I've seen clicker game on app store that asked for root permission for some reason. I noped and reported for good measure.
It's still on the store with 172k of something. It's is either 172k installs or 172k of people who left rating.
Surprisingly "I denied the access request and can play the game just fine." was somewhat common reaction in /r/incremental_games
I like extreme jobs knights assissant.

It's a cute simple game that you can play for short stints, like while on the toilet or laying in bed.
this one its an RPG but you're not the hero, you're the assistant picking up all the loot. It's great for burning free time.
Could this be it?
