Tales of Dragon presents itself as a mobile MMORPG. The story takes place in a medieval setting. It plays like most modern mobile MMORPGs.

Threads is one of the biggest Android app releases of 2023 so far. As you probably already know, it's Instagram's attempt to clone Twitter.

Orientation in portrait mode is a little annoying at first, but you get used to it quickly. There is much more emphasis on shorter playing times than full games.
