Mobile strategy feels better suited to a phone when a short session still contains one useful decision. A readable interface helps, pausing is optional, and progression shouldn’t play the game for you.
Which games get that balance right? I’m especially interested in tower defense, and in the one design choice that makes a game work well on a phone.

I’ve only played it on PC and Switch, but Into the Breach is one of my favorite strategy games and the interface is excellent on touch. The randomized campaigns of short turn-based maps is excellent for short play sessions, and has a ton of replayability with a lot of unlockable squads.
Sadly AFAIK it’s only available in mobile for Netflix subscribers. But if you are one it’s free.
