You can play Quake 1 (quakespasm) on a gamepad. Doom (prboom) also works, but I never figured out how to setup gamepad controls properly. I think SuperTux 2 also works with a gamepad.
OpenTTD works, but requires a mouse and it probably runs too slow on original PinePhone. Hedgewars also requires a mouse, but I think it was smooth.
Super Tux Kart is too slow on original PinePhone. Minetest was also too slow I think.
Gnome's 2048 is ok and works on a touchsreen.
You could try OpenMW and see if it works (it probalby requires a gamepad or a keyboard though).
Mindustry might work and there is a high chance it has touch support, but I doubt it has an arm build for GNU/Linux (probably only for android), so you might need to compile it yourself.
