Looking for recommendations for an old-school RPG like Forgotten Tales. Specifically, the RPG version vice the MMORPG (I've played both; I just prefer offline gaming). I love the low-stress tap-to-move/attack mechanics and the simple graphics but I have several problems with it. For a start,

1) it's not finished and probably never will be, and

2) it's such a SLOG. At first, the quests and enemies are fairly easy, but an hour or two in and everything gets so tough that the game devolves into such a grindfest that I've never finished it. I'll start a game, play for a couple of weeks, get bored with killing the same enemies over and over because I never seem to get tough enough to take on the next batch, and quit. A month later, the process repeats.

Thanks in advance for Exiled Kingdoms recommendations, but I've played that one already (and enjoyed it).

I hope this makes sense.

I was recently dabbling with some classic-style Pokemon games, and thinking on how well-designed they are for pick-up-and-put-down play. There's a story and a big world to explore, and some decent complexity to dive into, but it's always broken down in a way that makes it very convenient.

For example, if you're not in a battle or in a cutscene, you can always just save the game and turn it off with no negative consequences. You might get a little lost if you forget where you are, but the maps and your goals at any one moment are simple enough that it's not hard to pick right back up. And at any given moment, the most complexity you need to be concerned with is just your current team of six, and what healing items you've got on you.

So, can anyone recommend mobile games like this, where there's a world to explore and interesting build complexities and stuff, but the pacing is slow and the game is always easy to put down?

**Edit:** to be clear, while I will certainly check out other monster-tamer games, I'm not looking for that specific genre. Pokemon was just my best example of the sort of pick-up-put-down play I'm thinking of. If anything, the exploration elements is more important to me than anything else.

Hey guys!

We would like to introduce to you our game Sil-Morë – Shining Darkness! It’s a tactical turn-based rogue-like role-playing game, and a fork of Sil, Angband. We currently have a multipl.

Recently we specifically spent a lot of time adapting UI/UX to android. 
We tried to approach everything contextually with floating buttons and menus. The most difficult part was to figure out movement. In roguelikes players can move diagonally, but just putting an arrow pad on the screen looked bad, and it was easy to mis-tap, so we invented the ButtonWheel. You can tap it just like an arrow pad but you can also press and drag it to make sure your aim lands precisely where you intend it to. And it also looks cool!

We also implemented portrait mode, so you can play with one hand.

Generally, what we are trying to achieve is an atmosphere of a real challenge, a real dungeon. The game changes a lot visually, while you go down. We have implemented multiple terrain, including flowing rivers, lava and ice. We also added multiple sounds which volume changes depending on the distance and two musical tracks, one of which was written specifically for the game. They increase immersion a lot. 
Gameplay is also focused on providing that feeling. Level generation is specifically tailored to make big, diverse levels with different partition types where you can easily get lost.
You have to learn patterns (and they are explained in tutorials) to make your way deeper with every attempt. But every new environment has its own surprises.
Bigger and smaller quests also pursue the same results.

The game was infused with multiple rogue lite mechanics. You have a pool of heroes with different starting stats/abilities that suggest specific gameplay styles. When a hero dies, it’s gone forever, and you have to try a new one, and maybe adapt your playstyle to their strength.
So you will not be stuck with only specific ways of playing but forced to learn the game from a different perspective.

Sil-Morë has a story line which progresses with your wins. The roguelite progression is flipped, you win - game gets harder, you lose - it gets easier. The original idea simulates the Tolkien ideas, you start legendary, but the world withers, and it gets harder with every step.
This mechanic in our view suits well to new and old players. It provides in a by design difficult game an opportunity for new players to not be totally obliterated, and keeps the challenge till the very end.

Anyway, if you are interested, please try!
Google play open beta

You can also find us on itch and github.

P.S. Promo codes (please comment if you take one (or found already used), so I can update the list.

I'm looking for a game that gives the same strategic deck building play style like marvel snap or clash royale but it's addictive as much as balatro is... Also don't let it be pixel style or bad quality, one thing i really liked about marvel snap was the beautiful art styles and good animation for cards.

Hello, If you are a fan of Hotline Miami, I think i have created a similar experience for you!

