So basically it’s a mix of translation layers (such as wine) to run windows app on Android. I saw an article on it and I thought I’d share. It looks pretty cool, although I’m not exactly sure what the use case for this would be. It does looks like their are some touch controls so that’s pretty cool. All things considered do you thing you’d be willing to install and download full PC games to play on your phone?

    From from what I heard, apparently it’s a lot slower than Box4Droid, although it’s easier to use.

    There’s also the upcoming Cassia emulator, which looks promising and should be better than either of them.

    As for the use case, there are plenty of good PC games without a decent Android port/equivalent. A lot of us spend more time on Android than on PC, so it makes sense that we’re starting to see more and more projects like these (besides, most native Android games suck).

      Really? I’ve never dove too much into the android emulator space. What makes Cassia so different from the others? Also I’m definitely gonna have to check out Box4Droid.

        Cassia is a Wine fork + FEXCore + easy to use GUI with the ability to create Wine prefixes. It’s made by the same guys who made the Skyline Emulator, which was prolly the best Nintendo Switch emulator on Android, so the expectations are pretty high.
