Play store is unusable tripe. I member back in the day there being websites and forums that actually gave honest insight into what was good and what was trash. Anything like that today? Where does one find the good android games nowadays while avoiding all the shovelware crap?

Simon Tatham's Puzzles will forever be the GOAT.

Heck, I've got it on both my android phone and my Palm PDA. Worth having it on both.

Dang. Nice. Having a Palm PDA with Simon's Puzzles in ~~2024~~ 2025 is epic. I would take that thing to parties...and, at the kind of parties I attend, it would make me royalty.

Oh I use it as an ADHD management tool! All the organization and productivity stuff of a smartphone with none of the distractions or dark patterns. Mine is a Sony PEG-UX50, top of the line for 2003 and distinctly 2000s Sony in appearance, function, and annoyances.
