Stardew Valley. Loved to play it on long haul flights, doesn't need Internet.

Dead Cells! Best mobile port of a PC/Console game I've ever encountered.

[–] Cayenne05dingos@geddit.social 1 points 1 year ago

I put it on my list, do you have any online multiplayer games you like?

[–] Damino@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As a Final Fantasy fan, I've been buying games on PC instead of mobile when I have the choice, but I just started Final Fantasy Dimensions the other day, which is exclusive to iOS and Android, and I'm having a good time.

Nice ill check it out!

I really like Data Wing. Cool top-down 2D arcade racing game with a cool story, free with no ads. It's obvious a heap of passion was poured into the game. Still my favourite mobile game.

EDIT: I use Android so I'm not sure it's on the Apple Appstore but I don't see why it wouldn't be

[–] Cayenne05dingos@geddit.social 1 points 1 year ago

I verified its on the ios app store, last updated 4 years ago tho :/

Currently on my phone:

Civilization VI Civilization Revolutions 2 Into The Breach Mini Motorways Shovel Knight Dig Slay the Spire Grindstone

Osmos is a wonderful meditative game on iPad.

[–] oomphaloompha@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Ooh I totally forgot this one! Osmos is seriously an amazing game, one of my favorite games of all time.

Harry Potter: Magic awakened Looks to be pay to win, but that hasn't affected me yet. Kind of like Clash Royale

[–] oomphaloompha@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Pathos - Nethack Codex, a very playable traditional roguelike based on Nethack.

Unciv, an open-source Civilization V remake.

FTL plays great on the iPad

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

Great game, and sophomore release Into The Breach by the same studio is also available on iPad visa Netflix Games

[–] blast25@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

20 minutes till dawn. You kill stuff and build around your character trying to survive for 20 minutes.

[–] LukasT@feddit.dk 1 points 1 year ago

Slay the Spire has a decent iOS port

[–] Bells@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Slice and Dice is a very fun strategy rougelike, kind of a mix of DnD and Yhatzee.

I really loved Data Wing.

[–] philomory@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Dawncaster is excellent.

[–] fbievan@fedia.io 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shadow fight 2 (paid version) and also The Silent Age (thankfully Google bard reminded me of the name of this game)

[–] fbievan@fedia.io 1 points 1 year ago

These 2 games are by far the best mobile games I played

[–] kspatlas@fedia.io 1 points 1 year ago

Juno new origins is a good game, just make sure your ipad doesn't light on fire

[–] verycoolusername@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Waking Mars! An incredible short sci fi game with a nice story

[–] bl4kers@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

For reference, this game is only on iOS and PC (Steam/GOG)

[–] GhostMagician@beehaw.org 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I tried a lot, but what felt best was emulating Nintendo DS games that could be played entirely with a stylus. Touch friendly so feels native, but also has benefit of not having ads or attempts to up sell you on a bunch of items that has come to plague a lot of mobile games.

[–] Mot@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

I finally got around to emulating Breath of Fire 4, though I restarted to play on the computer since some friends were interested in watching.
