A superb card-based dungeon crawler. Build your deck, battle ever-changing monsters, and unravel a captivating story. If you haven't played this, do it now!
A turn-based strategy game on compact maps with intriguing twists. Hoplite transforms combat into a series of clever puzzles. Highly addictive and free to download (with IAPs for extra features).
A hardcore hack-and-slash platformer featuring branching biomes, challenging bosses, and a deep, rewarding experience. Regular updates keep its fantastical world fresh and engaging.
A game that thrusts you into the vastness of space, challenging you to find your way home. Prepare for numerous deaths, each a valuable lesson for your next cosmic journey.
A refreshing departure from the gloomier entries on this list. Road Not Taken unfolds like a fairy tale, inviting you to explore its beautiful landscapes. Part puzzle, part adventure, entirely amazing.
A mobile port of a classic roguelike. An acquired taste with a control scheme that requires some mastering, but a rewarding blast from the past once you get the hang of it.
A sprawling dungeon crawler with a city-building element. Easy to get lost in, offering countless hours of engaging gameplay.
From the creators of *The Binding Of Isaac* comes *The Legend Of Bum-bo*, sharing the same quirky aesthetic but with a unique combat system. Command one of the Bum-bos and use your deck-building skills to progress. When will we get an Android port of *Binding Of Isaac*?
A fast-paced, downward-scrolling shooter featuring gun boots and menacing bats. Highly recommended if you haven't played it yet. It takes time to master, but the payoff is immense.
A road trip roguelite filled with zombies, quirky characters, and cars. Tough, exciting, and hilarious.
An undisputed GOAT of the roguelike genre. Its addictive gameplay is matched only by the developer's commitment to a fair and fun experience, including an in-house Android port to avoid predatory monetization practices.
Tired of being the hero? Embrace villainy in *Legend Of Keepers*. Manage a dungeon and use strategy to keep adventurers away from your treasures.
