We've started it with my girlfriend, both on Android, and we're hooked. We're even considering buying the PC version for the multiplayer features.
I usually play on and off. My wife saw me playing and got it, now she's addicted. Our son saw that I had it on the switch too and started to play it this weekend. Now they are Stardew crackheads.
The only commercial Android game I regularly play is Wordscapes. It's an almost embarrassing level of enduring basic bitch addiction, I don't engage with any microtransaction bait, I have a systemwide ad blocker... and I love it.
Otherwise it's all Emulators and Open Source (covered well elsewhere in this thread).
Here's my games folder:
Finding mobile games that aren't live service garbage is tough but at least a lot of good PC games just port to android.
Here's mine. Ignore the background.
Yep, there's a grass touching simulator. I mostly play Bus Simulator: Ultimate, though it gets my battery temperature to 55°C. Enough to hurt on fingers.

Among us and started valley
I love starred valley
Orna RPG! It's a GPS game like Pokemon Go with a classic RPG style, no pay to win options, a great community, and Devs who listen to feedback with regular updates.
Genuinely the best GPS game I've played by a long shot.
Baba is You
What's this one about?
Puzzle game where you push blocks around. Blocks with words can be pushed together to change game behavior. For example on a level with Baba, Is, and You blocks together let you control your character (your character is named Baba). But if you push a block that says Door in front of the Is and You blocks you will suddenly control the doors instead of Baba. It's a really cool concept and the levels get extremely imaginative. And also difficult
Rhythm games, especially Phigros and COXETA. I also like the mobile port of Portal Knights, even if it is inferior compared to the other versions, and the developers have dropped this port.
Vampire Survivors. It makes my phone catch fire but it is fire
Lichess
Lichess and Worldbox
Shattered Pixel Dungeon, Endless Sky, and Mindustry (especially that last one, which I haven't seen anybody else mention yet).
I get all my games from F-Droid, not any commercial app store.

Mine are bloons td 6, league of legends, and rocket league.
Stardew Valley, Xenowerk and Don't Starve Pocket Edition.
I keep coming back to Stardew. Such a fun game.
It has quickly become one of my favourite games when I started playing a few months back. I mainly play on PC with a few QoL mods, but I think it works great on a smart phone as well! Great game to have in your pocket! The only bad thing I've encountered on Android, is that the cursor in the menu does not become visible when you've a controller connected. It's there, but you can´t see it. Kinda annoying, but I could fix this by forcing it with a mod (I forgot which one, but I can look it up if you want). It's one of my favourite games to play when I just want to chill without thinking too much.
My favorite Android game has always been, and still is, OSMOS. It used to be in the play store. You can still get it on Android from Hemisphere. There's also iOS, Ipad, Steam (for Linux), OS X and Windows versions. I love this game so much I keep an ancient 7" pad with Marshmallow 6 offline just for it (Because I had the original on it - You don't need an ancient device).
It's a good while I don't hear about Osmos, it's a fun game.

Dead cells, out there omega edition, 20 minutes till dawm, vampire survivors, titan quest, hollow knight, 9th dawm rpg 3, starrows, scourgebringer, undead horde
Marvel Snap is cool. You can have a fun time paying 0
I do really like that so far paying is completely optional. I found so many of the android F2P are good for a couple weeks (or only days) before you realize you need to spend money to really play the game.

Open Sudoku and Endless Sky. ES saves the game as a text file. If you play it on PC and save a file the last line of the text file is the only difference. You can play the game on both and save back and forth. I only have FOSS apps. I don't have any google stuff at all. Both of these are from F-Droid.

John gba lite with pokemon unbound rom.
Hero of Aethric
Slay the spire and Downwell (PC ports I guess), it's amazing how much the quality of mobile games is for games that are more than one dollar.
Hill Climb Racing 2. I don't really play much on my smartphone.
Bloons TD 6
oh! is there a BTD6 community on lemmy yet?
the discussions, memes, and strats were interesting on the r/.
- Lichess - Parce que les échecs c'est trop bien
- Mindustry - Parce que le jeux est ultra bien fait et que la gestion de ressources c'est cool et reposant
- Slice & Dice - J'aime bien le fait que le jeux utilise les dés pour les attaques et la façon dont les personnages s'améliore
Translated: Lichess - Because chess is so good Mindustry - Because the game is very well done and resource management is cool and relaxing Slice & Dice - I like how the game uses dice for attacks and how the characters improve
- Shattered Pixel Dungeon: Fun, compact, traditional NetHack-esque roguelike
- Slice & Dice: Really cool dice-based risk-reward turn-based combat game
In addition to being good games, neither has any microtransactions, ads, or any of that BS, was happy to give the devs some money.
Age of History is a turn-based strategy war game. It's an addictive way to kill a few hours, and you can customize your game modes quite a lot.
Tap Ninja is pretty good as far as idle games go.
Mighty Doom is a fun auto shooter, made by Bethesda and has minimal ads (opt to watch for rewards) and micro transactions are not required to win.
