    Old mobile java games still worth your time

    Since my last post about "Rally Master Pro" was well received, I wanted to write about some old, java games which I believe are still relevant and highly worth your time in (soon to be) 2021. I tried my best not to be driven by nostalgia, so, obviously, as much as I loved games like Real Football 2006 or Gangstar 2, they didn't make the list (there's no reason to play Gangstar 2 when you've got a full-blooded GTA San Andreas on Android).

    How do I play those?

    There are quite a few apps available at Google Store, but, luckily, the best one is both money and advert-free, J2ME Loader. You don't really need anything more.

    Where do I find them?

    Those games can't be bought legally today (they are simply long-gone from the market), the platform which they run is obsolete, yet, if you ask the developers, I'm sure they would tell you it's against the law to use their intellectual property for free. So I won't give you any links, but I'll tell you there's this guy, last name Mil, first name Dedo, of house Dotnet.

    As the years passed and phones developed, so did the screen sizes. While searching for the games, you'll realize they always come branded with 128x128, 128x160, 176x220, 240x320 or some other numbers. Those are screen resolutions and you want the best one, 240x320, preferably of Sony Ericsson, since SE K810i was the ultimate gaming phone back in the day. Some of the older games, which were released before 240x320 resolution came to pass, are obviously available only in 176x220 or 128x160. Also, you want the JAR file, not JAD.

    How do I set them up?

    Follow the steps:

    1. Fire up the J2ME Loader. Press the three white dots in the upper-right corner, then "Settings", then uncheck "Enable ActionBar" and "Enable statusbar". Get back. Notice the red circle with a plus on it in the bottom-right corner. Press and locate your JAR file. After the installation is complete, press "Start". You'll see the settings menu.
    2. Adjust your settings to match the following:
      Screen options: 240x320
      Scale: 100
      Scale to fit: Check
      Keep aspect ratio: Check
      Immediate processing mode: Check (it's needed for some games to work properly at full speed, turn off if your game crashes or behaves weird)
      Graphics mode: HW acceleration (OpenGL ES) (again, if the game crashes or stutters, return back to "Software")
      Force fullscreen: Check
      Keyboard type: Phone
      Button shape: Rectangle
      Haptic feedback: Check (this is optional, but is suggested as it gives you a nice feedback)
    3. Start.

    This is what you should be seeing if you did everything accordingly.

    Games

    Stranded (Glu Mobile)

    Stranded

    Group of people shipwrecked on a mysterious, deserted island. Apart from the main plot, where you uncover the secrets of the island (you are not alone), you are free to explore the island on your own, fish, hunt, grow fruits and vegetables, cook meals, trade, collect shells and a number of other things.

    Wolf Moon (Rovio)

    Wolf Moon

    You play as a female police officer who got bitten by a werewolf and got wrongly accused for murder by her partner, so you run away into the wild. The hunters and their dogs are out to get you during the day, the wolves and werewolves during the night, as you try to lift the curse and clear your name before you turn into werewolf. Hunt for food, hide inside abandoned cabins and caves, collect wood for fire, upgrade your weapons, you can even drive a truck (and sleep in it).

    CSI Miami, New York, Mobile Game, Blood on Campus (Gameloft)

    CSI: Miami

    This is where Gameloft truly shone. Every CSI game is a gem on it's own, staying true to the TV series. Collect evidence, work in the lab, question suspects and enjoy all the unexpectable twists and turns while you are solving the case.

    Sola Rola (Eidos)

    Sola Rola

    The best platformer out there. Nothing else to be said.

    Silent Hill (Konami)

    Silent Hill

    Years ago, one night, every single child from now-abandoned orphanage died, apart from you. You return to the place to solve the mystery and the game is as unsettling as it sounds. There are two sequels, but they didn't manage to capture the atmosphere of the original.

    Wolfenstein RPG (EA Games)

    Wolfenstein RPG

    Using the same engine which propelled Doom RPG and Orcs & Elves, Wolfenstein happens to be the best of them. The story, the humor, combat, levels, enemies, everything is a love letter to classic Wolfenstein games.

    Honorable mentions

    • Splinter Cell - Pandora Tomorrow, Chaos Theory (Gameloft)
    • California Gold Rush (Digital Chocolate)
    • Playman Summer Games 3 (Mr. Goodliving)
    • Gravity Defied (Codebrew Software)

    Eternal New Release - JP MMORPG Gameplay - Same team that brought us Toram Online

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 07:32 PM PST

    ETERNAL by the popular Japanese publisher Asobimo Inc. who brought you hit games like Iruna Online and Toram Online was released in Japan this December 16, 2020. This MMORPG comes with incredible graphics, challenging gameplay and loads of customisation. Continue to see more about ETERNAL's combat system, multiplayer modes, game features and more.

    The first thing you will notice about ETERNAL is some of the character design looks very similar to character you will find in Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy XV - that is because the renowned illustrator Yoshitaka Amano is in charge of character designs for ETERNAL. The story takes in the middle of a war between Nordania and Ordo then suddenly struck by the dark creatures of the Nefarious forces. You as the protagonist must join forces with other players to protect your country.

    [REQUEST] I've got a game in my head, but can't remember what it's called

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 02:50 PM PST

    There's this great game I played about 3.5 years ago, which I've sporadically remembered a few days back, but I can't remember the name of it for the life of me. Please, if you know what game I'm describing, either link it or send me the name. Thank you very much in advance!

    The game consisted of a geometric style drawing game set in "cyberspace" where you're trying to fix corrupted sectors. It had graphics similar to Smash Hit by Mediocre, where you were travelling through "tunnels". There were different obstacles thrown towards you, with different lines/patterns/runes drawn on them. You had to accurately sketch that rune on the screen with your finger to destroy the obstacle.

    That's about as much as I remember, and I may have gotten some details wrong, so I'd be extremely impressed if anyone finds anything, but it's worth a shot! Thank you all very much.

    Looking for MMORTS with safe base

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 05:23 AM PST

    So I'm looking for an MMORTS like Clash of clans and others, but with a twist, I don't want anybody to attack my base and get constantly crushed by veterans or big spenders, I still want pvp/pve content but outside my base, maybe on a contested territory where I can send units and join my alliance.

    I've recently played this game called Hades star where your base is never attacked, and instead you join instanced pve/pvp content, would love something similar, is there a game similar to clash of clans like that?

    Has anyone tried the Gamevice controllers for Android?

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 06:55 PM PST

    I'm considering getting this controller for portability purposes but some details are being glossed over on the website and reviews.

    The website has 3 different models for Android with no explanation as to what the differences are (Pixels, Galaxys, and a 3rd one that only covers the S8/Note8). The 2nd one says "not compatible with S10e". I have a Nokia 7 and I'm wondering what will happen if I plug this controller into my phone when it isn't listed? Isn't it using type c? What's keeping from just working with every type c phone?

    Also, does this controller work with all the games/apps that also support Bluetooth? Or does GV have their own ecosystem of support? What about emulators?

    City building games

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 03:18 PM PST

    What's your favourite city building game? I've put in over a 1000 hours into Cities Skylines. It is far more accessible than Sim City series. Do you have a favourite? If so what and why?
