I'm moving away from proprietary apps and want to find open-source games on Android that are genuinely good, not just time-killers or kids' titles.

My criteria:

  • Modern feel and polished experience — something that feels like a real game, not a tech demo

  • Made for adults: deep gameplay, challenge, real progression (any genre welcome — strategy, roguelike, RPG, racing, puzzle...)

I trust actual players over AI-generated lists, so: what open-source game on Android gave you the best experience, and why?

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is pretty great if you like graphical top-down turn-based games with procedurally generated maps.

SPD is great. Easy to pick up for a quick run, easy to get engrossed in. Looks great and controls are intuitive.
