Android games recs

Since I am currently stuck at home again (fever since Wednesday), I am looking for things that are not too complicated to take the boredom away. I'm mainly watching 30 Rock because it's fun and not too exhausting, but I'd also like to play something on my smartphone.

Recent games I have enjoyed: Hook, The Room, Osmos, World of Goo

Things I tried and didn't like: Don't get fired, Fallout Shelter (boring after two days)

Anyone playing anything nice?

I'm enjoying the new King game, Paradise Bay. Some of the characters are racist stereotypes, but it's constructive trading and building and farming and fun (and free).

+1 Makes a nice change from Hay Day (I love HD but I'm at a level where the game can be grueling no-fun).

If you like match-3 games, Marvel Puzzle Quest is nice. It's your typical match-3 but you can use Marvel supes' powers to do other actions so there is some strategy too. Also a freemium but can easily be played without buying anything.

Adding Puzzle and Glory which just came out and was made by the MPQ team but is much nicer as it has RPG/D&D elements.

I am unreasonably addicted to Kairosoft games. I even like them when I have no actual interest in the thing the game is based on (e.g. I am playing Pocket League Story, which is football).

I was going to recommend Mini Metro, but it seems the Android version has not been relesaed yet. :( I also suspect it may be more of a "tablet" than "phone" game.

this is a text-based browser game that I have found vastly entertaining (Kittens Game -- you are a kitten in a catnip forest, it's resource management, eventually "science" is a resource and I think you can collect...unicorns? I personally have not gotten to unicorns yet.)

Kingdom of Loathing is another fun free-to-play browser game with a side of humor; it's been around for awhile but is still going strong as far as I know. I don't know if the humor is up your alley, but it can help with time passing while you decide? IDK.

I haven't played KoL in years and I'd forgotten how good it is. And I just tried Kittens Game and love it.
