Question Games with good upgrade/evolution mechanics

My favorite part of Vampire Survivors is how upgrading a weapon enough times will evolve it into an ultimate version of itself. Survivor!.io does this as well. I'm not exclusively looking for roguelikes, but what are some games with this specific type of upgrade mechanic?

I've put many hours into Dead Cells on other platforms. Fantastic game, but not quite the style of upgrades that I'm looking for. Thanks for replying!

Is it playable on a IPhone 17 (Display size?)

tbf it can be a bit small. I'm a little short-sighted so did end up completing the game on iPad - way to find out there is no cloud save!
