Warframe and Lotro are terminal illnesses for me. I’m never done playing them. It’s an endless cycle of dressing up a hobbit in Middle Earth or dressing up a Warframe in space.

Risk.

Not sure why though. I dislike Hasbro, the game isn’t particularly exciting, and I don’t like the monetization, but it’s relaxing for me. I haven’t spent a dime and I only play for 15-20 min/day, but I like it for some reason.

Likewise with Magic: The Gathering Arena. I don’t play as much recently, but I do like it.

Most of my time is spent playing older AAAs and indie games though.

Rocket League!

I’m glad I still have this on my Steam account, from before the buyout from Epic.

Game Of The Year 9 years running.

Pikmin Bloom. It helps me get up and walking and has guided me to cool local public art.

Recently got back into Dota 2. It’s still incredibly good!

A great power fantasy for the Grineer when I hit Steel Path lmao.

Maan, I remember hitting a WALL when I decided to take on SP earth with just excalibur, a braton, a lato, and a skana as a challenge. That challenge ended definitively when I hit an interception mission.

Really more space wizards these days, but I do like to sneak around in a spy mission from time to time…

I don’t remember when Alto’s Odyssey became free to play on Android, but it’s honestly such an amazing game. Its prequel is pretty nice too, but I like this one better.

I used to be addicted to Super Starfish too. I’m even pretty close to completing it, but just never had my chance to do so because… reasons. I would love to see this game on the Nintendo DS.

I played the original Sonic trilogy. It was fine, I guess.

The Dadish series was super annoying and very infuriating despite looking like something a child could complete in one sitting.

Bean Dreams was absolutely phenomenal, though. I loved every second of it. Why on earth did they have to take it down from app stores???

I played Okay. It was okay.

Bart Bonte’s “color” series of games are also pretty fun to play through. You actually can finish all of them in one sitting if you’re brainy enough to do so. I did. “Black” was my favorite, since you get a glimpse of the Belgian flag at the end (Bart is Belgian after all).

I even played Goat Simulator on mobile (not the sequel, the original). For some reason I enjoyed that one the most despite how very obviously limited the mobile version is.

Conclusion: I like very niche categories of mobile games.

Bart Bonte’s games are really satisfying. The only one I didn’t personally care for as much is Sugar Game, but all of the colors are fun little puzzle games.

I especially remember playing the Flash version of Sugar Game a while back, it was my earliest memory of that guy. But yeah, that game specifically wasn’t my favorite, but it was still pretty nice especially with the calm soundtrack that plays in the levels.

Gumballs and Dungeons is a fun roguelike gacha. The main game loop is picking a Gumball which have different stats and mechanics and diving a Dungeon which has different enemies and mechanics. So you want to synergize your gumball with your strategy for a particular dungeon. Each floor of a dungeon is a 6x5 tile map and you flip the tiles looking for the down exit. There’s a boss every so many floors and just try to go a deep as you can. At the end of the run you keep some of the stuff you collected to unlock new dungeons and gumballs.

Another Eden is a gacha RPG from the writer and composer of sony enix dream team; chrono series, xeno series, final fantasy. There is so much content there and a ton of crossovers with other franchises. The map movement is done really well here for a mobile targeted rpg, it’s slightly elevated from a side scroll perspective and you mostly move horizontally in lanes with vertical connections here and there to switch between lanes. The writing is great, the music is great, the battle mechanics can get really deep.

I never could get into World of Tanks. It always seemed interesting but didn’t grab me.

I gotta get back into World Of Warships tho that game is neat.

I much preferred the older versions of WoT them the current version which is more arcade first person shooter like.

I’ve played a bunch of warships also.

Warframe and Warthunder. Lot of war happening, now that I think about it.

I’m starting to get a bit burnt out on Warthunder, though.

I think, so yeah. Warframe tends to polarize people- a lot of the time people either enjoy it a lot or hate it a lot and it just depends on your preferences. I think it’s because of how grindy it is while it simultaneously has a very ridiculous amount of depth. That’s a downside to a lot of people, but it’s kinda entirely why I play the game.

The most important thing I can suggest is that when you have questions, ask someone. Either a friend that’s knowledgeable, youtube, or hell just ask in Q&A chat. Don’t just try to figure it out- that’s probably not going to end well. The new player experience is miles better than when I started, but it’s still kinda rocky. Things aren’t explained incredibly well.

If you try it and end up having questions feel free to toss me a DM- I’m happy to help a new player out however I can.
