The Infinity Blade or Minigore series, for example, or anything made by Illusion Labs. These games are genius and most consoles don't even have a touch screen or utilise it well like some smartphone games do.

Also why do people look at me weirdly ๐Ÿ‘€ when I play games on my phone in public while waiting for something?

No one in their right mind would do proper gaming on a phone. Touch interfaces are shit.

But I enjoy those mobile-only games ๐Ÿ˜… How would I play them otherwise? And I think touch interfaces allow for some gameplay you wouldn't ever get anywhere else, like swipe actions and multi-finger gestures, which you can see in games like Infinity Blade or Fruit Ninja (or even True Skate, which seems to have quite a following, not my fave personally but I can't imagine that on any other device)

Nintendo Wii/WiiU/DS/Switch did it better.
