Finding gems in the world of FOSS can be a difficult task if you don't know what you're looking for. However, I can easily say that my top three are Antimine, Shattered Pixel Dungeon, and Minetest.

Antimine is your typical minesweeper game but it's really well-produced and customizable. I hadn't really played minesweeper much before Antimine, but I find myself picking up Antimine pretty often.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is an awesome roguelike that proves rather challenging. The more you play it the better you become, and sometimes you'll get some really great RNG and it just feels awesome.

Minetest on it's own isn't much of a game as much as it is a 3D block-game creation engine. It's more or less the bones that make up a FOSS Minecraft, and with projects such as Voxelibre, it is a really fantastic Minecraft alternative!

What games do y'all play from F-Droid? Feel free to mention things that come from other repos than the ones that come with F-Droid out of the box!

I think Anuto TD (a tower defense game) is the best I've come across.

I also really like Gauguin (Sudoku-esque) and Lexica (word game) on the more casual side.

Don't know that it's on F-Droid, but Lichess is also high quality and open source.

Thanks, tried the tower defence, it's a bit boring right? I got to level 27 first try without even doing anything special and it took like forever. Free though so I'm not complaining.

Let me know when you get past level 80 😅

I didn't really think so, but to each their own! I like the progression from not being able to afford much, up to maxing out upgrades on each tower.

There's a speed multiplier to cut back on the waiting around. I mostly leave it around 8x speed so it's a little faster paced.
