Some of Android's Most Interesting Games Aren't on the Play Store

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!
