I’ve ended up with a weird struggle on my hands. I’ve gotten to the point where I keep having small amounts of time I want to fill with a game. The trick is that I’m not at my computer (my main gaming platform), and I usually don’t have my 3DS with me. This leaves cell phone gaming, something I’ve never been great at knowing jack and/or shit about.
No problem, I thought. I turned to Google Play. I figured I could look for a game that was new, but had an interesting concept. Maybe support an indie dev in the process.
Y’all, I was wrong. Google Play’s discoverability, at least on the mobile version, blows. Combined with the mobile game marketplace currently being a flood of weird clones of other mobile games I’ve never heard of, licensed junkware, and the like, I ended up coming up with nothing. Except that realMyst is available, which is awesome, but I don’t think it’s what I’m looking for right now.
I mean, I did find a “horse family” game where you stomp tigers to death. (What the HELL.)
So I turn to you, fine friends. What games do you recommend for Android? I’ve already played Monument Valley, Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, Star Realms, and PubG Mobile. This ideally would be a game that can be played with one hand, doesn’t require a ton of dexterity (I’m bad at touch screen joysticks), and won’t murder my battery in two minutes flat. Special note about card game recommendations: I’m open to card games, but I’d like to pre-veto Hearthstone and Magic. I also really dislike idle timer games.
With all that in mind, any thoughts? Thanks in advance!
Merge Dragons! The core is free-form match-3 with gorgeous graphics and bits of story piled on.
