    Also worth checking out: Mini Motorways, its successor, on Apple Arcade.

      An older title which I missed the first time around but recently discovered. Makes one think about how subways are designed.

      Can you win this game or it just continues until you die?

        I don't know about mobile but on PC it's just straight up on steam.

        That’s a start I guess, but the joy of their games is playing them on the phone.

          There are goals you have to meet to be counted as a win and move on to the next stage but ultimately it's a high score attack type of game

            That's called "arcade," basically.

              An actually high quality mobile game… I never played it myself but was quite happy for iOS gamers when it came around. Should play it some day.

              That's probably because it's a PC game that was ported to phones!

                For the longest time i played without knowing you could pause. It's a totally different game 😂

                    Ikr? It turns out you can keep playing once you get to the point you need a complete refactor!

                      It had a giveaway on Android, and I think iOS, 5 years ago. It's certainly one of the most creative minimalist games out there, but I just couldn't figure out how to get up to higher scores.

                        I just introduced my kids to it. It's a classic.

                          Wonderful game. I need to pick it up again. The only downside - like in Tetris - you always lose in the end.

                          Yeah. 5 circles in a row and I know I'm doomed.

                            Mini Metro+ is also free on Apple Arcade

                              I wish Mini Motorways was on Android. I like it a lot better than Mini Metro, but it's the kind of game I want to play on my phone. Goddamn Apple Arcade exclusivity deals 😞
