I'm moving away from proprietary apps and want to find open-source games on Android that are genuinely good, not just time-killers or kids' titles.

My criteria:

  • Truly open source (repository available, ideally on F-Droid)

  • No ads, no trackers, no in-app purchases

  • Modern feel and polished experience — something that feels like a real game, not a tech demo

  • Made for adults: deep gameplay, challenge, real progression (any genre welcome — strategy, roguelike, RPG, racing, puzzle...)

I trust actual players over AI-generated lists, so: what open-source game on Android gave you the best experience, and why?

OP: Hey I'm looking for something with 'x' requirements!

You: Here's something completely different!

Not a bad recommendation, but doesn't seem like what OP is asking for.

    It's not completely different. It fits almost all his requirements.

    Why would I not recommend a free accessible completely playable game?

    He doesn't have to download it but the advice is sound.

    Once again, this isn't a medical diagnosis!
