Guild of Dungeoneering
A turn-based-card game, kind of dungeoncrawler. Not too complicated but hard to master :), PC-port, well done.
You draw and place cards with floor tiles, monsters and treasures. Your adventurer moves through the dungeon on his own, when he encounters a monster you control the fight - you draw cards with the abilities of the dungeoneer and decide which to play. If you win, your adventurer may level up and collect loot - the loot gives you new abilities but you only have limited equipment slots, so decide well...
The dungeons have a number of quests like defeat the boss in a limited time etc
After you finish the dungeon your adventurer return to your guild with gold you can use to unlock more classes and items.
Items and levels are not carried over, so every dungeon is a fresh start.
Great game, can't recommend enough. Simple to understand, but quite challenging (for me).

Guild of Dungeoneering is a great one that's $5.99, so just out of your price range. Worth the price though. You're looking at over twenty hours with both DLCs and I got the DLCs for free by owning the game so I'm pretty sure they come included with the standard price.
Guild of Dungeoneering is a RPG/strategy/sim that definitely has plenty of content since it includes the base game plus two expansions.
HOLY CRUD. Excuse the caps, but these offers are unbelievably poor. DO NOT BUY.
Here, if you have a PC, buy this: http://store.steampowered.com/bundle/727/The_Witcher_Trilogy/ THE ENTIRE Witcher trilogy bundled for LESS than the price of the second offer. This will give you HUNDREDS of hours of gaming nirvana.
If you still want to stick to gaming on your phone, I highly suggest Guild Of Dungeoneering. Brutal roguelike with a TON of RNG, and the mobile version includes ALL the DLC that the PC got, absolutely free of charge. I have over 60 hours in this game so far, and am loving it. Once again, it can be purchased FOR less than any of the "offers" we are being presented with here. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.gambrinous.guildofdungeoneering&hl=en
So this might be exactly what you are looking for, but I found its combination of a turn based strategy, roguelike, and deck building game to be a lot of fun Guild of Dungeoneering.
You start with one hero that has a deck of different ability cards and you add to that deck by finding loot in the dungeon. You explore mostly randomly generated dungeons by placing randomly selected room cards.
Combat is turn based, the monsters playing ability cards and you choosing which of your abilities to use in response. There are some combos, like cards that give you bonus damage to an attack the following turn. Or cards that let you go before the monster which you can combine with a loot card that makes these type of fast attacks do bonus damage. My favorite class was based on a combo of drawing as many cards as possible to use with a card that makes you discard and do tons of damage.
It's roguelike in that the items and ability decks reset after beating a dungeon or dying. When a hero dies, you can't use that type of hero until you recruit another one.
You get some progression from keeping the gold, which you use to build your base, which gets you new hero types and items. Decent amount of game play and a pretty wide selection of hero types. Premium, no ads, no IAP.
I played Pixel Dungeon for the most time, but I also enjoyed the rogue-lite and deck building combination in Guild of Dungeoneering. You start out with one hero and unlock more as you play. Your abilities are cards, different heroes have different cards, and you'll find items with more abilities in the dungeons. It's rogue-lite in that each run your deck resets and the dungeons are mostly randomly generated by you choosing a path, but you earn gold that can be used for permanent upgrades. Death is permanent, but as you don't completely lose access to the unlocked hero type. It was something along those lines of needing to use other heroes while you recruited a new hero to replace the dead one. It's a a premium game, no ads, no IAPs.
I don't know if this will fit all your criteria, but I like Guild of Dungeoneering as a simple but fun deck-building dungeon-crawler.
Guild of Dungeoneering might be something, works great on phones and got an RPG element to it. Not much of a story though, so if that's what you want it might not be the thing you're looking for.
Guild of dungeoneering. Comandi una gilda di eroi che devono avventurarsi nei dungeon ma non nel modo che ti aspetti. In soldoni hai un mazzo di carte che giochi contro i mostri per ucciderli (attacchi, magie, carte speciali etc).
Puoi migliorare la tua guilda, sbloccare nuovi eroi, etc.
Compri il gioco completo, no transazioni ne nulla ed è anche piuttosto lunghetto. Costa 5,49€ (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.gambrinous.guildofdungeoneering&hl=it)
Guild of Dungeoneering is a RPG/strategy/sim that definitely has plenty of content since it includes the base game plus two expansions.
Good idea. I much prefer paid/premium games.
There are already a bunch of great ones listed, so going to try and find some that haven't been mentioned yet.
Guild of Dungeoneering. Combination of deck building and lite-roguelike with some RPG elements.
Tiny Guardians. Plays a bit like tower defense.
Xelorians - Space Shooter. The title says it all, space shooter.
Rebuild 3. Zombie themed city sim.
Dungeon Warfare. Tower defense.
The Sorcery games were mentioned multiple times, but I didn't see 80 Days. Interactive story.
Space Marshals. I haven't played the second one yet, so I can't comment on that one.
Bot, you're drunk :p
Some games I've enjoyed.
Guild of Dungeoneering is a combination of roguelike and deck building games. Plays like a turn based strategy game. Premium, no ads or IAP. The individual dungeons are fairly short, so would be good for one or two levels on a short break.
Wayward Souls reminds me of a roguelike action RPG. Premium, no ads or IAP. If you don't die, you can keep progressing, but I die so often this would make for a good break game.
Templar Battleforce is like a rebranded Warhammer 40k Space Marines game. There's customisation to party make up through skill and gear selection. Turn based strategy. Premium, no ads or IAP. Being turn based, you can pick it up whenever.
Crashlands is an action RPG with tons of crafting. Premium, no ads or IAP. This goes and goes, so you'd have to put it down.
The Room One, Two, and Three are a series of fantastic puzzle games. You interact with the room and puzzle items by looking and things from different sides. It's a really great experience and I found it to be pretty unique. Premium, no ads or IAP. You could probably do a puzzle or two on a break.
The three Kingdom Rush games are a great bunch of tower defense games. Premium, no ads, IAP but they are unnecessary. I played through all three and beat all levels on hardest setting without using any IAP. One level isn't too long, so you should be able to finish one on a break.
Tiny Guardians is like an inverse tower defense where your heroes move a path. Premium, no ads, IAP but they are unnecessary. It was just to unlock different hero costumes or something like that. Like Kingdom Rush, the individual levels are not too long.
Rebuild 3 is a strategy sim game where you try to rebuild a town after a zombie outbreak destroys everything. Premium, no ads or IAP. Pauses easily, but the later levels will take awhile to finish.
iOS (Universal) ($3.99): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/guild-of-dungeoneering/id1085272239?uo=4&mt=8
Android ($3.99): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.gambrinous.guildofdungeoneering&hl=en

