Looking for retro games to play while on a bus/train. Any retro console.
Final fantasy tactics
I’ve been replaying Link’s Awakening on my phone using a gbc emulator, you could try that. I’ve also just found Winlator so I might start also playing Sam and Max, you might see if those point you in any directions.
Advance Wars series
Pokemon or other turn based games that were originally designed for portables usually work great for a commute! Also monster hunter, I played a lot of that on the subway back in the day on my 3DS. Thr PSP games might be easy to emulate.
You could try Heroes of Might and Magic 3 on an Android Phone with VCMI App installed. Requires that you purchase Heroes 3 from gog.com. Runs pretty well, but there are some elements that are pretty small. Ideally you are familiar with the game or similar games because it has some complexity.
