Fools quest I know but I’m wondering if there are any good, native games that I can play on my android handheld

Edit: I forgot but controller support is also needed.

    Balatro. I only own it on Android. I don’t think the experience is significantly reduced on Android as opposed to PC/other platforms.

      People on Steam are complaining about their antivirus freaking out about this game. While that’s the PC version, this isn’t exactly a good look, especially not on a F2P game.

      Simon Tatham’s Puzzles is my go-to. No art to speak of, but it just does what it’s supposed to and you’ll quickly find a few favorites. No fluff, no ads, nothing to annoy or distract from the gameplay.

      This is interesting, it looks like a remake of Alto’s Adventure. The control sensitivity takes a moment to get used to, but the background is just as nice as the original, and the music is indeed relaxing

    Pokemon TCGP if you’re into that sort of thing. It starts with just collecting, but after a while you’ll be able to battle.

    Slice and Dice. Turn based RPG dungeon fighter where your party are all unique dice that you can modify with items and such. The interface is super slick and well done.

    I’ve put in hundreds of hours and I’m going to likely be putting in hundreds more. Well worth the price!

    In the end I just settled with the logic based ones like minesweeper and sudoku. F-droid has a good version each (and more than one maybe).

    PlanetCon is a decent strategy game on its basic settings. I haven’t customised it but have had a fair amount of fun in it. But it is nothing perfect, do not expect too much out of it. If you learn how to not attract the ire of all AI opponents simultaneously though, you can have short bursts of decent strategy enjoyment.

    I don’t know much about android handhelds or anything, but I feel like Mindustry on F-droid could be a fun game. No idea if the device is touchscreen, nor if there are physical controls whether they’ll work natively.

    Sky: Children of Light is a delightful game from the creators of Journey, and plays sort of like a Journey MMO

    It has a splendid soundtrack featuring vocals from the ever talented AURORA, and beautiful visuals. It is also a great social experience, putting a focus on fostering connections and community. It gets regular content updates and its just super cozy!
