Fools quest I know but I’m wondering if there are any good, native games that I can play on my android handheld
Edit: I forgot but controller support is also needed.
- Magic Survival (Bullet Heaven)
- Eternium (Action RPG)
- Bombsquad (Idk what genre this would fit in lol) 🟢
- I Love Hue and it’s sequel (Color based puzzles)
- Heroism and Impossible Dungeon (Idle/incremental) first one is singleplayer, second one is mostly singleplayer but has pvp tournaments were you compete to be the first on a leaderboard.
- Slipstream (Multiplayer idle?) best played if you’re watching the stream of the person who’s the captain.
- Dungeon Faster (Dungeon crawler, deck builder)
- Apocalypse Heroes (Top-down shooter)
- Vampire Survivors (Bullet Heaven) 🟢
- Brotato (Bullet Heaven) 🟢
- 20 Minutes Till Dawn (Bullet Heaven) 🟢
- Halls of Torment (Bullet Heaven) 🟢
- Dungeon Quest (Action RPG) 🟢
- Death Road to Canada (Roguelite, survival) 🟢
- Infinitode 2 (Tower Defense)
- Meteorfall: Journeys (Deck builder, roguelite)
- Meteorfall: Kurmit’s Tale (Deck builder, roguelite)
- Super Auto Pets (Auto-chess, asynchronous pvp)
- SAS 4 (Coop top-down shooter)
- Outfire (Top-down battle royale)
Edit: added a green emoji for the games that have controller support.
I want to add Katawa Shoujo for those who might enjoy visual novels
Sky: Children of Light is a delightful game from the creators of Journey, and plays sort of like a Journey MMO
It has a splendid soundtrack featuring vocals from the ever talented AURORA, and beautiful visuals. It is also a great social experience, putting a focus on fostering connections and community. It gets regular content updates and its just super cozy!
I am not really into racing games but I tried super tux cart and it was fun. It has an android version.
- OpenTTD: Open Source and available for free.
- Settlers 2 via some DosBOX version. Back when I still used Android I used Dosbox Turbo, but it seems to have been removed from the Play Store. No clue which DosBOX build for Anrdoid is good nowadays…
- 2048: Open Source and free puzzle game
- Threes: Puzzle game similar to 2048
- Cogs: Puzzle game. No clue how to find it on the play store, but it’s available at humblebundle.
- Slay the Spire: Deck Builder roguelike.
- Space Chem: Zachlike puzzle game. (Actually not only zachlike - it’s form zachtronics)
and basically any Android game that ever was part of a Humble Mobile Bundle. Those happened before Humble Bundle was sold and consequently became boring.
What kind of handheld, what genre, open source or anything goes…?
There are many decent games, as in “none or optional ads, not pay to win”. Some P2W can be played up to a certain point before they become obnoxious.
Recently I’ve been playing casual/idle ones:
- Rush Royale
- Raid Rush
- Pocket Champs
- Capybara Go
Before that, I went through a phase of RTS:
- Last War
- Top Heroes
- Million Lords
Before that… don’t remember anymore, I keep switching genres every few months 🤷
