"If indie games are underreported, mobile games must be invisible" gamesindustry.biz/articles/2022-…
If the paragraph below is an example of the press picking up on mobile games, I'd rather they stay invisible tbh.
That being said, here's a bunch of actually good mobile games! 🧵 1/10
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 2/10
Auro by @DinofarmGames is a super-tight tactical roguelike you can play for years (I've been playing it for about 9 and still counting).
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 3/10
Seven Scrolls by @JesseVenbrux lets you create crazy combo chains of spells with weird triggers.
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 4/10
Good Sudoku by @helvetica and @games_by_jack makes Sudoku good which I didn't think was possible.
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 5/10
Michael Brough (@smestorp) made a bunch of ingenious mobile games. My personal favorite probably being 868-HACK. He also started a Patreon very recently by the way!
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 6/10
Arnold Rauers (@tinytouchtales) keeps putting out amazingly fun dungeon crawler-y variants of solitaire card games. Check out Card Crawl for a start and then get lost in the rest (with a brand-new one on the way already)!
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 7/10
At this point it's one of @dukope's lesser known games, but Helsing's Fire is still one of my favorite mobile puzzlers!
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 8/10
King of Dragon Pass (@radiofreelunch) isn't a mobile original, but was re-imagined so well on mobile that it's easily my favorite platform to play this unique gem of dynamic narrative and strategy on!
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 9/10
Card games work well enough on mobile, but the Meteorfall games (@slothwerks) are roguelike deckbuilders built for the platform. Meteorfall: Journey is a design masterclass in breaking down a genre, Krumit's Tale a meatier (meteor?) variant.
==ACTUALLY GOOD MOBILE GAMES== 10/10
Talking roguelike deckbuilders, @LegendaryFerret's Dream Quest got that whole ball rolling and remains of the genre's greatest to this day. If you're struggling with the graphics, I promise they disappear in system-y beauty after half a run!
