Enjoy Sudoku, CrossMe, Universal Paperclips. The first two I casually play now and then, the last one I obsess about and play nonstop to completion once or twice a year.
Occationally one of these physics mini-games:
- Soccer physics
- Wrestle jump 2
- Basic biking
And for a short (fart-joke) laugh:

(but that's Browser/Windows/Linux based - not Android directly)
P.S. Still searching for a modern Android port of Spaghetti and Marshmallows
Thank you for mentioning spaghetti and marshmallows, I never would've remembered that game otherwise! Too bad there's no version currently though.
I don't know if this counts, but on my old android tablet back in the day, I use to play Titanfall Assault (?)
Really never played a mobile game as fun as that. I miss it whenever I think about it.
My favorite game on Android is currently Krumit's Tale, followed by Shattered Pixel Dungeon.
Hole.io
It's completely ad-laden garbage but I looove the art style for some reason and the actual gameplay outside of the weird resource management shit they added to sell in-game currency is soooo satisfying.
Solomon's Keep and Solomon's Boneyard are fun
Unnamed space idle - an idle game that is completely free, without ads and more complex than normal idle games
You (and anyone reading) should replace 2048 with "threes". Its the original game that 2048 is based on (developer claims they never knew threes already existed but not sure about that), it has way more details and love aaaaaand it actually works as a game. In 2048 you win by going down,left,down,left,down,left, repeat until high score. In threes you actually have to think
In 2048 you win by going down,left,down,left,down,left, repeat until high score.
That's not true. But I can see how threes would be harder. There's also a similar game called "suika" or "fruit merge" that is quite fun.
I like unciv which is an open source clone of civ 5 I think. If you like games like Vampire survivors I would also recommend Magic Survival which to my knowledge is the or one of the first games in that style for mobiles
F-zero GX, lol
Been playing Open Sudoku, it's great
I would hate to know how many hours I've spent on this game. It's disgustingly addictive. I love it.
If you're open minded to emulation there are tons of options for consoles on android. The ones I use are AetherSX2 for PS2 games, myBoy for GBA, PPSSPP for PSP, and then if you want to get real crazy OpenMW for Morrowind and Winulator for 2000s era PC games (I have TESIV Oblivion running on a dog water Android phone at 30 FPS with Winulator).
My partner and I often collaborate on Lexica (basically Boggle but you can choose some game modes) while waiting for food in a restaurant. Sometimes also Lichess of late
Simon Tatham's puzzle game collection is already mentioned in the thread. I can only recommend it again
"Slay" is a paid little puzzle game that's a lot of fun (iirc like 5€ one time up front via Google Play). Very intuitive but I've not seen the concept before. The author made a bunch of small fun Windows games and ported this particular one to Android (maybe also available on the dark side, who knows). With a honorable mention of Antiyoy (expanding upon the concept) that you can also find there, the open source implementation is called Feudal Tactics
Didn’t read the description. Only the title. My answer: Detroit Become Human Alt answer: Custom Robo? Not sure it counts tho.
Chuzzle 2.
Shattered Pixel Dungeon may be the best android game available at the moment.
Over 300 items.
menopausal brain shuts down
Definitely this. I didn't think it would be so great. I can't stop playing lol, I suck at it too, but its so fun to die and try again.
It's had more constant tweaks than 99% of games.
Very refined and balanced.
The biggest tip I didn't know when starting, was to draw an enemy through a door and surprise attack them as they come through the door.

Now that they're out on mobile I gotta go with Subnautica and Little Nightmares
Unciv - Open source Civ game based on Civ V
mindustry is good
Also I'm playing Morrowind on OpenMW these days
Edit: And STK!
What?! That's hilarious that Morrowind can now be a phone game - I may have to try this soon!
Try the latest release of OMW on GitHub. F-droid one didn't work for me
https://github.com/xyzz/openmw-android
The source's archived but it's still playable
My most played android game is probably the port of Simon Tatham's puzzle games. It's available on GitHub, F-Droid or Google Play.
My other pick would be TIC-80, there's thousands of games on there
I got hooked on Net in Simon Tatham's, and wanted more features (sliding the board around in Wrapping mode, especially). Ended up at https://hexapipes.vercel.app/ which plays well enough in a mobile browser. Lots of tile shapes, sizes wrapping vs. regular.

For anyone interested: your have way more options for favorite game on Android than you think.
Emulation works great on modern phones. Eden emulator runs Switch games and some work very well with just touchscreen controls (e.g. Into the Breach).
If you're ok with on screen controllers or with carrying around something like an 8bit Zero 2or Micro, then you could emulate a mind-blowing number of consoles and games.
I was expecting some dlsite games since this has the NSFW tags.
I assume a mod tagged this as NSFW, b/c I didn't do it (intentionally anyway).
I find it odd, b/c if browsing this thread is not suitable for your workplace, then really browsing any thread at work is NSFW.
EDIT: I removed the tag. Hopefully it was just an accident on my part and mod doesn't get mad at me.
You shouldn't be playing mobile games at work. Therefore, NSFW
Mini metro has to be my top. Simple costs money so no ads (mandatory for me). You are basically just creating subway lines to move shares around and manage flow.

Happy to see a fellow Hashiwokakero enjoyer. ♥️
For free games, I would like to add Gobble (by Never Ads) to the list. Unfortunately, I cannot find it in Google Play Store right now.
For paid games, After, Inc. is pretty nice.
Slay the Spire
Polytopia
Bloons 6
LoLdle
How is the slay the spire Port on Android?
I have a couple hundred hours in the steam version, is the Android version as good.
Its the same game. The biggest issue I have is that my fingers move too fast and i play the wrong card sometimes.
Stardew valley is fairly solid
Terraria. It's $5.
- All the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_Escape games (Rusty Lake)
- SPACEPLAN (idle game with great scenario and great music)
- the Conceptis puzzles (free stuff for free)
- Desert Golfing, and Golf on Mars
- Sorcery 1, 2, 3... (choose your own adventure)
Magic survival
The game that inspired vampire survivors. Also it's way better than VS.
