DRM Free Android games

Andrew_Przelucki PC ports are very welcome for Android!
There are some games that already were ported successfully and had commercial success, but got pulled for unknown reasons.
WeGo made a good port of Re-Volt by Acclaim, the only things missing were gamepad/keyboard support and cloud saves. I think WeGo went bankrupt and luckily I made a local backup of the apk+obb files (always make local backups of games you value; extract the apk AND also archive the obb files!), because the game was removed from the Play Store without any warning - like many other games, yet we paid for it and it's not available to us customers anymore.. Anyways, the game runs still well on never Android versions and is a blast to play.
Square Enix ported Tomb Raider 1 and 2 very, very well. Full blown gamepad support like on PC - the only other game that handles all gamepad axes, buttons and triggers, was Riptide GP 2 by Vector Unit (the sequel supposedly also supports the keyboard). TR 1 and create local save files, like on PC, in Android/data/gamefolder, on the internal memory, which work great on other devices to resume game progress. The games got polled as well for unknown reasons, despite running well on low spec devices too.
A very important feature that would enhance these games, would be if they allowed storing the obb data files on the EXTERNAL SD card.
Also, there was a really great game (port?) on Android by InXile Entertainment - The Bard's Tale. Full and excellent gamepad support (and even touch controls vere great), good cloud saves and just excellent performance even on low spec devices. The game apk is only ~30MB, but the game then allows to download and store data files to external or internal storage,1.5 or 3.5 GB, depending on selected detail level. This is (was, sadly) probably the only game with such fine data allocation system, and the data files were not obb files, but PC style media files, downloaded directly to Android/data/gamefolder, and used as such! A really good quality PC/console style game, and it also got pulled from the Play Store. InXile got purchased by Microsoft recently: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/InXile_Entertainment The game had a good rating and many positive reviews.
