Gonna go with the wildcard here and suggest Walkscape. It’s still in beta, so access requires a one-time patron sub ($4.50, then cancel) or a free written application through their portal (may take like a week to approve)
It’s a classic runescape-style RPG where all actions cost “steps” walking. It’s designed to keep screen time to a minimum and walking time to a maximum.
Character management is generally pretty passive and 1-handed. Definitely much more casual by nature, but encourages much more active participation.
It was quite some time ago when I played the game, so I might not remember everything.
The story felt like it was a good continuation of the first title and somewhat tied in to the books/movies.
The combat was fleshed out more with more moves and weapons
more interesting uruks, personalities, afflictions they can developed as a result of the way you killed them first
the sieges were a cool addition
It was definitely more of the same in a way but it was executed well. There was that whole controversy around real-money loot boxes to pull good uruks from that you could employ to guard your fort, in a way being pay 2 win if you had money to spend on loot boxes. But at least that was removed and made free.
I just realised the game came out like 7 years ago. Where does the time go…
I always hear people praise the Shadow franchise, and not to put Mordor down, but get the feeling War is the one everyone is talking about, so I do plan on playing it. I know a bit about it and it sounds like a lot of fun
It’s pretty much the same game but better. Mordor feels a little more dated in comparison, but it still stands on its own compared to War. If you liked Mordor, you’ll definitely like War even more
I don’t play many Android games, and enjoy even fewer, but Hoplite is great. It’s pretty simple to play but still requires some thinking, which is what I want out of a mobile game.
I like games where I name the main character, often the main character has a title or nickname that npcs use as well (the Dragonborn, the Avatar) but if I know they have a name in the story then it’s feels a bit weird to change it. So, Link is Link. But when I player Chrono Trigger for the first time recently I had (somehow) not heard much about it, so I renamed Crono (also it’s a horrible misspelling and kinda dull name, so happy to change it).
I would highly recommend Monument Valley (1,2 and 3 is coming soon) as far as puzzle goes, for a quick arcade fix, I like Breakout 71 (with rogue-lite elements) and all games by Arnold Rauers (Card Crawl being my favorite, but by a small margin).
Here’s a quick selection from the top of my head, if you want I can go throw my app history for a few more :)
I love puzzle games, either ones with an overaching story or standalone puzzles. I love the professor layton series Googke Play Store. I believe you should also check out Monument Valley Google Play link. If you’re looking for a FOSS option, there’s Simon Tatham’s puzzle collection F-Droid Link
Depends on the game. If audio is a huge part I use my headset, but most games I play these days I have on mute or close to (old school Runescape, Minecraft, TrackMania). Baldur’s gate 3 and counter strike 2 are both fine on my laptop speakers although they do fairly good directional audio as long as it isn’t in a horrible room for audio.
When I played Forza horizon that was mostly on mute too, or at least quiet enough to not be the primary audio.
I’ve tried using a headset for games but after like an hour or so it just feels like shit.