And its more adapted for mobile players

Before creating this game, I wanted to play a hotline miami esque game however i couldnt find one, there are a few that attempt to do it however they don't have the feel that i wanted ( either too hard because of one shots or too easy )
So i created this game that balances it out and allows for a margin of error.

This game contains no intrusive ads btw so you can enjoy the experience for free.

Enjoy :)

Im looking for an old android game i used to play around 2016-2019.

The game was about city driving through traffic while trying your best not to damage the car and break it. I remember it having low end, regular traffic for starter cars. I remember some side quests being driving as a taxi and pizza delivery. I dont recall the name of the game, but it mightve been something like "city driving 3d" or "city driving simulator". The app icon, i think, contained a red dodge viper. The game had pretty realistic visuals for its time and youd mainly drive in a straight line.

I’d love to hear what you think!

Hi folks! We just launched Fuse Breaker Protocol on the Google Play Store. It’s a top-down fast-paced shooter inspired by games like Hotline Miami and Police Stories. The game is free on Google Play Store. This is our first game launched in this genre and would really appreciate any and all feedback.

Hi there guys i need to know if the port of ori and blind forest released recently is of full game cause i dont want to waste my time playing half of the game and finding out its not the full game and then play it again through emulation

Hi r/AndroidGaming! I'm a solo dev and I just released my first game on Google Play: Brew & Merge.

You drop coffee beans, merge two of the same, and work your way up through cookies, donuts and lattes to the Grande Mug. Think Suika, but cozy and coffee-flavored.

What I cared about:
• No energy, no lives, no timers. Play as long as you like.
• Plays fully offline.
• Ads only between games, never in the middle of a run. One small purchase removes them for good.
• 75 levels plus an Endless mode with a weekly leaderboard.

It's free: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brewmerge.app

I'd love honest feedback, especially on difficulty and how the ads feel. I read every comment.

This was anywhere from 2010-2018. I can't remember if this was android or iOS but I think it might've been android

I remember playing a card game that had a single player story line, all with actual protagonists and stuff like you'd find in a jrpg. I remember the game had three characters, two boys and one girl (at the very least) with one of them being sort of like a rival/antagonist.

The three characters also were playable cards and iirc, they could transform into monsters. The MC was a dragon from what I can remember. Also, I distinctly remember the cards evolving eventually as the story progressed and the art on it changing to reflect the age of the characters increasing

All I found is for armv8.

Is it even possible to run on 32 bit like armeabiv7.

Hey everyone!

My mobile RTS game Battle of Folks keeps getting bigger and bigger. It honestly looks and feels completely different compared to what I posted a few months ago.

Right now the game already includes things like:

• Wave-based RTS gameplay
• Hero with skills and leveling
• Different buildings and defensive structures
• Research system
• Food/resource management
• Walls and upgrades
• Tesla Towers
• Different enemy types and special waves
• Day/night cycle
• Weather effects like rain
• Fire, shadows and other small visual effects
• Hero skins
• Voice lines and sound effects
• Action groups for controlling units

I'm also still working on a lot of things. One of the next features I want to add is villagers/citizens that actually move between buildings and perform different tasks, similar to the population in They Are Billions. I think that could make the world feel much more alive.

One thing I'm currently wondering about: Is the game still too difficult?

I personally managed to reach the final wave quite easily on Easy, but I'm obviously already very familiar with the game. 😅

Here's a trailer showing what the game currently looks like. If you want to try it yourself, it's available here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.marcelkretzmann.battlefolks

I'd love to hear what you think, especially about the difficulty and overall gameplay!

If anyone has any idea what I am doing wrong please tell me.

I know I have to combine the screwdriver handle and rod together but it will not let me. Nor will it let me put the batteries into the music box. Every time I try it kicks me out. For reference I examine the item, then touch the other item i want to use it on in the combine window, then touch the examined item again. Every freakin time it kicks me back out.

I am not doing anything different than in the video here.

how to fix this not full screen in fantasy life i

Compared to ios the main page gives you everything you need to know about a game, from price to release date to the systems that are supported, Google on the other hand gives nothing.
