    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.

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

      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 😂

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

                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.

                        Also worth checking out: Mini Motorways, its successor, 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 😞
