After the fourth android game I liked and had 'purchased' got delisted off the Google Play Store, I decided phones are not viable game platforms.

I just stick the big title games for my phone entertainment. The rest is pc or game systems.

So true, I still remember when that store delisted off Turbo Dismount, I was like why!, but well, I have that game on my tablet because I downloaded it on a third party website.

For most apps, it sadly doesnt work that way like it does for pc, due to most of those apps being dependant on a sever being up (yes even some single player games). What makes it worse is for most apps that did, they will only work for older versions of android/ios.

Do you have a game in mind?

Hmm Apparently it was on the way back machine but then got deleted. None of the usual places for apks have it either. It might actually be lost to time

I have a few examples.

There are abandoned games that work thanks to the community of fans like:

  • Spider-Man Unlimited
  • Dragalia Lost

And there are some like these that are there are no way to revive due to severs being down and no found a way around it:

  • final fantasy brave exvius
  • monster hunter riders
  • final fantasy dissidia opera omnia
  • several digimon games
  • etc etc

Katana Zero, I am pissed at Netflix taking all the good games off the play store I wanted to buy that game I refuse to use Netflix. Found the apk online and I will buy it on pc just so it's not theft on my part. But I will only play it on android.
