Mindustry is a completely different (and much less frustrating) game on steam, for what it’s worth. Mostly due to the fact mouse+keyboard is MUCH more intuitive than touch controls. Also fun fact, as long as you’re running the same version, you can port your save game between your phone and your pc.
I find mobile games to be a crapshoot, and I’ve only ever found a select few hidden gems that are exceptions:
Play store does not allow me to download it on android 13 :( says it’s too new
?? they both work for me on android 13
I saw Slay the Spire mentioned exactly once, so I’m going to put the highlight on my current favorite mobile game:
Slay the Spire is a deck-builder roguelike that gives you a different experience every single game. It encourages broken mechanics and rewards inventiveness while having enough rng to feel like a fresh experience. It’s challenging enough to make winning feel like you earned it, but not so challenging that you can’t win if you really try.
The android version is a pay-once full port of the pc version, achievements and all. The touch controls are very well done. I’ve been hooked since 2020 when I discovered the game on steam.
It’s my favorite too! I never get bored because there’s always been strategies to explore. Also love that it’s offline so I can play anywhere, like a plane
Egg, Inc. - simple game, feels like the olden days but it’s also entirely modernised. Just recieved a tonne of qol enhancements.
If you are a regular player and got far enough to need a co-op, and play well. Hit me up!
I’ve got Morrowind on my fold3, it’s amazing
Oddly enough, two player game. It has some good one player player games built in
Do you have a link? Searching for “Two Player Game” results in what looks like lots of shovelware.
