Balatro is my new addiction but it drains my battery like no other.

Rogue like card game. It sounds horrible but I can't stop playing it.

It's 10 bucks, but no ads or bs

They don't exist.

Most of them are gambling with extra steps and boobs. The rest are predatory by design and there isn't much real game there.

The ones that don't fall into those traps have such terrible UX that they aren't worth playing.

If you must, Balatro has a mobile client and it's probably as good as it will get.

I was gonna say Hexic which is similar to the Xbox 360 puzzle game that game preinstalled. but it seems like it's been delisted and there's a free version with IAP. Are you on apple or android? apple arcade might be worth it because all the games are stripped of IAP/ad garbage.

Mobile gaming is kind of in a dire state unless you have a tolerance for ads or willing to shell out for stuff. game discovery is kind of hard on the Apple Store. So many goon recommendations never make it to the top, it's usually gardenscapes or royal match or some garbage that float up there.

e: Kairosoft games are still good. Game Dev Tycoon, Mega Mall Story, etc.

e2: There's also Dream Quest on the iOS App Store that's a rogue like card battler that's really good but has programmer art (which is kind of charming imo)

Slice & Dice is a goon-made game, available on Android, iOS and Steam!

It's a pretty good game.

Slice and Dice is great. No in-app purchases or anything like that, and tons of content. It's one of the few games I keep going back to, even after getting 100% completion.

Definitely Balatro. Even if you already own it on PC, you'll 100% stop playing it there and play on your phone instead. It's like it was always meant to be a phone game.

You don't need to root to install emulators. There's good ones for free on the google store right now, and a billion websites that carry ROMs
