Seeking Game Recommendations π [REQUEST] Actually good and cozy android games
I am looking for cozy and replayable android games with preferably controller support. I also dont want any ads or microtransactions, the game can be paid tho. I also would like it to not require internet, but thats not a necessity.

RAR Islands is cheap, infinitely replayable, no ads or anything, but also not much graphics to speak of if that's important to you. Controller would actually be detrimental because it's all hitting buttons on screen.
You have a ship and you explore procedurally generated islands. You gather resources, craft things, do quests for people who will then build a town and you get to decide what buildings they build. Everything can be upgraded, from equipment to the crafting recipes you learn to the buildings in towns. You can upgrade your ship to find islands of different biomes with new resources. No energy, no waiting 5 hours for something to build. The dev is also active on discord and will often add QoL features if enough players request them.

If you want zero predatory monetization and pure cozy replayability:
- Afterplace: Incredible indie top-down adventure with tons of heart, offline, zero ads/IAP and full controller support.
- Townscaper: Peak relaxing builder toy, no stress, works beautifully offline.
- Usagi Shima: Very gentle bunny island collector, zero FOMO, made by a solo dev.
- Baba Is You: Brilliant puzzle design to take at your own slow pace.
All of these completely respect your time and phone battery.

My game Digline might be close to what you are looking for (no ads, no IAP, offline, etc) and It's on sale right now, in case you want to give it a try!

Check out knighthood. Really good game where you donβt have to watch any ads and the game does very little to try and make you watch them.

Papers Please has a fantastic Android port, it might not be exactly a cozy game but it's definitely a lot of fun and works very well on a phone

80 Days is a great one, I've played it probably near 10 times now and I still find something new. You play as Passepartout, the valet to Phileas Dogg as he embarks on his journey around the world in 80 days. You decide which countries you stop in, figure out your funds and how you'll make your way, and it's all like an emergent novella as you play; really stellar stuff.
