What the title says. I got a new phone for Christmas—a modern model (released last year). While I'm known to be an avid gamer, I've never played much on mobile phones. So, once again, I'm reaching out to the Hexbear collective for help. What are some good, fun, or addictive games for phones? The only things I don't care for are rhythm or puzzle games. I'm interested in everything, from games you can play for 10 minutes while waiting for a call to games you can play daily.
Also I already played a ton of Vampire Survivors on Pc so no need to recommend that.

get an emulator and some game boy advance games. i've been playing emerald rogue and having fun, and the gba fire emblems are all good
and the gba fire emblems are all good
Adding to the GBA tactics games - Advanced Wars 1&2, and Tactics Ogre: the Knight of Lodis (this is a spinoff of the original Tactics Ogre that got a recent remaster).
Emulate some classic games. Did you know Dolphin is on Android now, and you can emulate everything from the GameCube and Wii on the go?
I like hoplite, fun tactics rougelike. I've only played the free version (which eventually gets old) but the paid version (like $5 or something), adds more features and areas to go through
Kinda of a spiritual successor to Chrono Trigger. It has a gacha component but you can complete the main game without spending money.
I would get a transfer code and write that down. Their updates can bug out sometimes.
If you enjoy games like dota or lol then Pokemon Unite was pretty fun when I still played it
If you like civ5, unciv is great, but also consider that it’s open source and the tail end of the game/features may not be implemented yet.
If you haven't played it on PC slay the spire is my goat. I couldn't tell you another game I've 100%'d. I think ive put in like 200 hours.
Someone mentioned desert golfing here a few years back. I still play it now. It's so minimal. No settings. No music. Just get the ball in the hole. You can play it for 30 seconds or 30 minutes.
Everyone does it differently bit I'm a bit more selective about games I play on my phone. I've done some roms/emulators but I'd rather just play those on my computer. I only like games that I can go into or drop at a moments notice.
Every single mobile game I know and loved is lost to time. These days i just play cod mobile, decent game for the shitter if you have internet.
