Game recommendations: Passive / Turn Based + Portrait Orientation + No IAP (or at least minimally invasive) (lemmy.world)

I'm looking for some game recommendations. I feel like a ton of these games exist but they're riddled with IAP. I don't mind paying a little to buy the game. I have the play pass but so many of these games are active involvement and landscape orientation. I like to have an extra hand free and landscape requires both hands on. But really want passive engagement. Like as soon as I stop playing the game is waiting for me. Example games:

Polytopia

Magnet Balls

Free Cell

Threes

Card Thief

Knights of Pen and Paper

Games like Slay the Spire (but portrait). Although I've never really found a Slay the Spire-like that didn't feel like a watered down version of STS

Oh sweet! All the play store screenshots were landscape. I'll check it out

It's absolutely fine in portrait, I also only play it like that.
