Shattered Pixel Dungeon, Endless Sky, and Mindustry (especially that last one, which I haven't seen anybody else mention yet).

I get all my games from F-Droid, not any commercial app store.

Mindustry is such a gem. It's cross platform too, You can find it here

How is Endless Sky on Android?
I've been playing Escape Velocity/Override/Nova for as long as they've been a thing, and have done like 3 laps on Endless Sky on Linux as they've added content, the most recent one firmly placing it as the best execution of the genre for me, but I'm not sure how it would translate to a little touchscreen device.

I play on both Linux and Android, so I can directly compare. The UI buttons are a little small and the combat is a little different because you're poking the screen where you want to go instead of using arrow keys, but it's equally fun on either platform.

Wow. EV is a name I haven't thought about in a long time. What a classic that was.

I've started to play endless sky today, really enjoying it so far! Although I'm playing it on my mac but still
