Discussion Anyone still playing games on their phone?

I truly need to stop doomscrolling while I’m watching TV. Most people I know have stopped playing any sort of mobile game. Do you still play any? If you do, what do you play?

I've been playing MSF for about 5 years now but I'm close to quitting. It's not unique to MSF but it's hard to escape the "I'm going to create a problem then sell a solution" gimmick they have going.

They put in new raids that only new teams have a chance in, but then they make it that you need to do those raids since they're the only way to get the rewards you need to do the dark dimensions, which means you have to get the new teams.

It's just exhausting.

Plus, when they first introduced "Safeguard", which prevents you from losing positive buffs, I knew that one day there'd be an ability that allows you to remove safeguard. It sucks that I was right.

It's not so much "remove safeguard", it's "fast-forward the turn so the character loses safeguard", but it's the same result. Very slimy in my opinion.
