I need some new games in my phone. I checked out the recommendations in the google play store just to realise, that they all suck. So I’m asking you, what are some lightweight(my phone is really slow so anything not lightweight will either take 40 years to load or outright crash every few minutes) fun mobile games you can recommend.
If you can handle frustration or know that a rogue-like is for you: Shattered Pixel Dungeon
Shattered pixel dungeon is awesome. Definitely frustrating, and has a bit of a learning curve but it’s rad. Infinite replay value
Definitely a hard but fun game. I think I’ve made it to the 3rd zone/layer/whatever only once and died like a floor later. Absolute hype moment.
Fantastic game, but it’s got major issues with the controls on mobile. It’s extremely easy to accidentally tap a spot you did not mean to and ruin the entire run or just outright die from the single simple mistake. The dev does not seem to care much about implementing better controls for mobile, because it’s a desktop game first and foremost. Nor does the dev care to implement anything that would allow a person to undo an action or make it easy to copy/edit a save file and manually fix the mistake because something like those things could be used to cheat.
So, as long as you’re okay with those frustrations, it’s an amazing game.
Respectfully, my experience has been very different. I’ve been playing exclusively on mobile for years and have not had more control issues than any other mobile app/game. Worst case, you start a new run; that’s the beauty of roguelikes.
Respectfully, just because you’ve not had issues does not mean others have the same experience as you. I’ve brought this up in the Lemmy community and others have said they have this issue as well. https://lemmy.world/post/16954185
Also, “Worst case you start a new run” is not a great argument against implementing better mobile controls. It’s really disheartening when you’re really enjoying a run and you’ve spent a good amount of time on it all to go completely down the drain because of a small mistake that could be prevented with better controls.
No worries, I was just giving another perspective. Of course your experience could be different.
I figured someone would already have beat me to this suggestion. The dev specifically keeps the compatible with older devices. There’s a community on Lemmy: [email protected]
