Vampire survivors. Perfect one hand food game
It's great that it can be played in landscape too if you want to pay more attention to it occasionally
Minesweeper and various solitaires, which are decent enough to pass time.
free and open source
- Puzzles (40 single-player logic games)
- Tap the black tiles (Touch the correct tiles to win)
- Anuto TD (Another Ugly Tower Defense)
- Open Flood (A simple but addictive flood fill game)
ads :/
I don't know if you'd call them completly mindless, as they're puzzle games of a sort, but both Mini Metro and Mini Motorways are great relaxing time killers to me.
Not really complicated, just making connections. A fair bit of downtime just everyone make their trips, relaxing music, simplistic visuals, easy to pick up and play.
Little alchemy 2, hyperburner, pinout
Cross me Nonogram is a fun one.
I've played 439 consecutive solitaire daily challenges.
That's ... impressive? Concerning?
Desert Golfing
Chess puzzles with lichess (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.lichess.mobileapp.free/)
Flow Free, and its spinoff games Bridges, Hex, Warps, and Fit.
The puzzles are kind of mindless and not that difficult, but I've really enjoyed it. You do have to pay to get rid of ads, but after doing so the user experience is excellent.
Idle Apocalypse, Tower of Hero, and when I'm not mad at them Pokémon Go
Infinite Loop (∞ Loop), Flow, Desert Golfing, Simon Tatham's Puzzle Pack, and various card games are some of the games I play just to kill time or keep myself stimulated while listening to something.
i am hooked to Crossy Road. (is like atari fogger, but better)
Magic Survival. It's mostly mindless until late game when you really start thinking about how you could survive any given map for an hour.
Lato, endless snowboard downhill game
Looks like that's just a rip off of Alto's Adventure
Extremely based, i love that game
I love when it says "you fell on your ass"
Dots is entertaining and mindless.
I haven't played it, but holedown looks very promising.
My personal favorite is Egg Inc, though it's a slightly different genre since it's an idle game.
Lato and Sand:box
On Android my mindless games are Haru Slide and Match Fun 3D.
2048 Blocks. Basically a 3D reimagination of 2048

Paper(.)io 2
Word Hero - basically boggle word find, but new game every 3 minutes and you score with 100 other players
I've been enjoying 4=10 lately.

I love the autopencil and statistics. The learning tools really helped me move up to harder puzzles.
It hasn't been updated in 10 years, but still my go-to: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.cactii.mathdoku
While not entirely mindless, I've been loving Void Bastards to wind down at the end of the day
I like farming games like Harvest Moons on emulators for when I'm bored.
