Mobile phone gaming thread?

mithrandir · 3 Jul 2017 at 15:16

I haven't seen a dedicated thread, if so can someone point me to the right thread please?

I wanted to know what games people are playing and device/OS for recommendations, etc.

World of tanks fps wise it is smooth enough on my moto g4 plus, i also have roller coaster tycoon touch as well as gta vice city

I have version 7.0 of android.

I think there was an app thread but can't find it now.

Don't we have a forum dedicated to mobile and tablet gaming?

Phone games are just terrible though

Controls are always poor and most games are pay to win micro transaction nightmares.

I'll stick to my pc thanks.

Most of them are, the good games are generally lost in the sea of ***** on the play store.

I have tried to find a few gems, but it's too frustrating wading through all the rubbish.

Long since given up looking now.

Guess you won't need a top end phone to play those sorts of games :0).

Just a thought.

I do admit that i find the controls somewhat awkward .

edit again,

Going to try summoners war and vainglory.

Summoners War is eating my soul

The only game I play regularly is Vainglory, but at 20-30 minutes a game not something you can play casually

Super Cricket 2
Organ Trail

Both decent, come back to them from time to time. Organ trail, I suspect, actually works better on mobile than on PC.

Everything else I've ever played on mobile has been terrible, or just a rubbish way of playing (LIMBO much better on PC, for example)

Ok, I take back what I said.

Just had a 'dig' about and found Captain Cowboy.

What a fantastic little homage to boulder dash

Only 99% of mobile games are garbage then...

Thanks for that - never came across that section before.
