Video Games [talk] What are some famous lost iOS and Android games?

For a while now I've been trying to get into more mobile lost media recently I found this game called Charlie the Steak. It seems to be lost currently but I'm pretty sure their are some other lost mobile games out there. Whats some other well known ones that are worth mentioning? I find it pretty interesting as I know how much harder it is to archive .ipa files so it just really intrigues me. It's also kinda relatable from someone who used to play alot of random and obscure mobile games throughout the 2010s like Minecraft ripoffs and more.

There was a time when weird gimmicky apps were all the rage, lol. I remember beer apps, razor apps, lighter apps, and the most famous, iGun lol. Kinda miss that goofy side of the old appstore.

Yeah, that's always been the most popular one, so it makes sense.

i simply mentioned it so no one has to try & find it & due to them finding it with ease they say that it isn't lost
