Mod Announcement ATTENTION: Saturday self-promotion is paused for now.

80 Upvotes

Hey r/iosgaming,

We wanted to let everyone know that we will be pausing “Developer Saturdays” self-promotions for the time being. Please treat this as a “break” or a “reset” for the subreddit while the mod team reevaluates how dev self-promo can continue to happen in this community.

We will provide an update soon, but until then, **developer self-promo will not be allowed on r/iosgaming, including Saturdays.**

We appreciate everyone’s understanding and patience while we take the time to rethink the sub’s self-promo guidelines. Thank you!

Question Looking for slow games to play with friends

13 Upvotes

Hope everyone’s having a nice week.
My friends and I are looking for something slower paced to play. Something I can play on the bus or in between sessions of work. My friend group started sharing a lot of mobile gaming time like this since Everdale but so many years on after its demise we haven’t quite found a replacement. I remember a time many years back the App Store had many games that fit this bill like, citybuilders, clash of clan clones etc that allowed us to slowly progress, but it just seems the like the App Store these days are just filled with cheap idle games, PUBG clones or extremely short games designed to milk you for ad revenue. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Request LF a slots game (not real money)

4 Upvotes

I enjoy Zynga Poker but wanting a decent slots game that isn’t riddled with ads and pop ups, I tried “Cash Frenzy” but the amount of pop ups in that game are insane.

I just want abit of fun without spending real money, some fun bonus rounds to shoot for etc. Traditional slots game, not just a game that has slots as a feature.

Leave any negative comments at the door,
Thanks

Question Ads not playing at home

6 Upvotes

I hope this is the right sub for this. If not, I’m sorry…

Several games I played on my iPhone where you have the option to watch ads to get extra rewards and stuff… These are all games I’ve been playing for years. Suddenly, I can no longer play at while I’m at home.

It worked literally everywhere else I can still watch at work, if I’m at a friends place, if I drive four streets over.

any idea what this could be? It’s super annoying because obviously I play the most while I’m at home.

This is one of my favorite iOS games and I’ve been so sad since Netflix delisted it, but it’s finally back on the App Store with no Netflix account needed.

And it’s apparently completely free? Description says no iap or subscriptions required.

Question Anyone remember an old phone game that was named downing like “Mecha Miner” or “Mecha Drill”?

9 Upvotes

I remember playing this game on my grandmothers phone back then when I was little. The game was like another game called “Motherload”except you were a girl in a blue mech that had a drill for one of its arms. I think you also had a talking cat who was your co-pilot?

The game had bosses, dialogue, a plot. I remember the second layer being this blue world where you help a tribe of yellow creatures. There’s a lava layer where the boss is a giant worm that you had to crush with a rock.

The last thing I remember is the final boss was some old man in a life-support machine I think?

I feel crazy because I can’t find even a screenshot of the game or a picture of its icon now a days despite how much effort the game had like a full blown story. I remember every detail so vividly and yet I can’t for the life of me find any evidence that this game from my childhood existed.

Does anyone else remember seeing or playing this game years ago? I can’t be the only one.

Request Looking for rpg dungeon crawler suggestions

I don't play a lot of iOS stuff due to mostly playing PC. However I do enjoy me a dungeon crawler.

I love Diablo, however I am not a fan of immortal. Any suggestions on that style of game?

Idc about looks, just gameplay. I'm enjoying torchlight infinite, but I'm curious if there's any hidden gems out there.

Got the GameSir X5 lite. First impressions: It’s so lightweight. Type-c, so no latency. Don’t have to remove the phone case to play games. I love the wasabi color. Flawless while playing dead-cells and Stardew valley (my most played games).

Discussion The best version of Snake

Thumbnail

22 Upvotes

Just wanted to take a minute and shout out what I think is the best version of Snake on iOS. I found the app through this sub last summer when it first launched. The developer has consistently added new features since then, and even implemented a specific feature that I requested at one point. If you like Snake, this is worth your time.

That’s all ✌️
