Definitely Dungeon Warfare. I also REALLY enjoyed 80 Days, Egg Inc (if you're into clickers), Neo Turf Masters, Mini Metro, Shattered Pixel Dungeon, Sproggiwood, and Pacman256

Just FYI, once Caves of Qud is released on Android, I think that's gonna be my only answer for this question.

Afterpulse is a new to Android, match-based third person shooter from Gamevil that has some fairly impressive graphics, though the current list of supported devices is apparently quite limited though.

I've played about an hour and I think its quite fun if a little simple. No controller support however, though I found the touch controls to be less crap here than in similar games.

I play it off and on. Hope there's already a guild or someone makes one and tells us about it. I'm too lazy and don't think I have the in-game currency to create one myself.

Selfquoting on this because there's an update this morning: Starting today, the leadup to season 2 is a giant giveaway, starting today, among other things, they're giving away a free full set capsule at every level, so if you're gonna come back, do it now.

I've been playing this all week, thanks!

It has an energy system but it's energy per each character, so once you hit a good roster size it doesn't seem like much of a problem. Making decent progress this whole time although it always seems like I'm starved for gold.

That seems to be my problem with the game (Into the Badlands: Blade Battle), and since they hide the weekly stuff behind gold too it's either level dudes up or attempt to get more dudes. It's pretty fun though.

Do we have an alliance for it?

It's a really terrible tracfone (ZTE Valet) and it will barely run any games I've tried.

Any suggestions of games that have low requirements? I've only gotten a solitaire game to run well

Just looking through my app list for games that I think are either old or need low specs (and are at least decent).

250+ solitaire - duh
Anodyne - only played this for like an hour but I've heard great things about it. It's also on PC
Bean's Quest - really polished platformer. Also has a sequel that feels like it's more resource intensive
Beyond Ynth - surprisingly deep puzzle game, given the very simple ruleset
Border Siege - risk-like with loads of maps and I want to say decent AI
Condado - same as the board game San Juan
Little Healer - game that's meant to simulate the healer job in MMORPG instances. You have various healing spells and try to keep people topped up while they fight the (not shown) boss
Odd Bot Out - quirky puzzle platformer. Hard to describe
Patchwork - like the board game
Pixel Dungeon - roguelike. Many people say the variant Shattered Pixel Dungeon is more fun (and there are also other variants)
Pocket RPG - it looks fancy with 3D graphics, but it's also been released a really long time ago so there's a chance it might run
Pocket Soccer - really fun game if you're bored with a friend like at a bus stop or something
PUK - a bit hard to describe, fast skill based game.
Pure Chromatic Bloom - probably the best bullet hell experience you can get on a touch screen
Puzzle Retreat - it's... a puzzle game. You're given a bunch of boxes you can slide and you need to fill the board. Gets really tricky (and it's better than I'm making it sound)
Puzzles (use this link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=name.boyle.chris.sgtpuzzles&hl=en ) - a few dozen types of puzzles that you might find in newspapers
Space Trader - port of a Palm Pilot (lol) game where you fly around systems buying and selling things and fighting pirates, with some events sprinkled on top
Twofold inc. - one of those games like 2048. Turn based puzzler where you go for a high score until you die. Not my type of game but it might be yours
Westport Independent - by the maker of Papers Please. You're a newspaper editor in a dictatorship. You manage which articles to write, how to write them (not very deeply) and which writers you use.

If its anything like the other Infinity Engine ports you might be able to install mods on the android version. I was able to install over 30 large mods on BG2 and I haven't had issues. Keep an eye on the beamdog modding forums. Some of the mods i've used did not need editing to work with EEs despite their age.

I've been playing them on my s7 and haven't had too many problems. If you don't have a problems typing on your phones keyboard you should be fine. I honestly cant imagine playing this on the PC when i can get the exact same experience on my phone (mods included).
