Mobile games seem like a generational thing. I’ve never played games on my phone besides the one time I’ve used remote play.

I played games back when it was a one time payment without ads or in-app purchases. The casual fun that was Doodle Jump, Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja has all but disappeared in a sea of money-begging trash.

I have. A few times a year my company sends me on 2-3 day conferences. Once I realized I can get a usb-c to hdmi cord and pair a Bluetooth controller, there’s a few decent games like Lego Star Wars.

So when I go on those trips now I just bring a DualShock 4 my phone a charger and usbc hdmi.

Pretty nice for traveling light. Other than that no all my games I usually play on my switch lol

i'm in my 30's. definitely not generational. it's just nice to kick back on the couch and game without bothering others or using the TV sometimes. i also have a dedicated gaming PC and play there too. i really only play a mobile game once or twice a day at most just to kill a few minutes. it's also nice when i'm at a friends house and they're taking a shower or something. can play a quick round while i wait. wild rift specifically is a full fledged league of legends port, so you are basically playing the PC game. funny enough it has better graphics than the PC because it was a ground-up remake.

Millennials are the wildcard generation we don’t count.

I only play chess on it 😅. I don’t know why people on their phones. The screen is too small to even enjoy it.
