Mobile Suit Gundam U.C. Engage is a phone game for fans of the original Universal Century timeline. Bandai Namco's App Store listing describes animated scenes from the U.C. world alongside a new storyline, with 6 vs. 6 battles between realistic 3D mobile suits that can run on auto-play. You build your own Mobile Suit team and take it into Arena battles. It holds a 4.8 rating from about 7,500 US App Store ratings and the download is 450.4 MB. Optional purchases start with Diamond A at $0.99 and run to $64.99, and the Haro Pass subscriptions add diamonds plus a 3x speed mode, with the first month offered as a free trial. The App Store flags random-item purchases. It ranks below G Generation Eternal because the auto-play design gives you less control in battle and the roster focuses on one timeline, but it is a good fit for short sessions.
