My phone heats?

My iPhone 12 mini often temporarily disabled the flashlight because of high temperature, but my phone gets hot when playing simple games like 3D Games like Roblox, Car simulator2 etc. those games have a lot of detail but the fact that by DEFAULT my iPhone plays the games on the HIGHEST Settings should mean that it can handle it well, but getting hot after 10 minutes of playing those games and letting the battery go down fast is a red flag 🚩. The heat management is not as good as Apple should be a company of this quality should be the best, not the worst.

the issue is not overheating but it’s that the phone pushes too it’s maximum but that starts becoming a battery drainer very quickly like 10-15 minutes of playing, the problem is that the battery drain is low in the beginning but gets worse after a long time even if it’s a simple 3D simulation game but for me it’s just weird that a phone with this 2year old yet still one of powerful chips is getting hot when gaming, maybe the battery is too small I don’t know
