In a word, "No". Which is why I do not play games on mobile or tablet devices at all.
I feel they've been cheapened by the so-called free-to-play model, annoying pop up ads and, of course, an overabundance of microtractions, which have sadly trickled over into the mainstream games market as well over the years due to the greed of the games publishers.
If the mainstream games industry ever gets as depressingly bad as the mobile games industry then I will just give up gaming entirely and find something else to do with my time.

Just the one for me and I can't remember its name.
*goes off to research*
Ah, that's it. Puzzle Craft. No longer available on iOS as it's a 32-bit app but it does work on Windows via the Microsoft Store.

I think there were tons of great videogames on iOS. Unfortunately, nearly all of them disappeared once iPhones moved from 32-bit CPUs to 64-bit.
My favorites would be Jeff Minter's Minotaur Project series. Minotaur Rescue and Gridrunner were my favorites, but they're all great and I miss them dearly.
More recently, there's an indie classic called Forget Me Not that's available on iOS once again, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. It's one of my all-time favorites, a beautiful mashup of a Roguelike dungeon crawler, a shoot-em-up, and a Pac-Man dot muncher.
PS: Fruit Ninja was good dumb fun, Jetpack Joyride and Age of Zombies helped to keep me sane on plane trips (I'm a big baby thanks to turbulence), and there was this one retro game where you were a kung-fu dog and you knocked down enemies that appeared to your left and right, just simple reflex action, but very addictive.
PPS: And, of course, who could forget this modern gaming masterpiece? This may very well be humanity's crowning achievement. Move over, Buzz and Neil!

I really don't like playing mobile games.
That said I've been playing Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes for years now, along with Pokemon GO (installed but mostly ignored now)
These are games I play while I'm shitting up on the mezzanine floor bathrooms.
I can't really deal with the touch controls and would prefer KB/M and Controller, so by default I play on PC/Switch/PS5.

Dragon Quest 3 through 7 are all excellent games on mobile.

Pretty much all of the Kairosoft games.
Game Dev Story, Hot Springs Story, Dungeon Village, Mega Mall Story, and Grand Prix Story being stand outs to me. Most Kairosoft games are paid downloads with no IAP or ads. There are outliers though. Those ones are usually not very good. Some of them get converted down the line to premium paid games. Love the humor in these games.
