I’ve played most popular roguelikes like Balatro, Slay the Spire, Dead Cells, etc. So are there any good Android games that aren’t roguelikes?

    Yes, the term is often misapplied, but Balatro has the other key part of actually being a roguelike which is leveling up your build periodically from a randomly selected set of options. The bosses are also randomly selected. It very much is a roguelike

      Those are neat and trendy features, but I don’t see how they make it anything like Rogue or its ilk.
