Fools quest I know but I’m wondering if there are any good, native games that I can play on my android handheld
Edit: I forgot but controller support is also needed.
Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a great Rouge-like.

Nah, everything is filtered through a slight red filter

- Slay the Spire
- Slice and Dice
- Balatro
- Vampire Survivors
- Retro Bowl/Retro Bowl College/Retro Goal
- Hoplite
Depends on your willingness to pay. Balatro, Slay the Spire, Dead Cells are all really good but cost around 10 bucks each but are among the best mobile games you could want, all offering different styles of gameplay
Thanks :3
Just to start off, there was a thread about this some time ago.
Did you look at who the creator of this and that thread was?
Not intending to be mean or anything, just found it funny.
Oh. I forgot that I made this same post a while ago
It’s still useful because others will have the same question.
Yup, I agree.
😅 I went a bit fast lol. It’s been a while so I’m sure new stuff will come up (like Balatro was mentioned)
Balatro. I only own it on Android. I don’t think the experience is significantly reduced on Android as opposed to PC/other platforms.
- Sokoban
- Atomas
- Magic Survival
- Mindustry
- Terraria
+1 for Magic Survival 🖤
+1 for mindustry. If you like factorio, this is a game for you.
Balatro is super good
Slice and Dice. Turn based RPG dungeon fighter where your party are all unique dice that you can modify with items and such. The interface is super slick and well done.
I’ve put in hundreds of hours and I’m going to likely be putting in hundreds more. Well worth the price!
Stardew Valley is popular
I play it on switch :3
I assume that is a better experience in just about every way!
Which handheld do you have? The games depends on the screen size and buttons available. Without that information, !Balatro@lemm.ee is the only safe bet I have.
Its an rp4 pro. Baisally dual analog. Dpad and face buttons and shoulders and triggers
A Retroid Pocket 4 Pro? That thing is an emulation beast. For me, I’d be right at home playing Dreamcast and PSP games with RetroAchievements turned on. But this thread isn’t about emulation.
I bet !skychildrenoflight@lemmy.world runs great on this thing. Dead Cells and Streets of Rage 4 seem to be popular picks too. I’d look into unofficial ports like RSDK, Ship of Harkinian, Open XCOM, Open Lara, and D1X-Redux. The Retroid front end can probably install some of those for you.
If you’re into simple games, there’s one called Lato from F-droid. It’s just a snowboarding game where you click to jump over boulders and cliffs with a changing atmosphere and relaxing music. It helps me ease my mind.
This is interesting, it looks like a remake of Alto’s Adventure. The control sensitivity takes a moment to get used to, but the background is just as nice as the original, and the music is indeed relaxing
In the end I just settled with the logic based ones like minesweeper and sudoku. F-droid has a good version each (and more than one maybe).
PlanetCon is a decent strategy game on its basic settings. I haven’t customised it but have had a fair amount of fun in it. But it is nothing perfect, do not expect too much out of it. If you learn how to not attract the ire of all AI opponents simultaneously though, you can have short bursts of decent strategy enjoyment.
Pokemon TCGP if you’re into that sort of thing. It starts with just collecting, but after a while you’ll be able to battle.
Super Hexagon
I don’t know much about android handhelds or anything, but I feel like Mindustry on F-droid could be a fun game. No idea if the device is touchscreen, nor if there are physical controls whether they’ll work natively.
