BGA games that play well or well enough on Mobile Phone (aside from the 50 already listed by BGA)

Hi Members,

I wonder if there's any members that could please list any games on BGA that play well or well enough on Mobile Phone. There are already 50 BGA 'good on mobile' recommendations.

I have only played Azul from the BGA list and it's a good experience on mobile to me. But in my opinion Patchwork plays quite well mobile not as well as Azul possibly but certainly a solid experience.

Definitely well enough to get a good game from it.

I play on a Google Pixel 7 Pro mobile phone exclusively because I don't have a PC/Laptop/Tablet etc currently. Even then I will probably continually exclusively play on mobile.

Tags and ratings are randomly (or rather, arbitrarily) set probably by developers, maybe some by BGA admins. I have very little confidence in them. Very especially: a game NOT having a tag does not mean the tag does not apply, just that nobody bothered setting it. But even for existing tag, better not trust them too much. For example, Innovation has a "buliding" theme? Not talking about "engine building", that's mechanism, this is about the theme.

If you go in advanced search, filter by the Discussions forum, and search for the keyword "mobile" specifying that it is in the topic title, there are THREE unique threads (not including this one) about "good" or "best" mobile games or "mobile friendly" games on the first page of results:

Thanks very much for explaining that Jellby! It's handy to know.

Thanks Meeplelowda for reminding me of the search function, it slipped my mind to do that. I should have done it beforehand.

I'll have a read of the comments in those other 3 threads.
