    Sonic runners revival!
    It’s the full original Sonic Runners game that was discontinued by SEGA, but dedicated fans have revived it via reverse engineering the backend server responses and patching the app to point to their servers to keep the app running.

    Even though it’s “just” a mobile game, it’s surprisingly high quality, has a full blown story mode and even the multiplayer features still work!

    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

    These are the games I have installed

    Out of all of these if I weren’t always at home and had a controller with me it’s vampire survivor and dead cells. No controller, reigns.

    • Monument Valley 2 [paid] - amazing for relaxing
    • Standoff 2 - just a shooter game that doesn’t force all of the cases and levels and upgrading. It has those features, but I just open the game and start the match.
    • Falling Lightblocks - best Tetris clone.
    • Antimine - Minesweeper with ton of themes and settings. It’s FOSS but the Google Play version has ads, download from F-Droid.
    • Flowit (F-Droid ,GPlay) - simple FOSS game that melts my brain after first few levels.
    • Despotism 3k [paid] - great game. It’s pretty hard. Very funny too.
    • Mindustry (F-Droid, GPlay) - My brain is too small to understand this game. But it’s fun.

      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 did play Shattered pixel dungeon, then I tried the original pixel dungeon, and now, after finishing echo pixel dungeon, I’m going to try out remixed dungeon, summoning pixel dungeon, and serenity PD. IMO they’re all great, it’s just that pixel dungeon is the original and the rest are forks (better than knockoffs in the proprietary world)

    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!

    Super Auto Pets is really fun and laid back. Its very strategic and pretty mechanically deep, but you battle against teams that have been pre-recorded from other players, so you can close the game at any time and rejoin whenever you have downtime. Imo it’s the best parts of PVP and single player combined.

      I think half of my Lemmy posts are talking about SAP. It’s such a good autobattler. Just boiled the genre down to the key components

        I hope we will see a Holocure mobile version one day. i really like it, and it would be perfect to play on the go or in lunch break like vampire survivor.
