Logic puzzles, simple as! This is my go-to recommendation when someone wants simple, free mobile games that are fun and don’t have microtransactions, ads, tracking, and all the other shit which you think of when you hear the phrase “mobile game”. Minesweeper and sudoku are the big names, but there are plenty of better ones in there too.

These will run on most devices you can think of, and the source code is available if you want to port it somewhere else.

    There are tons of great games in this collection. My favorite is probably Keen, which is a bit like Sudoku (also included) but with arithmetic constraints. Lately I’ve been solving a lot of Loop puzzles, where you trace a line around a grid (lots of types of grid available) while making sure certain cells have a specific number of adjacent lines.

      I’m a big fan of Loop, I played the simple squares version in physical puzzle books back in the day but there are like 20 different shape combinations which make for a completely different puzzle
