Sorry If this is a silly question but where exactly?

Edit: nvm, I was checking the Google Play app.

Is there a chance that an app that is listed as compatible runs like dogshit?

Basically if you check the play store from your device what is shown will be "compatible" with your device, how it will run though is another question.

I've got a Note 4.

Any good recommendedations for a portable controller?

Preferably that isn't limited to certain games, will hold my phone as I play, and it must be easily portable.

Preferably with analogue sticks.

Any suggestions?

Just bought a budget smart phone. How do I know if a game I buy will run on my device or not?

It says in the store if it's compatible with your phone or not.

this doesn't always hold true, sometimes the only reason google play says not compatible is because of regional settings
in that case then just find the apk of said game and try and install it yourself, it's just a matter of file transfer

Those are great deals for Skulls of the Shogun and Castle of Illusion. I'll probably double dip on Shadowrun as well at that price. Add that to what I've already bought (KOTOR, Leo's Fortune, Dragon Quest & GTA Chinatown Wars) and I've had some pretty great value for money on Google Play over the last couple of days.

Also XCom Enemy Within and Civilization Rev 2 are 46% and 47% respectively and Kingdom Rush Origins is down to 64p/99 cents so I may be spending even more google bucks.

Hopefully Amazon makes a landing page for this app giveaway, so it'd be easier to access everything involved. There's some really good stuff in there. Terraria, Five Nights at Freddy's, and Sonic 2 in particular. Plus, there's a Kemco JRPG in the mix (RPG Soul Historica). On the app side, Tunein Radio Pro and Jump Desktop are worth checking out.

EDIT: Found the landing page for this app giveaway:

Picked up Modern Combat 5 for my Shield Tablet. Solid FPS tbh. Played multiplayer for an hour yesterday. It's currently $0.75 I think.


Are there any Resident Evil Mercenaries type games on Google Play?

Which Final Fantasy games DO NOT have cloud saving? I bought FF4 last night and I'm a little bummed it's not there. At least I haven't found the option yet.

Kingdom Rush Origins .99! Best mobile series, especially for tablet.

My only complaint of these games is the lack of cloud save

I've never played all the way through a JRPG but for some reason feel like trying to do so. I noticed that most of the SE stuff is on big sales right now. What is the best game to play on my phone?

Havent played any games on my phone the last two years except for 2048 so I'll probably get a handful of games.

Shadowrun looks cool. And Hitman. Skulls of the Shogun as well.

Worth getting both Kingdom Rush games?
