Everything sucks on mobile. Mobile UX is the most unimaginative garbage ever.
After a brief period of creativity, every mobile app regressed to 'search bar on top, list in middile, tabs on bottom' UX. Even this best case UX is mediocre at best.
The fundamental flaw is that touch is imprecise and your finger covers the screen, which is unsolvable without buttons.
The lack of buttons killed all creativity and possibility of having a good UX for games on smartphones.
