I miss the days when there were fun little phone game aps that didn’t have a billion pop up adds or ongoing subscriptions or constant nagging to buy treasure chests. Sometimes I just want something a bit mindless to occupy me while waiting for appointments and feel like that golden era has gone. Now I’ll browse social media or news websites but it’s not really the same.

Check out a developer called yiotro. His stuff aint flashy and almost entirely strategy/puzzle but are light on resources (i.e you can pick up and play/stop whenever without losing progress. Also won't kill your battery), and not most importantly not bloated with ads. The perfect time killer.

Some of his games are pretty fun/addictive/challenging. Paid versions are a few bucks and free for life.
