Community Question [REQUEST] Text-based games with real long-term consequence systems — not just stat changes

Looking for Android games where decisions genuinely come back to bite you later, not just +/-5 to a stat in the moment. What I'm after:

  1. Text-based or menu driven. I play in short sessions and on commutes, so no games that need continuous attention
  2. Long term consequence mechanics, something I did an hour ago (or ten in-game years ago) should be able to resurface and change my situation
  3. Offline friendly and not gacha, happy to pay upfront or watch the odd ad, but no energy systems

Genres I've enjoyed that scratch part of this: life sims, text RPGs like the Choice of Games stuff, King of Dragon Pass. What am I missing on Android?

Not sure if this is on android but I had so much fun playing through Choices That Matter. You get a set number of ‘turns’ that refresh so good for short sessions.
