I always really liked Dr Mario for the combos. It was satisfying to have so much potential building up on the board until I got that red-blue pill I needed, and watching the whole thing cascade. Two player is even more fun.

This is maybe different from what you’re seeking, but SPL-T is a very engaging puzzler that can lead to flow states where you’re slicing your way through perfectly balanced stacks of blocks, watching their countdowns halve each time. It’s turn-based and iOS only. Fully deterministic, very simple, but my preferred strategy is still evolving every time I play.
