You can also add "little" objects like benches, recycling containers or trees in your near environment to the map that come with their own sets of questions

Two very charming (and not too expensive) roguelite games I haven't seen in the comments yet are Blazing Beaks and Dicey Dungeons... I played them on the Switch, but I'm sure they can also be purchased through Steam etc.

In Blazing Beaks, you play different birds with different characteristics and shoot your way through various levels while collecting useful items and annoying debuffs/handicaps like for example, "you cannot shoot while you run" or "every coin you collect deals 1 damage" These debuffing items are the core mechanic - you can collect and exchange them for some really nice stuff that helps you in the long run. Lovely pixel art and really great as a 2 player local coop!

Dicey Dungeons is a little hidden gem where you play as a little dice character and have to fight turn-based encounters in order to escape the dungeon of Fortuna. The mechanics are quite simple: Roll some dice and use them to deal out damage, shield yourself, poison your enemy etc. For example, you might start with a weapon that says "deal X damage points", so if you roll a 4 and insert it into the weapon slot, the enemy takes 4 damage points. There are a handful of different characters that all work differently (my personal favourite is the roboter where you have to gamble if you want to roll another dice to use in attacks, because once you roll too high, you lose the dice you already rolled for this round). Also, each character has a handful of different modes/rule sets so it doesn't get repetitive. Bonus points for a pretty art style, charming enemies and some catchy tunes!

Btw, Hollow Knight is not a roguelite but a metroidvania since the levels, items and encounters are not randomized and unique in every play through, but it is absolutely worth playing!

dude, I LOVE When I Dream! Also the idea of putting the draw pile inside a bedframe and covering the unused top of the cards with a pillow is so genius and creative!

It's interesting how Kyle Ferrin managed to develop such a unique, recognizable and charming art style that I when I looked at OP's picture, I instantly thought "huh, the art style of the third board game reminds me a lot of Root"

Not exactly an app, but a few years ago, I had a lexicography lecture where we used the website Lexonomy. The interface is quite easy to understand once you get the hang of it. I don't know how easy it is to use it and edit stuff there within a phone browser though.

what about Yoshi's Crafted World? easy gameplay, cute aesthetics and good co-op

maybe that's blatant self-advertising, but you might want to have a look at my origami community I created a few weeks ago (and if it isn't something for you, others might find it interesting)... no drama, no politics, just simple paper folding, I promise :)

Here's the link: !origami@feddit.de

 

Origami is a beautiful hobby that has been around for many, many centuries and while it originated in Japan, it is now well-known and loved in pretty much the rest of the world - partly because of its accessibility since the only thing you need to get started is a (usually) square piece of paper!

The Origami community is about sharing finished origami projects, asking questions or simply talking to others about this wonderful hobby. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a beginner, intermediate or expert, this place is for all origamists alike!

If you would like to join our little corner of the internet, here are some links that hopefully work for your instance:

!origami@feddit.de or feddit.de/c/origami

See you hopefully soon!

I like it! The composition as well as the colour palette (especially the orange sky!) reminds me a lot of The Great Wave off Kanagawa.

I'm not blind myself, but thank you for including a description of the comic!
