Good coverage, well done! At least for the iOS games. Few more to add: Tiny Bang PDTA (please don't touch anything) Carcassone Tokaido Miracle Merchant Alchemy 2 Supertype Ordinary puzzles Auralux, Auralux 2
Joining the chorus of this being a wonderful idea. Maybe link to Metacritic or other respected reviewers? Thank you very much for this!
No IAP and no ads? How does a game studio should earn money then? Knowing the fact that business model of games are moving to free to play and than players are now reluctant more than ever to pay a decent price for a game but prefer spend 5x more little by little? Do you intend to reverse the trend? Real question, no trolling. How a game studio can make money with a F2P game? Or how can we make money from a free 2 pl…
I imagine the lowest-bullshit way to sustain an MMO would be a normal subscription. Though I'm not sure this is the list for you, regardless.

Here is my contribution (a webapp, a.k.a. a website) http://lalo.li/lsd/ coded it years ago mostly drunk on an island in Thailand, I now like to play it again on my iPad with iPencil. Github: https://github.com/franzenzenhofer/lsd (Warning: a single, dependency less CoffeeScript source file)

The flipside is that those games might have awkward controls or performance issues or not be well suited to short play sessions. But it might be interesting to have a column linking to the Steam page for games that were ported in either direction.

This is awesome, but I'm going to forget it exists, so: please take my email address and feed me notifications about when new games get added. (I might want to be notified immediately, weekly, or every N months.) Besides that, some minor nitpicks: - Infinite scrolling would be very nice to have - The ability to sort the columns by clicking the headers (eg, reviews) might be useful - I have some, uh, really old device…
> please take my email address and feed me notifications about when new games get added
Hmm, that might be a bit spammy, do you have an RSS reader? Maybe I could add a feed.
> Infinite scrolling would be very nice to have
I had something similar before but people complained that they lost their place when clicking on apps to go to the store. Maybe that's fine now that they open in a new tab, I'll rethink that.
> The ability to sort the columns by clicking the headers (eg, reviews) might be useful
Yep, that's something I removed when I added the filtering system and that I need to add back, thanks.
> something interesting is going on with the rating filtering. If I type in "4.8" and select Free under Android, I see 3 items
Hmm, that's odd. I will investigate, thanks!

I personally have paid money for no bullshit mobile games, and I know there are at least a few million people like me. Why is that hard to believe?
I want game devs to be able to make a living, but there's a difference between game devs who responsibly put in monetization and game devs just trying to squeeze every last cent through deceit and manipulation.
