The Room by fireproof games. Probably one of the first actual proper mobile games. Its spawned clones no IAP, no crap. Just fun, hard af puzzles.
Hoplite. Fun little iso turn based roguelike.
Vampire Survivors. Reverse bullet-hell roguelike. Has spawned so, so, so many clones..
GTA:Chinatown Wars Have not played this is a very very long time, but i'm sure it still holds up (if its available). Old school (2d birds eye view) gta style.These are games that work well without a controller, The Room actually would play worse with one. If at all.
Then of course theres emulators and roms and stuff.
I think the opposite of a bullet hell is a bullet heaven, and vampire survivors counts.

Mobile games usually get a bad rep as they're usually asset flips and/or MTX-ridden and/or ad-filled, etc., and I'm sure this is actually the case for most games on the app/play store. But are there any ones that are actually good, maybe just something to pass the time with?
Hoplite - hex dungeon puzzle
Spelltower - word puzzle
X-COM (on a bigger screen) -

You Must Build a Boat is an RPG/match 3 hybrid with no shady shit. Pay once. Own the game. It's pretty fun.

Slay the spire, balatro, Ascension, melvor, plague inc, terraforming Mars, unciv, shapez...

I honestly think Hayday is one of the best free farm games, It does have paid currency but it's not forced on you.
You can watch optional Ads for a few daily random items but these are not forced, you're the one who has to click the ticket near the mail box.Supercell make some of the best games that aren't fully scummy.

Vampire survivor is good too

The only good mobile games that i can think of are ports.
Like Knights of the Old Republic.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is quite a timekiller on the phone

Old school RuneScape

I haven't gotten this for a very unusual and stupid reason. I'd want it on my phone, and on my pc\steam deck; but don't want to pay for it twice, out of spite.
I refuse to but it on mobile because I already bought it on steam.
Because when I get into balatro I get hooked hard, and the last thing I need is immediate access to fucking crack every where I am.

Recently I really enjoyed Acecraft which is a gatcha bullet hell with cuphead art style. Its really charming and very much skill based to a point. The only negative is this constant clicking on shit to collect all of the coin garbage which eventually made me quit it but it was fun for a while.
I really, really liked it, but the gatcha mechanics became too much for me. I just want to shoot cartoons in a plane, god damn it.

10€ for card game?! Are you real??
Belatro won all sorts of awards, including GDC game of the year. $10 for an award winning game is nothing. Probably the most addicting game I'd played in years, and I'm not even into that type of game.

NYT Games app. Realistically its just advertising to get you to buy an NYT subscription. The Mini and Wordle are good for killing a few minutes each day.

Isn't the mini behind a paywall now?

Flow free is pretty cool

In that same category, Merge Maestro. Very fun and addictive game where no two runs go the same way.
Edit: Free to try, full game is a single $2 purchase.
Just played my first Merge Maestro game and won. Fun so far at a super good price at $2. I have a feeling that my work will be cut out for me chasing down exploits to take advantage of. I see it becoming almost overly hard to keep track of everything.

It isn't hard exactly, you get a feel for synergies and they usually happen organically. Sometimes something triggers that you weren't even expecting and next thing you know you have 1,000 attack with 200 multi strike.
