At my job, we have neither signal nor wifi in certain places (bathroom in the basement). So would appreciate tips on apps to kill five minutes.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon

Warning: HIGHLY addictive.

Just won the game like a minute ago

How?? Pixel dungeon is like 99% RNG

Once you get the hang of it, you can win like 95% of the games.

In the first ten levels, starve yourself and only eat at 30% hp.
Use corners and other obstacles to your advantage to get sneak-attacks. Don't equip any unidentified equipment if possible - especially if it is suspiciously high level for the area. It is probably cursed. Save up your upgrade scrolls until you find some tier 4 or 5 weapons and armor. If you're a mage, just dump them in your wand of fire from lvl 1 with no regrets.
Learn how the bosses attack. The slime hits really hard after charging, so figure out how to dodge or get out of range.

I one trick mage class. I always upgrade my staff as soon as I find a scroll. Once I feel comfortable I'll then imbue my staff and continue to upgrade it.

Is that a bad idea? I've always felt comfortable doing that because I know that my staff will always be my primary weapon.

I've never beaten the game. Only got past the gnome king a handful of times.

Interesting! I'll test out your tips
