Here we’ll simply share the names of some cool Libre/OpenSource ANDROID-GAMES that are available (Or should be made available) on Fdroid
Box Stacker
A physics puzzle-game.
Join the sticky ‘tetrominoes’ to move a ball/box/car to the scoring zone.
Includes online leaderboard to view the solutions of players around the world. A faster finish with less total pieces is better.
Challenging and fun game, with a quality physics model.

Talking about Games that need to be FOSSified, I think it would be cool <u>if we had FOSS clones of</u>:-
- Plants vs Zombies
- Angry Birds
- Lonely Hacker
- Sim City (Any City-Building game)
These two are already FOSS,
but I would be happy if H-Craft Championship could be added to f-droid. (basically wip3out hover-racing)
Also, Gravity Defied is an excellent trials-bike mountain climber, similar to xmoto. It currently does not install for me in f-droid.
Not on android, but it does have a web version with touch controls.
If we are talking a about apps we wish were Foss here is my list:
-
Bad piggies
-
Stumble guys
-
Age of Empires (now discontinued but I want a spiritual community continuation)
-
Clash of clans
-
For an Angry Birds clone, check out Apple Flinger
For a SimCity-like game, check out OpenTTD (Transport Tycoon Deluxe)
I enjoyed Space Trader.
Unciv, 4x civilization game.
on F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.unciv.app/
Shattered Pixel Dungeon, popular roguelike (as in, actually like Rogue)
Pixel Dungeon a rogue-like that is very like Rogue.
Since this is not updated or maintained anymore, there is a spin off with very active development: https://github.com/00-Evan/shattered-pixel-dungeon
Ooh, great point!
Great minds think alike.
Luanti a game engine that runs an Open Source massively moddable Minecraft clone, among other games.
This one deserves a nice big bold underline, this project has already come such a far way!
Xeonjia: Ice Adventures, extremely cute sliding-ice puzzle game
Mindustry, factory based sandbox tower defense (mobile Factorio)
It isn’t quite like Factorio.
It is better
How are the mobile controls?
Honestly I much prefer playing on desktop, but it’s playable on mobile if a bit frustrating.
Very frustrating for people with fingers.
(☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
Playable for sure, but in bigger battles its complicated to keep an overview over big maps
on F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/packages/io.anuke.mindustry/
Simon Tatham’s Puzzles contains many classic puzzle games and many more that are destined to be future classics.
Luanti, Mindustry, vector pinball, super tux cart and Tux rider.
Honorable mention: Tailscale+Moonlight (game streaming)
vector pinball is amazing
I never play it as it gets boring after a while.
Cool app though
Regex Crossword. Unfortunately it doesn’t have as many puzzles as the non-FOSS alternative.
I really want to figure out how to play Xonotic on mobile using cod-mobile style claw touchscreen controls…
