Are there any decent android games out there that aren't based around the pay-to-win model?

F-Droid makes avoiding pay-to-win easy, but I make no guarantees on the degree to which you consider any of the games in its library decent.

I've played Dead Trigger and Real Racing, though not recently. You could buy stuff to improve your chances, not essential IICRC.

Do you consider any of them to be decent?

I quite like Hill Climb 2. Spent a few quid on it to pay them for all the time I'd spent and to cut the ads, but it balances opponents to your level so you don't really have to.

Alto's Adventure

Pretty sure we have vastly differing tastes when it comes to games. Some are amusing diversions, if I'm stuck with nothing else to do, but I don't recall anything that makes me actually excited or satisfied - though that's not easy without at least a keyboard.

If you like roguelikes, puzzle/boardgames, tetris-style, etc, you'll probably find something.

Oh, and there's a bunch of emulators, if you can be bothered setting them up, which may well enable some decent old games.

Would be good to find something, i dunno, engaging. With a decent story at least. And that isn't a thinly veiled platform for pumping adverts at me.

I don't even mind paying for games (I've got a fair bit of credit from Google Opinino Rewards bollocks).

I shall look at those.

I keep seeing adverts (in other shitty click-a-thons) for games that look good, but when you download them they end up being pay to win or so heavily filled with adverts that they're no fun.

Thanks for reminding me about Google rewards. Haven't had a questionnaire in ages, I'm sure if you don't open the app every so often manually it just forgets about you.

Edit: I wasn't wrong. Within 20 mins of opening the app I got a questionnaire. Not had one for 2 1/2 months.

Also helps to have location switched on. Get loads just for being stuck in traffic near a shop :'D

What'd he win?

He spent 90% of his money on cocaine and hookers. The rest, he wasted.

Next time we get some from that guy who posts about sandblasting machines for some kind of industrial application I will let it through again for you, though.
