I was just browsing the Google Play Store and I am getting frustrated seeing games being tagged with the genre, but aren't actually simulating anything. E.g. Idle Miner/Mining Tycoon (can't remember name). Nothing in the game is accurate or even tries to represent real life. It even has cartoon graphics. Now I'm not getting mad about the games themselves, just the fact that they are being labelled as sims. Anyone else annoyed by this?

Play store is a shitshow. It's so hard to spot the few actual gems in the absolute avalanche of ad-ridden asset flip time wasters that have the only goal of harvesting your data or running a monero miner in the background. The chances are better with paid games, but even then it's hit-or-miss.
I gave up on mobile gaming long ago.

I haven't played a decent mobile game in ages. How else am I supposed to get my dopamine fix ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜‚. I am currently enjoying the small open source games on F-Droid however.

The Mobile port for Final Fantasy Tactics is still superb. The UI is a bit outdated but the strategy game itself is not.
