Every time, I think "oh, this one will be better!"

Sucker.

Definitely not for everyone but Shattered Pixel Dungeon is an incredible game. Available free on f-droid, tons of replayability, 5 classes to play, challenges most long term players can never get. Be warned incredible time sink, but very rewarding. Also a very nice community on Lemmy willing to help.

I can confirm, that is one of the better games on mobile. That said, bringing along a Switch is better by the length of the track and when Switch isn't an option just do some killer sudoku or Brilliant or something. Heck, maybe even try talking to other people.

One mobile game I keep coming back to is Necromerger. Has a paid in ap o purchase to turn off all adverts. Fantastic time killer that doesn't keep me on it all day.
