Took some digging and I was incorrect. I was thinking of another modder.
Kukielle went from Skyrim mods to music: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqwchfbSVSfmpLMGe1fhE0w
“I poured many years of my life into this, just to feel empty. In quitting, I have found my real passion, and have been obsessively working on music. I’ve even released my first ever album, SPIDERWEB PRINCESS, which is filled with my darkest, most genuine feelings from all of my experiences. Nothing I’ve ever done has ever been so meaningful to me. I have so much of myself to share with the world, and I’d much rather be remembered for something I actually enjoy.”
Apparently her new passion is music. SPIDERWEB PRINCESS
Not really because it’s not one of those “you need to watch ads to get coins to advance” kind of games. It’s ability to enjoy without ads is still amazing. I also believe that ads in games are OK with minimal disruption, a perfect example is this game. Non intrusive, no banners, no season pass, no ads after or before a round, etc.
Recommendation: Survivor.io on mobile is freaking fun. Not really any ads either, unless you choose to watch them for more coin.
So you can set up some options. I have mine set where I can swipe up or down on left or right side and it pulls up this like… Rocket dock alphabet which you can find your apps. The whole thing, as another user posted, makes it so you don’t need an app drawer or a home screen. The home screen is your favorite apps. You can view messages if you set messages as your favorite app. Same with emails or discord etc.
After getting a replacement phone, I had to redo everything. I decided to check out some new options. I have nova prime and have loved it.
I am now using Niagara Launcher. It’s different. Very different. The team recommends using the app for at least a week to give it a true test run. I did have my doubts because it’s so different but dang do I love it. I haven’t switched back and I don’t mean this to throw shade on nova. Nova is great, but I like this better.
Instead of thinking of ways to change the launcher, they created a whole new launcher as if they didn’t take into consideration the current way we do things.
Give it a shot.

Duolingo - can learn languages yeah? I hope this qualifies. Not technically multi-player as you can’t “play” with other people. I’d also learn a language or a few within 5 years. I think you can play it offline assuming you have the necessary files downloaded.
Binding of Isaac - a fantastic rogue like where every game is different but you keep progression.
Factorio - haven’t played it, heard great things.
He’s going to have PTSD of that map and knows it better than the devs who made it.
