The Infinity Blade or Minigore series, for example, or anything made by Illusion Labs. These games are genius and most consoles don't even have a touch screen or utilise it well like some smartphone games do.

Also why do people look at me weirdly ๐Ÿ‘€ when I play games on my phone in public while waiting for something?

I haven't no, I would argue you're not blocking the screen though, you're part of it. And using analogue joysticks doesn't sound even slightly intuitive in the way true skate is. I'm sure it's fun but doesn't sound like the same experience at all. When I say they're moreorless what your feet would need to do that'd because it's based on where you place them on the board and how you move them in relation to that.

Perfectly happy to disagree though as that's kinda my point in this thread, everyone likes what they like but a lot of people in here stating things as if their preference is just a fact.

Mobile games have a place and don't need to be the cash grabby advertising hangers that a lot of people think of when you say mobile game. You just need to hunt them down a bit more to find the good ones.

I like games of almost all genres and will happily sink 100 hours into a console/PC game too, but it feels like an oversimplification to write off mobile games as a whole.
