Ooh, I just had a thought - you should try CYOA books! "Choose your own adventure" genre. You can probably find them in a library, or on the web, and they provide the experience of making in-character choices without needing to write or interact with other people. You might like them! :D
Already did that with Lone Wolf, but i realize it just "Trial-and-Error" Game which isn't fit for me, no sound, no music, feel empty...

It really sounds like video games would be your thing, but with only an Android phone the choice is certainly limited. Have you tried looking at stuff on itch.io instead of Google Play? Much more variety here, and easier to search for specific themes. (Okay, maybe not that much variety for Android specially, but there are Android games. :V)

Hello, just saw this post and wanted to try giving my advice being a solo ttrpg player for around 4 years, If you like the mechanic aspects of the ttrpg games I think you can try some games like "Four Against Darkness or 2D6 dungeon" There basically dungeon crawling games where you generate your dungeon on the go and fight monsters, they're really fun books and I play a lot when I don't want to roleplay that much. (I'm saying this because on a post above you said you don't like roleplay)

And about having a android, you can play a LOT of games on it, many arpgs are available to play on a phone, like icewind and neverwinter nights that is an amazing game based on D&D 3.5, you will have your character, ttrpg mechanics and roleplay on your phone!

And we also have emulation, you can even emulate a nintendo swich, ps2, gameboys, etc on our phone now days so you can play many rpgs. I can recommend you some if you want. :>
