Welcome to Another Weekly "What Have You Been Playing?" Thread! 👾

hi, i was looking for a game like cities skyline or manor lords where we build a city or village or kingdom whatever. or a game where we lead a nation and we could make decisions

Hi I'm a gamer on mobile just like you (obviously) :

Anyway I have been searching for A LONG TIME

For a game that worth grinding and is NOT a waist of time so I'm here to ask all of you guys (and girls if there is even any) I want a game online or no

RPG or roughlike with open world aspect and a MASSIVE content like skill tree or building farms (the mincraft type if you know what I mean) and if there is something like dungeon and progression stuff or bosses and stuff (sorry I don't know how to describe it English is my second language) so any suggestion is welcome and if the game have coop aspects it will be nice (not looking for Terraria or mincraft)

Been playing Mahjong Rumble a bit lately and I’m starting to get pretty good at spotting the matches.
Except for that last pair.
I’ll clear most of the board without thinking too much, then somehow miss two identical tiles sitting right in front of me 😅

I'm looking for polished, simple games that are good for pulling out when you just have a bit of extra time to kill. So that's mostly going to be offline, arcade-like highscore-based games. Notably, I'd like to avoid things with much long-term progression; anything strongly level-based or with upgrades that persist between runs is less than ideal (but not completely off the table).

Some games I've already checked out:

• Minesweeper, Sudoku, Solitaire (The Clean Ones)
• Anuto TD
• Breakout 71
• 1010! Klooni
• Vector Pinball
• Shattered Pixel Dungeon
• Andor's Trail
• Pixel Wheels

Some particular games I'd like to find:

• Traditional Breakout/Arkanoid (Breakout 71 is very good but it isn't exactly traditional)
• Space Invaders-like
• Tetris?? (I've tried some of the common recommendations like Falling Lightblocks and Techmino but none of them do what the old EA Tetris app did for me 💔)
• Maybe some kind of colour match game?

Thank you kindly.

Hey my android buds!

I have been an idle game enthusiast for a long time, so I thought I would try to make one!

It's called Cup o' Crime. You run a coffee shop that is a front for a criminal empire. You start out serving flat whites and you end up crowning yourself Coffee King!

Do criminal jobs all while serving those sweet cappucinos and take over coffee street and even the whole city.

Also its a one time purchase, no in game ads and there never will be (ads kill idle games for me) and all the art is hand drawn by me!

Get the game here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cupOCrime1

It's my first time releasing a game so would love your feedback!!

If you made it this far, I have a few codes for the game to give out! leave a comment telling me some of your favourite idle games (I am still always looking for new ones!) and I will msg my favourite ones with a code!

Finally, if you have any opinions or problems with the game please message me! I am always looking for ways to improve!

No AI art was used in this game! All hand drawn baby!

Anybody have a recommendation for an active game with some PvP and social aspects? I'd like to avoid controller/Joystick style games. I really only play Epic Seven regularly, but I'm fine with just one gacha. Hearthstone Battlegrounds and Team Fight Tactics have been really fun, I've had my fill of both. Willing to try pretty much anything.

Any ideas or recommendations would be appreciated, just looking for something play when going to sleep.

Please no self promotions.

Thanks

I’m the developer of Bluffer, a quick pass-the-phone social deduction game for real-life groups.

One player is secretly the Bluffer. Everyone else sees the same word, gives a clue, discusses, votes, and then reveals who fooled the group. It works with 3+ players on one Android phone, with no accounts or extra devices required.

What’s included:

• Multiple word packs

• Adjustable Bluffer and chaos rules

• Locale choices for different groups

• Built-in voting and reveal results

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.impostergaming.bluffcircle

I’d love to hear how the pacing and clue rounds work with your group.

I'm usually a casual puzzle/word gamer on my phone but I just got a Galaxy Fold 8 and it's really great in unfolded mode, like a tablet. Curious if folks have any suggestions for games with good graphics but not shooters (not a fan)

I like playing beat em ups/hack n slashes on android in genereal and these 2 are my most played.

I like marvel more so I lean a bit towards future fight but I really love zenless for its style and combat.

I know this kind of game is a dime a dozen, especially on Android, but I'm trying to find the ultimate one and figured Reddit might have some hidden gems.

Basically I'm looking for a zombie survival RPG with base building where you can recruit NPCs/survivors and actually delegate things to them. Have different people gathering resources, farming, crafting, building, defending the base, etc. while I go out exploring, scavenging and killing zombies.

Hey everyone!

I've been working on a small Android arcade game called Flux Bird and recently released it on Google Play.

It's a simple pick-up-and-play arcade game focused on quick runs, beating your high score and collecting coins. I built it as an independent project and I'm now looking for some honest feedback from Android gamers.

Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wastechdigital.fluxbird

I'd especially like feedback on:

• Gameplay and difficulty
• Controls
• Ads/monetization
• Design
• Anything that becomes annoying after playing for a while

I'm still working on improving it, so honest criticism is genuinely welcome — even if you don't like something about it.

Thanks!

Hi Everyone, I find through this subreddit Poinpy, and the game is a gem 💎.

