I think like 98% of mobile games are pretty much trash, but there are some diamonds in the rough.
In the past I’ve enjoyed:
- Monument Valley
- 2048
- Fruit Merge
- Hashi
- Papers Please
- Baba is You
- Balatro
I’m getting bored of my usual picks lately. I’m looking for something that’s quick to jump in and out to pass the time, not something heavy. But hard puzzles or strategy totally fit!
Is the FF Tactics port good? Better alternatives?


I got hooked on Net in Simon Tatham’s, and wanted more features (sliding the board around in Wrapping mode, especially). Ended up at https://hexapipes.vercel.app/ which plays well enough in a mobile browser. Lots of tile shapes, sizes wrapping vs. regular.
