The 10 highest rated Steam Transplant mobile games

Recently isolated at home, I was caught up in a game drought, and I began to try to find some games with high Steam ratings, but I had not yet played, so I thought of the website I used when I wrote the manuscript of Steam's best game of the year, SteamDB.

In addition to querying information such as the historical price of games on Steam, this website also has a very useful feature, that is, you can see the rating leaderboard of all Steam games. This leaderboard uses a set of different scoring algorithms from Steam's official, synthesizing the praise rate and the number of ratings, the rating is more accurate, and it is very convenient to see which steam games have the highest ratings now.

In the process of watching this leaderboard, in addition to spending a lot of Argentine pesos on impulse, there is also an unexpected gain, I found that in fact, many of the top 100 games with Steam ratings are actually out of mobile versions, but some of them are not online in China. So I compiled a top 10 steam port mobile game based on SteamDB's ratings to see if there are any treasure games you missed.

Note: The following list only contains the official mobile game port version of Steam games that have been officially launched on Android/iOS, and does not include unofficial native versions such as cloud games and emulators.

TOP 10

No Game Here: The Wrong Dimension

Another of our editors, Maruko, recommended a game that has previously written a separate Amway article, and here is a lazy quote from her:

No Games Here: The Wrong Dimension is a standard Meta Game, and you can say you're playing a game or wrestling with an invisible producer.

All elements are part of the game, not only the fourth wall, but also the game in the game and the fifth and sixth wall of the game maker; the design of the puzzle is fun and difficult, there is no repetitive idea, everything in front of you is part of the game and the part that can be destroyed: the volume speaker, the mouse cursor, the UI...

You never know which props will break through the dimension and play a wonderful role, making you scream "What is this neurotic play" while playing well.

"No Games Here: The Wrong Dimension" is "only" in the top 10 list, but it is the best Meta game in the top ten, if you are interested in Meta games, it is very recommended that you try it.

TOP 9

《Baba is you》

"Baba is you" won two awards at the 2021 TapTap Game of the Year Awards for "Best Gameplay" and "Best Indie Game", and its biggest highlight is the brain-opening gameplay - playing the "rules" itself.

In Maruko's enthusiastic Amway article, you can see a detailed description of how it is played, which is not expanded here, but only two comments on Steam:

In a nutshell, Baba is you is the most amazing puzzle game I've ever played. If you like puzzle games, it's definitely a shame you haven't played Baba is you.

Labyrinth: Gone with the Wind

There is finally a mobile game on this list that is launched in China! And "Labyrinth: Past" only the mobile game version has an official Chinese, the Steam version does not have it, and this series is also very friendly for mobile phone touch screen operation, this wave is a victory for mobile gamers.

Also a puzzle game, Baba is you, which uses imagination to win, while the Labyrinth (Unlocked Room) series takes the exquisite mechanism design to the extreme, and the latest work in the series, "Labyrinth: Past and Gone", is the mastermind of the puzzle solving.

"Labyrinth: Past and Gone" is not only quite exquisite in puzzle design, the design of various mechanical mechanisms in the game is also impossible for mechanical enthusiasts to hold, and the exquisite 3D screen can be regarded as a unique existence in the puzzle game on the mobile phone side.

"Reborn Cells"

Another game that won two awards at the 2021 TapTap Game of the Year Awards, Cell Reborn not only won the "Best Action" award from the professional judges, but also the "Most Loved by Players" game voted by players.

The 10 highest rated Steam Transplant mobile games

Roguelite + Metroidvania is one of the best games in the genre, and if you add this condition that can be played on the domestic mobile phone, you don't even need to add "one". If you really want to pick a bone in the egg and say the shortcomings, there should be only the following one:

(This is your flaw, not the game's flaw)

TOP 6

Miami Hotline

Miami Hotline may be a relatively low-profile game in the top ten, but its publisher, Devolver, is now definitely one of the most successful independent game publishers, and Miami Hotline is also one of Devolver's early release masterpieces, with a strong "Devolver flavor" from the style to the gameplay.

Although the 8-bit style graphics and 2D top-down shooting gameplay may seem a bit "too retro", you may feel that the game is difficult when you first get started, but when you are familiar with the gameplay, the exciting music, refreshing sense of blows, fast-paced combat and even let you find a feeling of playing DOOM.

And under the appearance of the game's violent aesthetics, there is a deep connotation hidden, which is definitely a game that can surprise you.

TOP 5

Balloon Tower Defense 6

Balloon Tower Defense 6 is one of the most "unpopular" games in the top ten, and I only saw it for the first time when I was writing this article.

If you only look at the game, which is slightly "child-oriented", you may have a hard time imagining that it is the highest-rated tower defense game on Steam! And in the mouth of the player, it is called the "Tower Defense Big Three" together with "Plants vs. Zombies" and "Kingdom Defense War".

The reason why "Balloon Tower Defense 6" is so highly evaluated is that behind the seemingly childish cartoon style, there is an extremely rich and hardcore tower defense gameplay. There are dozens of different maps in the game, more than twenty different monkey towers, and each monkey tower has three different upgrade branches, which is not to mention the game's rather complex knowledge system.

You can choose either the simplest difficulty to easily beat the level, or the highest difficulty to challenge the most challenging experience in the tower defense game category.

What's even more rare is that Balloon Tower Defense 6 is a rare multiplayer tower defense game, in which you can find a feeling of playing warcraft RPG maps with your friends.

TOP 4

The Killing Spire

"Killing Spire" should not need much introduction, whether it is a meat pigeon lover or a card playing enthusiast, it is not to be missed.

Let's just put a hot comment on Steam:

If you really want to say the disadvantage, it is currently only available overseas on the mobile phone, and the national service version of "Spire Raiders" is still in the reservation, and there is no news of the online time.

TOP 3

The Union of Isaac: The Rebirth

Ten years later, after countless Roguelite masterpieces, Isaac's Combination: Rebirth is still one of the highest-rated Roguelite games on Steam, why?

There's a succinct summary of our previous Amway essay: "Isaac is a game that takes hundreds, thousands of hours to play without getting tired." With over 600 achievements on Steam, characters and paths have a variety of unlocking conditions, plus countless mods to keep it alive. That's the charm of Isaac.

What's even more rare is that Isaac's Union is the first Rougelite indie game that relies entirely on the game's own excellent qualities and the player's word of mouth to achieve success, without relying on console manufacturers or publishers, which has greatly inspired independent game developers. In the field of indie games, The Combination of Isaac is a landmark.
