Looking for games to play on the ipad, what do you guys recommend
Stardew Valley. Loved to play it on long haul flights, doesn’t need Internet.
The good news (for iOS people) is that it’s coming to Apple Arcade in July (for the 10 people that hadn’t bought it yet).
Lower price than non-mobile Stardew, at least when I got it. Gateway drugged me into buying it on PC so I could use those sweet mods.
Does it have a local multiplayer over Bluetooth? Thinking about playing it with my gf on our next flight.
Not on the Android version AFAIK.
The only mobile game I’ve spent any amount of time with was You Must Build a Boat. It’s a bejeweled clone with dungeon crawling and RPG elements. It’s dirt cheap and has no ads or in-app transactions. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Dead Cells! Best mobile port of a PC/Console game I’ve ever encountered.
I put it on my list, do you have any online multiplayer games you like?
Not for mobile really. Actually maybe Gwent? Wasn’t my thing but a lot of people love it!
Osmos is a wonderful meditative game on iPad.
Ooh I totally forgot this one! Osmos is seriously an amazing game, one of my favorite games of all time.
mindustry is my fav
it’s a crazy good combo of resource management, tower defense, rts, and sandbox creativity
added bonus that it’s open source and even has multi-player
Had no idea this was on mobile. Can’t imagine playing any factory game by tapping alone though
This. The game is great, but man, halfway through the first level I felt like I was in the hot dog fingers universe from “Everything, Everywhere, All at Once.”
I started it on the PC and was pleasantly surprised by the quality. Really fun game!
I really like Data Wing. Cool top-down 2D arcade racing game with a cool story, free with no ads. It’s obvious a heap of passion was poured into the game. Still my favourite mobile game.
EDIT: I use Android so I’m not sure it’s on the Apple Appstore but I don’t see why it wouldn’t be
I verified its on the ios app store, last updated 4 years ago tho :/
In this case, I think that’s okay. It’s a linear, story-based game with an end. It has level leaderboards so you can grind down your time if you want. I don’t think it needs updating
That’s okay if it was finished by then, isn’t it?
I’ve put quite some time into Bloons TD 6. Definitely addicting.
FTL plays great on the iPad
Great game, and sophomore release Into The Breach by the same studio is also available on iPad visa Netflix Games
Currently on my phone:
- Civilization VI
- Civilization Revolutions 2
- Into The Breach
- Mini Motorways
- Shovel Knight Dig
- Slay the Spire
- Grindstone

Throw a comma or two in there my guy
lol sorry… Mlem chose to drop all of the line breaks.
picross is fun there’s gotta be some picross type games on the ios side
I love picross games, but when the puzzle gets to large it’s hard to play on phone screens.
20 or 25 squares are the sweet spot for me just for counting and holding-numbers-in-my-head reasons and those play fine on a phone screen. I do have a Note though, and play with the stylus.
Slay the Spire has a decent iOS port
I play it on iPad, but have found the touch controls to be a little off (for lack of better description). You’d think that flinging cards should feel great on a touchscreen, but I’m never quite sure if they’re going to activate the way that I want.
Seconded! I’ve put over 500 hours into it. Excellent game.
As a Final Fantasy fan, I’ve been buying games on PC instead of mobile when I have the choice, but I just started Final Fantasy Dimensions the other day, which is exclusive to iOS and Android, and I’m having a good time.
Nice ill check it out!
Pathos - Nethack Codex, a very playable traditional roguelike based on Nethack.
Unciv, an open-source Civilization V remake.
Waking Mars! An incredible short sci fi game with a nice story
For reference, this game is only on iOS and PC (Steam/GOG)
Shadow fight 2 (paid version) and also The Silent Age (thankfully Google bard reminded me of the name of this game)
These 2 games are by far the best mobile games I played
