?
