Thanks. I've heard of Peglin, but it's got kinda mixed reviews on the web. So I'm not too sure about adding it to the list.

Have you played it for some time, and still enjoy it? Some reviewers said it lacks content for a $10 game.

I consider it a faux democracy. It still has the semblance of one, with people voting, believing they matter and that they have actual free speech, but the masses are being, increasingly less subtly, controlled by media corporations and rendered incapable of critical, independent thinking by an ever decreasing quality of education.

Don't be fooled though! This isn't happening in the US alone. It is widespread all over the globe. The US is simply doing it in a smarter, more cunning way, while leading the wealthy 1% in other countries by example.

There's a single transaction to remove ads. So on the Play Store it will show with "contains ads and in-app purchases". It might be debatable, but I personally consider these type of games same as "premium paid", because to have the full experience without ads you need to pay once.

I'll fix it with better wording.

That's great! Hope it can be helpful :)

I will start including FOSS games into this list soon, labeled as such for clarity.

Also, here is my paid games list in case you find it appropriate to pin this one too.

Cheers!

I don't know how I missed that... Thanks!

Hey! I hope so too, but I'm sure Reddit itself will do most of the legwork for us haha! They're going the way of the Xitter.

And BTW thank you for reminding me Lemmy existed and I should have gotten on it long ago!

Ye I'm all for one-time paid games! I'll drop my premium games list here tomorrow

You're welcome :)

Thanks! OpenTyrian is obsolete, unfortunately. I will add OpenTTD.

I think it's paid on the Play Store and called Achikaps Pro?

Thanks! Would this be helpful for cross-posting to that community? My goal is to have a post showing in these 2 communities, and when I update the original one in this instance, the update will automatically carry on to the community in the other instance.

I tried cross-posting using a function in the Summit app, but the updates don't carry on... Do you know how I could achieve this?

Excellent recommendation! I'll add it to the list, thank you.

Yup! It's there in the list and a great collection :)

I changed them to the ! links - see if that works

They do work now!

While I enjoy emulation, it is kinda OT for this list.

Also, is it me or the two links in your comment are broken? It seems like they both miss an "h" in "https".

Thanks for the recommendation, but it clearly doesn't match the entry criteria. This list is for people who abhor seeing ads and microtransactions of any kind.

This game, which I'm sure is great, should be part of another category of games: those with bearable ads/IAPs. I've been thinking about compiling such list, but it'd be incredibly tricky and time consuming to discern what's fair from what's annoying or predatory.

You're welcome! Have fun :)

Hey, thank you for this great list!

You're welcome :)

Do you think you could maybe add a small description for every game?

Sorry, I won't do that. I think it's easy enough to click on the links and check all the info on the Store, with pictures and description. Furthermore, I did not play all these games as they're user recommendations, so it'd be too much work for little benefit.

Should be fixed now. Let me know if I forgot something!

They both always looked the same for me, but once I tried on Obsidian I could see the difference! I think it depends on what app the formatting is displayed on. Thanks, I'm gonna fix all headers
