I stumbled across Baldur’s Gate I & II on the app store today and was strongly considering picking them up as something to do on my tablet. I’m interested in people’s opinions on those two, as well as other retro game ports available.

I never actually bothered to consider Android as a platform for retro gaming before, and I currently don’t own a handheld console, so I’d love any suggestions people have.

    I still question myself why did not I try it before as it changed my quality of waiting on different places like public transport by large margin:

    Try turn based games with Lemuroid (frontend for emulators on android). No gamepad required, always in your pocket, everything works out of the box.

    I’m playing psp Valkyria Chronicles and it is great. Such games are perfect format for phone, as anything where reaction and precision is necessary needs gamepad. And you either need to own a retro dedicated handheld and take it with you, or (if you have one) take cumbersome Steamdeck like handheld, which is not feasible for 30 minutes ride.
