I've never really played games on my phone - but since I now have a folding phone I'm going to give it a try. I've no interest in Candy Crush type games though.

On the PS5, the games I really like tend to be RPG - the Souls games / Elden Ring / Elder Scrolls and currently playing Baldurs Gate.

Any recommendations for these style of games on a phone? I know Baldurs Gate 2 is available but I'm not sure I want to start with that when I'm already playing BG3 on the PS5.

The list of games when I search Google is huge, so some recommendations would help. I prefer the graphics are not too "cartoon" but could live with it for the right game.
If they make use of a game controller, that's good (I don't own one, but would buy one).

Yep, found that last night and may download it although a lot of reviews suggest it's more about building a town than traditional RPG type behaviour.

Found "Pascal's Wager" - which is apparently a Souls type game. Certainly looks impressive from the trailer.

Downloading it now....

So far, I've downloaded :

Pascals Wager - Definitely Souls inspired. Brilliant graphics, familiar gameplay and looks very promising.

Eternium - much more of an action game but fun

And......

The original Doom! It looks absolutely shocking - it's hard to believe that these graphics were ever revolutionary. But I did play the original and loved it - and that counts for a lot. It's awful and yet brilliant. On my next flight, this is the game I will be playing smile

Just play Morrowind on your phone, it's awesome

Google open Morrowind and get playing

It's significantly better than any app!

I think I used this one:

or here:

And via reddit:

You'll need the game and it's a few GB on the phone too.

However it plays fantasitcly well, really easy to play with onscreen controlls.
