    • Baba Is You
    • Stardew Valley
    • WalkScape
    • A Little to the Left
    • Wagotabi

    I’m also fond of Hungry Cat Picross and LogicWiz Sudoku, but I’m sure there are other good apps for these games.

      All of them (some of which I like and played) are old or look old.

      Nothing wrong with looking old, especially when we talk about indie games, but that’s not the peak android gaming experience I was expecting years ago.

        That makes sense because I like pixel art. If you’re into polygons you might want to check out:

        • Diablo Immortal
        • Genshin Impact
        • Honkai Star Rail
        • Pascal’s Wager
        • Black Desert Mobile
        • Grid Autosport
        • XCOM 2
        • Delta Force

        And soon Warframe. You can pre-register to be notified when it releases.

          I would suggest removing genshin impact from the list and insert Wuthering Waves instead. It’s a copycat that improves on every aspect if GI, while also being somewhat better game in general:

          • less grid from devs, more primogems for gacha
          • fight mechanics improved, they include parry and perfect dodge
          • better graphics and physics, even on similar device (due to using UE5, instead of Unity)
          • gamepad support on all devices
          • CUTSCENES CAN BE SKIPPED

          Honestly, considering both games have shitty story telling and shitty story that no one cares about in general, just the last point should make Wuwa superior. The fact that genshin impact devs aren’t adding dialog/cutscenes skip button, while providing shittiest “stories” written by 5 years old, for every minor quest in the game — infuriating me.

            2025 Warframe and 2013 Warframe are very different animals. The game just got a massive update.
