Sometimes I play the free versions of slot machines. OMG Puppies is a current fave.

Spoiler!
SimCity Buildit is on Android. I played it a few years ago. It drained my phones battery because I would sit and play for long periods of time. Then I bought a tablet so I can play games like this but I never did transfer over SimCity Buildit. I have been contemplating downloading it recently though.

My go to is the Talisman port of the board game.

Basic game is inexpensive and their expansions don't cost an arm and a leg ($5 each usually) and they keep adding content which can change the entire experience.

AI is a little dumb but the random draws throughout the game make each play through fun. Another one I liked was Guild of Dungeoneers if you like card style games.

I'm hooked on Risk , Global Domination. Just like the board game but quicker as the dice rolling is automated. Has some different game types too. I play it on my tablet so I can't speak to how playable it is on a phone.

Do you play against other humans or just an AI?

I've tried Risk on the phone/tablet and it's ok, but you really miss out on the whole point of that game. That is the simulation of world power structures and teaming up with the rest of the world to screw over your one friend.

You can do either but I find humans to be a lot more challenging and fun.

You can play against friends as well.

Anyone play SimCity Buildit pretty steadily? Would be cool to get a CP club together.

Another great game if you're into mystery/clue/task solving games with on your phone or tablet are the Room games from Fireproof. They cost money but are by far my favourite immersive style game. They're extremely high quality and well put together.

Mini metro especially the no fail mode that allows you to try to recreate great subways like London, Paris, etc. easy to setup and let run to see where to make adjustments.
