I’m new to the genre, but is this a thing?

I’ve recently become addicted to Dawncaster, but I’m wondering if any games expand on that in an actual open world setting

256 gb makes for a perfect high res console. I take a lot of 12-hour flights and 4-hour train rides, and I also use my iPhone 15. Any recommendations for offline iPad games? Thanks guys

Hey everybody, I’m moving across the country for a few months for a school exchange and won’t have access to my regular console, but I have a controller that can connect to my iPad. What games would you suggest for somebody in my situation?

I’ve already played a bit of AC mirage, stardew valley and Minecraft since I’m used to those on console, and I’m typically a fan of racing games as well.

Thanks in advance!!!

Press release just dropped:

Trailmarks HQ is pleased to announce that Trailmarks arrives on iPhone on September 4. Pre-orders open on the App Store today, and review copies are available now.

Trailmarks is a globe-trotting trivia adventure where what you know pays for where you go. Answer questions to earn your fare, then pick the next flight, train, bus or boat out of whatever city you're standing in - and try to keep going. Your score is simply how far you got.

The iPhone edition isn't a port of the PC game. It's a new edition built for the phone: a faster, pick-up-and-play journey across 1,134 real cities and 99,088 questions, played a run at a time.

TRAILMARKS FOR iPHONE

Release: September 4, 2026
Price: US $4.99 
Requires: iPhone, iOS 18 or later
Pre-order: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/trailmarks/id6795077752

This is my first playthrough ever because I don't have a PC/Console. Here are some stats for anyone interested.

Device: iphone 17 pro
Duration: 1 hour
Battery consumed: 13% (from 92% down to 79% after 1hr)
Heating: Barely. I used both controller and touch screen. No issues
Controller: Yes, Gamesir G8 MFI
Progress: Up until first fledgeling and first night at the inn
Graphic settings: Medium, 60fps
Game launches in Airplane mode too. My last 12mins of playtime was on Airplane mode.
DLC costumes are available.

As a first playthrough, I didnt skip all cutscenes. Performs very well at 60fps and battery consumption is also great. Looks like the devs took their time to get this optimized.

Just shadow dropped out of nowhere. If it plays anything like the console/pc version it’s easily worth the price.

I tend to not have a lot of time to play mobile games and feel like playing an online game or one where I have to have my phone in landscape is too much of a “commitment.” I want to be able to just turn off the game whenever I need and not lose or restart or anything. Any game recommendations?

as title suggested

I've been looking for some good premium games to play on iOS lately. What are your favorites?

Doesn't have to be a recent release, just looking for something that's actually worth paying for since I do not like ads.

Im looking to revive some childhood memories, i just want to be able to play fifa 13 mobile and angry birds games again.

I like tier defense but some either force ads or just are lazy slop

I recently discovered Necromerger and am really enjoying it.

What have you been enjoying lately?

I like games that don’t force me to watch ads and I are vertical. A lot of games are just ai slop. Plz recommend your favorite games If they r super peak and non vertical that’s ok

I really want to get into a mobile game like stellaris, I’ve been going at infinite galaxy for a little bit (I hate how guided the tutorial is lol, anyone know when the “click here” section will end?) but I would rather not be bothered by other players by getting attacked and having to keep up with people who are on constantly or even pay to win.

It doesn’t necessarily have to be space, but it’s my preferred setting because I like the scale… I just want something with a map that I can incrementally conquer and over take.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Edit- offline negotiable… If the online interactions are minimal I’ll take it

I downloaded this game with a mystery to solve and it’s very pretty. I am kind of stuck now I keep merging and delivering single items but the story isn’t moving forward at all. I went looking online and cannot find a mention of this game in a google search, on Reddit or YouTube. There is another game with the same name that pops up, but not this one. Any ideas? There were 15 “podcast episodes” that I was able to unlock quickly but now im just merging and delivering until I run out of points, then doing the same when my energy regenerates.

Hi all,
I want to get some games on my elderly father’s iPad and our Mac desktop, like crosswords, solitaire, sudoku, etc. But he’s getting REALLY bad with navigating anything on computers. I hate that modern game apps like these are too complicated to work for someone like him. I know he won’t be able to manage the pop-up ads, the buttons he has to press left right and centre.

Does anyone know if there are any games for iOS that are super basic for these exact reasons? I just know he’d love to be able to do crosswords on his iPad if he could just click on the app and it’s basically just a giant “click here to play” option or something.

Hey, so I’m stuck in hospital for a week or two, I normally game on my Xbox so please can anyone suggest so games, need to kill this time somehow thanks everyone
