Curious if anyone has any good mobile games.

I need a couple mobile games to play while I’m putting the kids down. Something that can be done with one hand and doesn’t require a ton of patience.

I’m the past i loved

Idle Dyson sphere

In to the breech

Tower defense

FTL

Need something similar

Not quite what you were after, but can be “played” with one hand.

Did you ever play @Az_F achievement games?

One handed because the other is usually occupied holding a child.

Strap a wearable PC to your hip and walk around playing armagetronad. Only need two keys.

Is that cheating?

Exactly! Like the Mann!

Funny, I was about to reference him on your recent post on account of his sousveilance.

If you liked FTL and Into the Breach, you’ve got great taste — both of those are amazing games for strategy fans. For something that works well one-handed and doesn’t demand too much focus, you might enjoy:

  • AFK Arena – idle mechanics but with surprisingly deep strategy once you get into it.

  • Cell to Singularity – a chill idle game about evolution and technology; oddly addictive.

  • Mini Metro – minimalist, relaxing, but still makes you think. Perfect if you’ve only got a few minutes.

  • Mindustry – if you liked Dyson Sphere, this scratches a similar automation itch.

  • Infinitode 2 – probably one of the best mobile tower defense games out there.

All of these can be played in short bursts and don’t require constant attention — ideal for when you’re multitasking.

Carmageddon - just a normal race game​:smirking_face: with 5 other car lovers, and lots of pedestrians around. Still have it on my old phone, but because its no longer updated, it doesn’t install on newer phones :cry:.

Plague Inc. - fight against a pandemic, research cures… or become a pandemic and try to wipe out the planet.

Pocket tanks - old style arcade 1v1. 2 tanks shooting over a mountain

So far this is a gem. I wish the docs were better at explaining some of the tiles
