I used to play games like Fire Emblem Heroes and Marvel Strike Force, but they took up way too much space on my phone. After a couple of months, I’d lose interest, and some games would start crashing a lot. I’m looking for something under 500MB, preferably with lots of combat, but without daily grind tasks just to make progress. Also, I’d rather avoid games that feel like a never-ending grind. Any recommendations?
Vampire Survivors is a great pick.
Territory.io is super addictive, and matches don’t go over 20 minutes. Works best on a browser, but it’s also on the Play Store.
DeckEleven’s Railroads 2 – The first 10 missions are free, and it’s a solid game.
Not a combat game, but I made an arcade platformer that’s only 13MB. It has two modes: Score Attack and Time Attack.
It’s about $1, and a Google Play Instant version is launching later today.
Egg Inc is a fun and simple idle game.
If you like Pokémon, you can try hack ROMs with an emulator like MyBoy.
I recommend Pokémon Unbound and Pokémon Gaia.
Backpack Brawl could be what you’re looking for.
You can never go wrong with Chess.
Balatro is one of the most addictive games out there. It’s not exactly what you asked for, but it’s a lot of fun and highly rated on every platform.
