I just thought it might be fun to write up a very little article recommending three of the free and open-source games I tried and loved from F-droid!
Not only do I spend a ton of time on Android systems because I review retro handhelds, but I also enjoy exploring the more unusual corners of the platform, especially when they involve open-source software and games. I’m a daily user of F-droid (and have convinced my whole family to do the same), and turning my attention to the gaming side of things seemed a fun idea for an article.
In this one I try and show off three games:
- Breakout 71
- Shattered Pixel Dungeon
- AAAAXY
Read on if you’re looking for fun F-droid games you can control easily (which itself is a damn miracle) with the on-screen touch controls.

And if you’ve got any recommendations, I’d love to hear them!
@PerfectDark Here are some that I’ve found on F-Droid. I don’t know if they’re on the Play Store, though.
* Vector Pinball: an oldy, but a goody.
* PipePanic: a Pipe Dreams clone.
* FlowIt!: color in all the squares. It’s harder than it sound.
* Ball2Box: get the ball through the obstacles, and into the box.
* IED: Minesweeper, but in 3D. Made with the Godot Engine.
* Gurgle: a Wordle clone.
* Roboyard: Move the robots around a maze to where they need to go.
