Video games are the perfect way to unwind, but they can also be pretty time-consuming. As much as I’d like to, I can’t always sink hours into massive RPGs or spend hours playing online games. That’s why I’m a huge fan of idle games. Since these games basically play themselves, I can get in gaming sessions even when my schedule is packed.
If you’re struggling to find time for gaming, you’ll have a blast with these awesome mobile idle games. From action-RPGs to slice-of-life adventures, this list has a little bit of everything. Need even more suggestions? Check out

Imagine a semi-idle version of Diablo, and you’ll have a pretty good idea of what it’s like to play Nordicandia. Not only does it have tons of amazing loot, but it even has a season system that gives you specific milestones to work towards. The character customization and crafting system have incredible depth, so you’ll never run out of ways to power up your characters.

This strategic idle RPG feels like a fairy-tale version of AFK Arena. The turn-based combat system is terrific, but it’s the vibrant visuals that really make this game shine. While you’ll build a solid party through standard gameplay, there are also gacha summoning mechanics you can use to unlock a huge roster of characters. The character designs are varied and fantastic, so you’ll want to see as many of them as you can!

Who said idle games have to be easy? Witch and Council is an addictive RPG with some surprisingly tough boss fights. While the game’s enemies aren’t always easy to beat, there are endless ways to upgrade your characters, whether you’re boosting their stats, learning new skills, or summoning companions to fight by your side. You can turn on auto-battle at any time, but it’s hard to put this title down!

Lots of games ask you to face off against powerful enemies, but Guitar Girl doesn’t have any fighting at all. In this heartwarming idle clicker game, you’ll help a shy girl become an online music sensation! Whether you’re adding new fans, learning new songs, or upgrading your guitar, every click brings you one step closer to stardom. The guitar music is also really soothing, so it’s great to have on in the background.

This strange and silly adventure game is unlike anything I’ve ever played. It stars a time-traveling snail that must save the world from a terrible fate. While you start out as an ordinary snail, you’ll eventually gain access to mutations and power-ups that turn you into an unstoppable warrior. When you’re not busy saving the world, you can grow food and entertain guests at your base!

I’ve never played the original Tap Wizard, but I’m absolutely hooked on Tap Wizard 2. It feels a little like a twin-stick shooter, but instead of guns, you sling magic spells! Your wizard will take on hordes of enemies, earning new spells and abilities along the way. If you’re defeated, you’ll travel back in time, taking your power-ups with you. I can’t get enough of the gameplay loop, and since it’s updated regularly, there’s always new content to check out.

RPGs can be a little overwhelming, but Melvor Idle distills the genre down to its most essential and addictive elements. Instead of exploring a vast world, you’ll spend your time pouring through menus. Whether you’re farming, crafting, or battling monsters, it’s the perfect game for anyone that likes to watch numbers go up.

Still don't get the appeal of idle games. Would rather have a game where I'm ACTUALLY playing. 🤷🏻

Even though I appreciate a good challenge, I don’t always have the energy to play something tough at the end of a long day.
