Just the community I needed to find! I was literally about to close lemmy to go look for open source games and ports for Android.

I started Shattered Pixel Dungeon and was having a lot of fun with it. It is the first real Roguelike I think I have gotten into. It takes a bit of learning, but it still feels pretty accessible. Definitely worth the free download to see if you enjoy it

So very similar vein, uses many of the same mechanics and a lot of the same framework is Pathos. I think it's really well fleshed out even though I haven't managed to get very far. Amazing depth and mechanics but initially it felt like running into a brick wall for me. But the tutorials are very easy to read in the game and you can tweak a lot to become a god in different ways so you can test out and try to understand mechanics. I think it's great fun and kinda like a deeper, grander Shattered Pixel Dungeon!

Sounds like I need to try it at some point, thanks for the suggestion
