I know older titles are usually the topic in this community but a lot of the popular f2p games are getting pretty old now too, and if you’re like me you’ve been curious about some of them and even pleasantly surprised now and again.

There are many examples like League of Legends, Apex Legends, Raid: Shadow Legends etc and I usually get hooked on one and play it for some months or more. I’m not really trying to get into the “business” side of things, I personally very rarely purchase anything but if you do that’s absolutely fine too.

The current ones I play regularly:

  • PC - Enlisted - A WW2 shooter with vehicles like the Battlefield games. Same publisher and game engine as War Thunder and has been in open beta for over 2 years now. Kinda janky still but regularly updated and enjoyable.
  • Android - CUE cards universe everything (I forget exactly lol) - Fun deck builder but very grindy if you don’t buy shit. Pretty unique concept for a deck builder what I’ve come across. Short games too so good for a smoke break or the bus or whatever.

So, what do you play?

    PC - Path of Exile - This is an ARPG similar to Diablo 2. It has very well defined terms (outside of a few edge cases) that help guide your build creation. Lots of community support. They release a new league with content and updates every 3-4 months. While F2P, stash tabs are a useful purchase if you enjoy it long-term. I’ve been playing since 1.0 (over 10 years ago now)

    Android - Idle Obelisk Miner - There is some initial manual mining, but then you’ll unlock drones and bombs for mining. It’s better as a screen-on idler, but can be played screen off, but much slower. In terms of an idler, I feel the pacing is done very well. (30 days of play time in game as of now)