I think you could play these one handed.
Guild of Dungeoneering is a combination of roguelike and deck building games. Plays like a turn based strategy game. Premium, no ads or IAP.
You can take as long as you want on each turn. There are no timers or anything rushing you. You tap to move, swipe to look at ability cards, tap to select ability. Should be OK for one hand.
Templar Battleforce RPG is like a rebranded Warhammer 40k Space Marines game. There's customisation to party make up through skill and gear selection. Turn based strategy. Premium, no ads or IAP.
This one is also turn based and you can take as long as you want on your turn. Tap to move and select which attack or ability you want your characters to use. Should be OK for one hand.
Rebuild 3 is a strategy sim game where you try to rebuild a town after a zombie outbreak destroys everything. Premium, no ads or IAP.
This has multiple options for how time passes. There is an option for the whole day, which is kind of like a turn, but I'd recommend playing with one of the slowly advancing hour options. You can just pause it at any time to issue commands, move people, equip items, research, etc. When paused, you can take as long as you want. It's all taps or hold and drag, which should be OK one handed.

You are the protagonist of an unfinished 1st person fantasy game, trapped in development hell. The designers (played by James Urbaniak, Ashly Burch, and Karen Dyer) are god-like, but so indecisive that they've given you no powers whatsoever. With the help of a mysterious disembodied voice (Stephen Russell) you must seize the tools of game development from these unworthy 'gods', uncovering more of the darkly comic story as you go. Rather than traditional puzzles with a single solution, the incomp... continue reading on RAWG

I feel like guild of dungeoneering should be on this list
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.gambrinous.guildofdungeoneering
If you enjoy Pokemon, you can emulate the Game Boy and Game Boy Advanced games. The GBA games play pretty well on a phone.
Card Wars looks like a deck building game. Like you start with a small deck of cards with units, spells, etc and add/remove cards to make something better. Another deck building game Guild of Dungeoneering is a combination of deck building and a turn based RPG with some rogue-lite elements. Each hero class has a different starting deck. You send your hero into mostly randomly generated dungeons where they can find items that give them new cards. If you win you earn gold to improve your base and get new heroes. Winning or dying resets their deck. There is small puzzle like elements to the game play. Example, your heroes move towards gold/treasure over monsters, so you can steer them based on how you build out the dungeons.
It's a premium game with no ads, no dumb timers/stamina/energy to limit gameplay, and no IAP.
Some other games, 10 Million and the sequel You Must Build A Boat. These are kind of matching games, but in these you slide entire row/columns instead of swapping adjacent tiles. Your character is going through a dungeon and to attack monsters you connect sword or magic tiles. You open chests by connecting keys, etc.
There is some RPG elements in that you find materia to upgrade your character in the first game and also your boat/base in the second. The game play can get a little hectic. They are both in the puzzle category, but they feel a bit more action than puzzle to me.
Both are premium games with no ads, no timers/stamina/energy to limit gameplay, and no IAP.
On the definitely puzzle side, the three "The Room" games are really good: One, Two, and Three. The game play is you looking around a room or at objects to figure out the various secrets. A lot of the things you rotate and manipulate. It we a really unique experience for me. You can do things at your own pace, so the gameplay is pretty relaxed.
All three are premium games with no ads, no timers/stamina/energy to limit gameplay, and no IAP.
You mentioned you had Knights of Pen & Paper installed, there is a sequel.
Guild of Dungeoneering
Turn based Dungeon crawler where you build the dungeon around the hero with Cards.
