good ol' tetris
Night of the Full Moon is incredible.
If you have a rooted phone, an older android version, or the ability to access the android/data folder to move files around, I hear some pvz2 mods are pretty good. Only ones I can personally say are good are Refloureshed and Eclise, though it's been a long time since I've played Eclise. Both are harder versions of vanilla.
Alto - very calming and engaging game where you go down a mountain on your snowboard trying to catch llamas and do aerial tricks. Excellent vibes, no bothersome ads or micro transactions i think.
I'm sure it's possible to find older versions of the Alto games but recently they added forced video ads.

Swordigo is the single decent mobile game. Still, I didn't expect to see it already mentioned. Neat!
Death road to Canada
I Love Hue and I Love Hue Too. Also, My Friend Pedro. That one's pretty short though.
Board game adaptations tend to be good. Everdell and bottom of the ninth for preference.
If you like puzzles, horror and all things weird, definitely try some of the games by Rusty Lake.
The entire Cube Escape series is available for free (a sort of excape the room puzzle).
Reigns is quite fun
There's an app I really like called Minireview, focused on finding and reviewing mobile games.
Atomas is pretty fun, it's super simple and looks really good
Slay the Spire. Join us.
- Another vote for "Slay the Spire", have bought it for all platforms and wasted too much of my time
- Horizon Chase Turbo is a very good arcade racer
- Danmaku Unlimited 2 and Danmaku Unlimited 3 for bullet hell shmups
Not arcade style, but Final Fantasy I-VI pixel remasters are IMHO great on phones.
Super Auto Pets is one I like
There are plenty of puzzle-style ones like Sagadoku/Blockudoku, Minesweeper, etc.
Super auto pets is incredibly based
Just passing by to say that with a little fiddling, you can get Morrowind running on your phone, touch screen controls and all if you don't have a gamepad.
For some ungodly reason CA also ported Rome and Medieval 2 Total War - these are certainly not the best UIs ever, but it's pretty hilarious to see how far you can push the hardware.
Peglin is super fun. It's wood-described as a peggle rouglike
Fancade is also great. It's an open engine for little arcade games, so there's always something new to play. There's different modes like an adventure mode and a battle mode. There are IAP's but they're purely optional and very unnecessary.
I Love Hue, both 1 and 2
Cultist Simulator
I use cutlist optimizer to figure out the best way to cut plywood panels, this confused me, as it's not a game. CuLTist is different than cuTList
Twenty is my go-to. Blockus clones are fun too, and there are a lot of game modes.
This Ars article turned me on to it. Maybe click through some of his other suggestions-

All games I'm going to mention aren't sending me any notifications.
Square on top is a bit like jump king, and let's you disable 'unwanted' Ads. You're still able to watch ads for your own gain, but dont have to.
Divineko is a fun shape drawing/reaction game that has very fair ad placements IMO.
Xeonjia is an ice puzzle game (you walk in one direction until you hit a rock) that reminds me a bit of PokΓ©mon with its art style. I dont think it has any ads.
Those three are my go to's currently.
My favorite is Time Surfer. The core mechanic is basically the same as Tiny Wings, but the theme, artwork, levels, etc are all very different. I especially enjoy the chiptunes!
Kingdom Rush has been fun and not needy. (The first one?)
Ive tried the second and it's good too. Pretty fun tower defense and no need to buy anything or watch ads.
Ignoring the arcade style preference: i like Cats are Liquid: A Better Place and Cats are Liquid: a Light in the Shadows
They are 2 platformers with abstract graphics, abilities and a sad(extremly confusing) story
