I would just like to share Cat Bird with all of you. An excellent mobile first platformer that shows that on screen buttons can work.

Microsoft Solitaire isn't awful.
The other games it advertises though...
Highly recommend Dawncaster if you like Slay The Spire / deck builders. I think I paid $6 for it and I've probably played 40 hours or so. Just an honest to goodness straight up good game that happens to be on mobile.
No gache/gems/freemium nonsense/etc.
The best mobile games tend to be ports. Stick Ranger is a good example.
Egg Inc. was alright but mostly yes.
Wait what? I understand the addictiveness and I spent probably a year of my life making eggs, but egg inc is just an above average idle game. It's problematic by it's very definition.

Been playing Oddmar, a fantastic platformer on iOS.
It’s fun to play on the phone, but getting a controller and playing on the iPad is chef’s kiss
No, you se-
Almost
Yes.
Yes they are.
Stay away from them on the whole, don't even bother discovering games through lists of mobile titles. Disregard any list that shows games that were not made mobile-first as a counter-example, those miss the point of the question.
Might not be your cup of tea, but I like Dungeon Village 2.
Sounds like Kairosoft?
Yep.
I have exactly one game on my phone. Bloons Tower Defense 6. Without a doubt a great game!
If you are into racing games, I can recommend these confidently:
- Rush Rally 3
- GRID Autosport
Both are quite challenging.
Postknight :D
The answer to everyone looking for a new game is Super Snail, I believe full release is Aug 4th? Enjoy!
Moonshades on android is a good knock off of heros of might and magic
There's an Android app called "minireview" which has tons of reviews of games on Google Play and helps filter out the garbage.
