Dragon Ball Legends, too gacha for me.
Life is Strange on mobile works surprisingly well.
Asphalt 9 looked insane on phones.
Donut County, a hole that grows, genius.
Vignettes is a strange little gem.
Great list, played half of these on the train.
Gorogoa is a work of art, hand-drawn puzzles.
Alto's Odyssey is so relaxing.
PUBG Mobile changed mobile gaming forever.
