I’m going completely crazy trying to find games that are just games and not cheap clones of other money making machines.
How about the OPUS series? It’s an original game.
Yes. That’s the second series in the game. They’re not related to each other, btw. I’m not sure if order matters here.
Here’s all the game in order of launch date:
- The Day We Found Earth
- Rocket of Whispers
- Rocket of Whispers: Prologue
- Echo of Starsong
- Prism Peak (TBA)
Monument valley is good.
!cheapgames@lemm.ee maybe? Also !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works
!patientgamers@lemmy.ml
!patientgamers@lemmy.world
…
Oooo, and this one:
!pure_mobile_gaming@lemmy.worldThanks for asking this. r/frugalgamers and r/patientgamers were two I don’t think I had found anything like an equal for previously. Stopped searching to replace everything I had followed over there back in August…
Awww yes! That last one is the one!
Somehow I’m subscribed already but forgot it I guess.
Edit: Ooohhh. It’s because my post there is one of only 2 posts there.
Edit 2: OH MY GOD, I MADE THAT COMMUNITY. WHAT THE FREAKY MANDELA FUCK IS WRONG WITH MY MEMORY!?!??
Zillions of other things crowded-it-out from your awareness, is all…
I defy you to count all the things you’ve had to remember, or think-on, since you created that community, Hoomin…
As one gets older, it happens more: more things-in-the-bin, harder-to-find-a-particular-thing.
Consider, though, that now your community has got other people interested, and it wasn’t done through shilling, but through accidental-forgetfulness.
Karma provides lessons, we only have to be honest-enough to earn their essence, you know?

I’ve been really enjoying Rogue Adventure lately, there’s ads but no aggressive monetization. Anything by Kairosoft. Battle Chasers: Nightwar, The Viridian Obelisk. Necromerger has monetization and dollar signs but isn’t in your face with it. Honkai Star Rail. Dungeon Defense. Dicey Dungeons. Soda Dungeon 1 and 2. The Burnable Garbage Day. Vampire Survivors. Stardew Valley. OpenTyrian.
I think Don’t Starve has no in app purchases. Also see open source games like Endless Sky, Shattered Pixel Dungeon, and Mindustry.
I play all of those except endless sky which I’m looking up now.
Can’t get into don’t starve.
Edit: I don’t see endless sky
Ah, it seems the only place to get it is on F-droid, the open source app “store”.
The Endless Sky game is made for PC, but there’s a fork that maintains compatibility with android. If you have F-droid, search for it there. If not, you can download the APK file from the F-droid page for Endless Sky.
If this is your first time installing something that isn’t on Google Play, then your phone is going to fight back. But it generally should tell you what you need to do before you can install apps from outside the Play app store.
Ooooooooooohhhhh! I’ve heard the name a dozen times and never knew what it was! Thanks!
I’ve installed from other sources before and even had grapheneOS at one point.
