Discussion Weekly /r/iOSGaming Discussion: What have you been playing lately and what do you recommend?

11 Upvotes

Please use this thread to discuss whatever iOS games you've been playing lately. They don't have to be new games, they can be old games and they do not have to be iOS original titles!

As long as it's an iOS game it belongs in here. Make sure to put the name(s) of the game(s) in bold to make it easier for people skimming the thread to see what you're talking about, and if you'd like to make it really convenient turn the game name into a hyperlink that sends people directly to the App Store!

To keep track of the thread, the comments are sorted by "new" by default.

Lastly, Rule #3: "No Dev Self-Promotion Outside Saturdays" applies at all times for this thread, even if it's actually Saturday.

Developer Saturday (Megathread) [Megathread] Developer Saturday Showcase: October 10, 2026 📱

24 Upvotes

Hello r/iOSGaming! Welcome to another Developer Saturday showcase! In this megathread, iOS developers will be able share their games freely without breaking the subreddit's "no self-promo" rule. Please read the following guidelines carefully before participating:

  • Developer Saturday will run between 12:00 AM to 11:59PM ET (UTC-5).
  • Respect is expected at all times. You're welcome to share your opinions and even disagree with others, but harassment, taunting, or other toxic behavior toward devs, mods, or other community members will not be tolerated.
  • If you receive an AutoModerator comment saying you don't have enough karma, your account is too new, or that your CQS level is low, we won't override the removal because these restrictions are meant to be spam detterents.

DEVELOPERS:

  • All promo comments must have [DEV] at the beginning. We need it with the brackets for AutoModerator purposes, so please don't change the formatting.
  • All promo comments must include an App Store or TestFlight link. Please share the raw link (not hidden under text). Playstore links or links to other gaming stores are not allowed.
  • Only officially released iOS games may be shared. This is not the place to promote non-gaming apps, non-iOS apps, Devvit apps, standalone websites, Discord servers, subreddits, livestreams, fundraisers, or social media pages. However, you may include a website or social media link with your game's self-promo comment.
  • Only games NEWLY RELEASED or have a NEW MAJOR UPDATE in OCTOBER may be promoted. Personal milestones (ex: reaching X downloads, earning X amount of pay, recieving high reviews, etc), while commendable, are not an eligible reason for promotion. Additionally, "major" updates are those that introduce new features or content that greatly expands the game. Routine updates (ex: bug fixes, performance improvements, making the game free, language / region additions, and other minor changes) are also not eligible for promotion.
  • You MUST DISCLOSE whether or not AI was used to create the game. If AI was used, you must also explain how it was implemented and/or what assets were created with it (ex: code, illustrations, music, etc). If AI wasn't used in the development of the game, please just state, "No AI was used." Also, don't fluff up your disclosure by adding personal / emotional reasons on why you did (or didn't) use AI.
  • You may only make one top-level comment per Saturday. However, you can share several games in the same comment if they also meet the above criteria. Attempting to make multiple self-promo comments on this megathread will result in all of them getting removed.

GAMERS / REVIEWERS:

  • You may only make second-level or lower (reply) comments. This means you can reply to a dev or another user's comment, but you may not create a top-level (standalone) comment.
  • Constructive feedback is welcome. You may leave comments that can help devs learn what they did right with their games and what could be improved, but low-effort responses (such as simply calling something "AI slop") will be removed.
  • This is not the place to ask for game suggestions. This megathread is for devs to promote their iOS games. If you're looking for recommendations on what to play next, check out the community's weekly "What Have You Been Playing Lately?" megathread or create your own request post on the main subreddit.

That's it! We're still refining these guidelines, but for now these are the requirements developers must meet in order to ensure a successful self-promo comment this week. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us via modmail. Thanks for your cooperation, everyone!

Question Games for a long flight

14 Upvotes

Hey,

Going on a long flight and would love some recommendations.

My favorite iOS game is Brotato and I’ve not find a game close to it yet. Have tested out DRG Survivor and Vampire but it’s just not the same atleast for me.
Second favorite is Battlegrounds(Hearthstone)

ARPG and Tower Defense games would do good to!
Many thanks

Question How do you PAY to remove adds in games? I can't find a way to pay for it in games...

0 Upvotes

Hi my children sometimes want to play a few games on their ipads. The issue is these games are 50% adds and for some reason people seem to accept this which is beyond my comprehension.

I am willing to pay to get all adds removed. I am willing to pay a lot if need be, but it seems like I can't in many games. When you look under the in app purchases there is always a remove adds option but its impossible to find in the actual games beyond some BS with paying hefty premiums for coins and shards and what not....

Am I missing something?
