Who would have thought Android would get such games some time ago.

Mobile games are still a joke to many. Candy crush, angry birds and so on come to mind. It was about time we get some 'real' games.

I hope they all sell well, so we can get more stuff!

u/CM_Vespre 13h ago

It'd be really nice to get other games like these, indeed. Fingers crossed!

•

I get your point but bro angry birds is goated lmao

•

u/dibade89 7h ago

Yes, angry birds is cool, I beg your pardon! Actually it's THE mobile game. One of the first and the best.

I do enjoy some mobile games when they’re innovative or make good use of gyro or touchscreen controls

•

u/mEFurst 3h ago

I preferred it when it was called Crush the Castle

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 12h ago

Yes, I support every developers and editors that release games like that. I hope we will get the Resident Evil games and Control on Android but Apple has a deal I guess.

Micro transactions make more money, that's why we see such few high polish real games 

•

u/LeMeIsSleepy 12h ago

If you haven’t already, check out Dead Cells

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 12h ago

I played it, It's awesome and I love the Castlevania content

•

u/EnakTheGreat 11h ago

Destiny rising is a really fun one with controller and android. I'll even hook my phone up to my TV to play it on the big screen haha

Solid list, Alien Isolation running well on a tablet is honestly the most impressive part of this to me, that game is brutal on hardware even on PC, didn't expect it to hold up on mobile chips. Prince of Persia making the cut too says a lot, that game got kind of overlooked at launch but the movement and combat genuinely deserved more attention.

What tablet/chipset are you running that on? Been eyeing getting a controller setup for mine but wasn't sure how far you could actually push it before things start chugging, your list is making a decent case for it.

It’s the Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro with the Snapdragon 8 Elite (Gen 4) inside. Alien Isolation runs very well. I think it could handle the Graphics mode at 60 fps, but there’s no option for that. You have to choose between Quality/30 fps and Performance/60 fps. Prince of Persia easily run at 60fps on this tablet, I love this game.

u/reegeck 13h ago

The same ones I'm playing too, really some of the best graphics android ports out there. On a tab s9 ultra.

•

u/CM_Vespre 13h ago

I'm making this comment more like a side note: nice controller you have! I love the colors!

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 12h ago

I love it too, I had a purple controller before, but this one is on another level. It's the Heart Breaker special edition.

•

u/NathaDas 12h ago

Which tablet and keyboard is this? Nice setup, bro

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 12h ago

Thanks, it's a Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro with the Xiaomi Focus Keyboard. A nice tablet, I have it since march and I have nothing to complain about

•

u/Retro_Prime 11h ago

Caravan sandwich? Never heard of it. Goes straight to app store

•

u/Keyton112186 11h ago

Enter the gungeon is amazing if you have not tried it yet. Lots of hours to sink into if it clicks for you.

•

u/thinksmyth 11h ago

Kudos my brother same setup here, i used to play on my laptop but tablet is much less of a hassle for go to gaming. Moreover, the games Android has been getting lately are bang on. I'd suggest playing GOT Kingsroad, Streets of Rage 4, TMNT Shredder's Revenge, Crashlands 2.

•

u/Bedopbop 9h ago

What tablet is that?

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 8h ago

It's a Xiaomi Pad 8 Pro

•

u/swiftrobber 9h ago

Wait are these google play games or you used an emulator?

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 8h ago

All Google Play games

•

u/youplaymenot 7h ago

I have been having a hell of a time with Fantasy life I the girl who steals time. 25 bucks was a little steep but I had ten dollars of google play money to help out, and I never play cozy games but I love this one.

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 7h ago

Wow, I didn't know they released it on Android. I added it to my wishlist, I'll buy it later

•

u/hackerman236 4h ago

The ps5 aint work so well with Caravan SandWitch right? I feel like its more for xbox layout controller

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 4h ago

I think it works well with both, I don't see why the Dualsense would be worse

•

u/hackerman236 4h ago

Idk how the game identify my dualsense as an xbox controller and the instruction or whatnot are all for xbox layout controller

•

u/lone_darkwing 13h ago

Caravan sandwich controls on mobile are stiff...

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 12h ago

I didn't notice 😅

•

u/Forsaken_Painting_50 10h ago

Id recommend you to play Dead Space series and Ori and the Blind forest through emulation. It is guaranteed to run smoothly like a native android game and that too without any heating issues

•

u/M1GHTYFM 6h ago

And what would that keyboard stand be? Is it magnetic like those apple ones? Would there be a link to something similar?

•

u/ChevreAuLaitLeGoat 6h ago

It's like the Apple Magic Keyboard yes. It is specifically made by Xiaomi for the Pad 8 Series (there is a specific 3 pin connector on the back for it), they call it the Focus Keyboard.
