I stumbled across Baldur's Gate I & II on the app store today and was strongly considering picking them up as something to do on my tablet. I'm interested in people's opinions on those two, as well as other retro game ports available.

I never actually bothered to consider Android as a platform for retro gaming before, and I currently don't own a handheld console, so I'd love any suggestions people have.

Several Dragon Quest titles are available on Android. I believe DQ 1-3 are unique versions made for mobile. They are also available on Switch. DQ 4-6 were only ever released in NA on the DS and are damn near impossible to find now for a good price. But the mobile ports are based on this version and it's probably the most accessible way to play those games. At least if you don't speak Japanese.