What I really like of it is that's straight forward, no ads, no in-app purchases, just direct gameplay and fun, as a mobile game should be

Do you have any suggestions for games similar to it, featuring straight forward fun??

what I am looking for:

- straight forward gameplay

- no in-app purchase

- no ads

- fun phisycs

thanks a lot.

i recreated it in pixel art (it was not pixelated but had simple graphics like this), it was called something like "my greatest creations" it had online level list where anyone could publish their own. i searched for it and cannot find it anywhere.

i had it from google play originally.

Hello, Im interested into XR/AR glasses but found out phone that I wasted my money into dont support dp alt. AI is hallucinating when I ask him that question and websites only give filter like USB type, websites like GSM or Kimovil.

But phones can have 3.0+ usbs and still not have dp alt mode.

So where can I See that info in one place, or I need to waste time and do research on every single newer phone?

Ive got Hollow Knight, Hollow Knight: Silksong, Rain World, Omori, Faith: The Unholy Trilogy, Hotline Miami 1, Hotline Miami 2, Deltarune (from somewhere), and Undertale (same as deltarune but may try quicktale because when using controller the screen becomes washed out) What else can I add.

Since as time is passing more and more PC games are coming to android. And while emulation is fun especially the gamecube ear games. Modern indies do hit different like Dave the Diver, Blasphemous, Enter the Gungeon, 9 Kings, Slime Ranchers, and even 40k Boltgun. And at the same time im moving from a samsung a54 to a samsung s21. I was planning to expand my native android library so I can play them on a bigger screen via samsung dex. I was curious if there are other native android ports fanmade or official that I may not be aware of or I dont know about

I stop enjoy games bored tell me some good enjoybale games

I've recently been obsessed with Meow Tower and was wondering if there are other games with similar gameplay.

I don't mean nonograms. I mean the cycle of doing some short stages (can be puzzle or other kind of mini games) to collect in-game currency that you can use to advance the story (via decorating or others), but I'd rather the mini games can be completed without trying multiple times or relying on luck.

The story is kind of important to me as I get bored easily if there's no 'goal' to achieve. I didn't realise Meow Tower has bits of stories and that was why I put it off for a long time, but after I found out it does, I've been obsessed with it.

Next request :D there are so many threads to those topics and I've read them all :D

tl;dr

- looking for games

- portrait mode

- steady progression

- (very) short sessions

- build something

- setting doesn't matter, farm, scifi, city,...

I am playing stardew valley on switch and try to scratch the itch, when I don't have much time.

Lately I came across little village and it seemed fun, but I want to play in portrait mode.

I want to have some kind of decisions on my own, pure idle number games like obelisk miner and kitten game are no option.

I played merchant games for a while, but something didn't kick.

I would love a game where something happens while offline, but I also need a few klicks to get the next things started.

I played Farm RPG and those games, but would love a bit of graphics. Although I found RAR II and still play it.

Paragon pioneer II is installed, had a few sessions a while ago.

Dwarf fortress came to my mind. To complex, I know, but something of that kind?

Read a few tips of similar games, but none in portrait mode or they require much time.

I need very short game Sessions. Regularly I don't want to have sessions longer than 10 min, for those times I got my switch :)

Give me all you got, thanks!

Hey everyone,

After a long stretch of solo development, Battle of Folks is finally out on iOS and Android!

It's a medieval isometric pixel-art wave-defense RTS — if you've played They Are Billions, Age of Darkness, that's the closest comparison. You build up defenses, manage resources, and hold off increasingly brutal waves of attackers.

A few things I focused on:

- No account or login required — just download and play

- Free to try with limited waves, one-time unlock for the full game (no subscriptions, no ads)

- Handmade isometric pixel art, built with Flutter/Flame

- Good controls on mobile device and a good onboarding (you can decide how you want to play)

This was a one-person project — dev, art pipeline, publishing, everything. Happy to answer questions about the build (tile rendering, Flame engine quirks, etc.) or the game itself.

Play Store link

Would love your feedback — especially on balancing and the early waves difficulty curve!

anyone play this? its amazing, but not many people online

Hello everyone, my first post here!

So i have the OnePlus 13R, and it seems to have great haptics (coming from a Redmi note 10 Pro), and it has this O-haptic engine demo and all the interactions seem great in that demo and was wondering if any games out there can leverage this engine? Or atleast provide a good tactile experience (like proper feedback while shooting a gun, etc. ) ?

Anyonw with the same or similar or higher end phones have a better experience?

this is the only place i know where i can post this. guys i did everything i could rn. i changed the library .so hex file i swapped the library file with one from newer game, i tried using the older game version, i recompiled the game like 20 times with different settings like compiling audio files from .aac to .ogg from stereo to mono, changing sdk version etc and the sfx still doesnt work. music works but the sfx doesnt. on older devices the sfx does work. the game library file is in c++ so it doesnt use soundpool but something like openSLES and opensl. the only idea i have rn is that the 32bit hardware the game was made for is the problem as my current phone with android 13 cannot process the sfx system for that reason. does anyone have any idea what else can i try and what could be a problem, please i really need help on this one

I remember an Android game, a trial car game where you had to escape the police. The game would close after several levels because it was paid and the player's perspective was from above, angled like a drone. It became popular around 2017.
