Favorite Non-Spammy iPhone Games?


I am really struggling to find fun iPhone games that aren’t full of spam, casino tricks, concerning network calls, etc. that I can keep around for the long term.

The only 4 I currently have: Strategery, chess, Thronefall, balatro.

I loved Archero but it’s too casino-y so it’s gone.

Any other favs? Paid or free.

Try Swordigo, it’s amazing

I've spent a good amount of time playing Downwell.

The metal slug games are also on the app store. It's a bit hard to play but you can set infinite lives and it's a fun way to kill some time while waiting around somewhere.

I recall I enjoyed Hoplite, Data Wing, Mini Metro, Super Mario Run, and a few others.

You probably already know Apple arcade curates a set of games. Many of the 'plus' versions of games have the ad/loot box features stripped or set to "free."
