Are there any mobile games with subscriptions or are all P2W?

    Not that I'm aware of.  It's also near impossible to find complete games with a purchase price.
    If I come across any I'll list them here - shouldn't be a long list.  Mobile used to get money from me, but now that we have all the micro transactions, they don't get any.

    Edit:  I do believe we are about to see some though.  Albion Online and such..

    In June is when Apple and the Playstore gave the okay for "sub based games"

    Yes.

    Vendetta Online. 

    Minecraft. 

    Both include subscription options (Minecraft if you count "Realms").

    To paraphrase sir Arthur Conan Doyle, it only takes one exception to disprove the rule.

    There are a lot of buy to play games on mobile without cash shop.
    Subscription based games are p2w. If you don't keep on paying you cant win.

    The game I'm playing -- Marvel Puzzle Quest has both subscription options and cash shop items.   I guess you could consider it strategy -- its primarily a match 3 type of game with superhero strategy elements.  I did a short review on it a while back.  Decent game.

    I'm not sure why you are asking about subscriptions unless you are interested in online games, but I covered that in my first post.

    Just wanted to add that Banner Saga has been a great mobile RPG experience so far.  It actually got me to care about the characters in a way few games manage to do, and its world-building is vaguely reminiscent of Terry Brooks' Shannara series for me although I can't quite put my finger on it now.  It is masterfully done. 

    This War of Mine is moody, atmospheric, and depressing.  I'm almost loathe to play because I feel like my poor choices will eventually lead to the untimely deaths of these three tenacious individuals that are barely clinging to existence. It's everything great about a zombie-survival film, but in a totally believable setting.

    Tengami is a beautiful, relaxing, meditative experience.  It's like reading a pop-up book done in Japanese artwork, with the physical liberties of a video game.
