I’ve played most popular roguelikes like Balatro, Slay the Spire, Dead Cells, etc. So are there any good Android games that aren’t roguelikes?

These days when people say roguelike they just mean a game that divides its gameplay into short, disconnected runs instead of one long, continuous save. It unfortunately has nothing to do with whether a game is anything like Rogue.
Yes, the term is often misapplied, but Balatro has the other key part of actually being a roguelike which is leveling up your build periodically from a randomly selected set of options. The bosses are also randomly selected. It very much is a roguelike
Those are neat and trendy features, but I don’t see how they make it anything like Rogue or its ilk.
