Seems more like a mobile game to me, I mean that in a good way. That being said it one of the best free games on Android and the perfect retort to the idea that free games on Android suck.

HyperRogue is one of my favorites. You can download it for Android here. It uses hyperbolic geometry instead of your typical Cartesian grid, which makes the game very interesting. It's also very puzzle-like. Because it's a 1-hp roguelike and deterministic, you have to plan out to moves intelligently.
HyperRogue and HyperRogue Gold - if you like roguelikes or puzzles or just really unique interesting games. The free version has no ads or iap but is several updates behind the paid version.
Some other chill free games with no ads and no iap:
Dungeon Cards.
Vector Pinball.
Hydranought.
HyperRogue is phenomenal. It takes a bit of curiosity and persistence to get into it, but there's a ton of content. The free version is just an older version of the full game, slightly fewer lands but still enough content to be rewarding for a good hundred hours or so.
It's a bit different from the classic RLs (plays more like a procedural Deadly Rooms Of Death), but HyperRogue is pretty good to play on android. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roguetemple.hyperroid&hl=en http://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/

HyperRogue is worth a look by anyone who likes roguelikes. The free version is completely free and the paid version has more updates. The depth is tucked beneath it's exterior since it has a virtually endless open world.
Curse of Yendor has interesting environment effects.
If you want an innovative mechanic in a roguelike, try HyperRogue - the entire game takes place on a hyperbolic plane, a physically impossible geometric concept where lines can be infinitely hyperparallel and a small sidestep can send you careening far away from where you planned. Certainly takes some work to fully wrap your head around the geometry alone, let alone all the unique zones and enemies of the world.

Each tile you move to transforms you into a different weapon: on a Blades hex you can slice enemies on either side of you, on an Arrow you can launch yourself through two enemies in a row.

Some good free games:
HyperRogue - infinite open world, very different from Siralim. Free version has no ads or iap but is several versions behind the paid eddition. Its a little opaque at first, I found this video helpful for the basics https://youtu.be/vVA1Z335Edk
Caves (Roguelike) - a little bit of mining and some RPG elements thrown in. Very engaging. It has iap but they only go up to $5 and are there to support the dev.
Else buy DraStic and play Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky and Shiren the Wanderer. Fantastic games.
