Evening, all.
Looking for recommendations for any Android games that you enjoy which can be played completely offline without a data connection of any sort.
These used to be super common once upon a time, but these days it seems every single game I try just doesn’t function if you are totally out of service area.
Would appreciate any tips! Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Some great suggestions in here! That will keep them busy a while. Thanks so much everyone.
My goto for offline gaming is usually emulation, typically pokemon. But I can also recommend the Bart Bonte puzzle games, Vampire Survivor and Shattered Pixel Dungeon.
+1 for emulation, especially games you never got a chance to play before when they were new
Fire emblem and advance wars are also great picks!
Templar Battleforce.
Shattered pixel dungeon if you like roguelikes; it’s on the play store and fdroid
Yioto is a great indie dev with lots of gems, but I particularly recommend Antiyoy.
I’d also recommend Battle for Polytopia.
I’m fairly certain both these turn based strategy games will work fine offline.
Terraria
Shattered pixel dungeon
All games on fdroid
I don’t know why I never realized that.
Yeah this just hit me too. It seems so obvious now
Almost every paid Kairosoft games?
Peglin! It’s an amazing peggle style rouge-lite
Slay the Spire is a heavy recommendation from me, though it does have online sync it works nicely offline.
I just bought it. The only problem is, that the font is relatively small.
Troll Patrol. The base game is with ads but can be upgraded cheaply to a pro version with no ads. It’s an excellent match-3 rogue-lite RPG. I was playing it for the last two months. Similar to You must build a boat, for example. The developer also closed his subreddit because of recent API changes. He’s a good guy, You can show him some love and buy his game.
On this topic I wish there was a definitive place to find Android games that have controller support. No microtransactions… I will have to download and try again first and then 90% of the time it doesn’t meet my criteria for playable.
Unciv is a decent Civilization clone. And it’s open source.
The phoenix wright and danganronpa series are both on android ad free.
