Unciv - FOSS Civilization-like game
I'm still routinely amazed Unciv is allowed to continue to exist, and that it's becoming so increasingly polished. It's not a perfect recreation of Civ 5, it probably never truly can be in terms of hardware limitations, but it's incredible just how damn close they've managed to get it.
It's also exceedingly dangerous for me, as someone who struggles with ADHD, to have Civ 5 on my phone. It has caused more than a few >30 minute bathroom breaks.
That said, I kinda wish the dev wouldn't push version updates for every single little thing. I can go weeks without most F-Droid apps needing to update, but I seem to get a notification to update Unciv like every 2 days.
If you get Fdroid basic or I think droidify you get auto updates without notifications. This is more of an app store issue than one with the unciv releases.
