So, a relative that all she plays in her tablet is solitaire, saw ads of some mobile crap full of microtransactions and now wants some of those. I said i'd check if there was games kinda like those (all puzzles of some sort), and would highly prefer if they're all FOSS to avoid or at least highly reduce the chance they're gonna turn into microtransaction-laden crap or start syphoning all the data in the phone or something. But given that i don't really play in mobile i have no idea what's available. Checking on F-Droid it just lists every game in the "games" category, "Show all 467 packages", not separated by genre or with ratings or anything Is there a place to look up this kind of thing?
