Skybound Café

Skybound Café puts you in charge of a café that drifts between sky islands, serving odd little customers and expanding your menu. It's a management sim with a light touch; the systems are approachable but there's enough to tinker with that I kept planning my next upgrade.

The interface is clean and tap-friendly, with everything within thumb reach. You can leave and come back, and the game picks up where you left off, which suits short mobile sessions. Decorating the café is a surprising amount of fun.

There are the usual timers nudging you to wait, but they never felt pushy. Performance was smooth on every phone I tried, and heat was never an issue.

What we liked
