Monkey Island on a mobile phone


April 30th, 2007 - 23:17 | 1 comment

I was browsing Lifehacker’s user-recommended list of useful Nokia OS applications when something caught my eye. I didn’t want to get my hopes up, but one trip to the ScummVM website and a little digging around my hard drive later:

Monkey Island on my phone - 1

Monkey Island on my phone! Train journeys need never be dull again.

Monkey Island on my phone - 2

The whole game is 4mb and fully playable, including saves and audio (not very high quality audio, admittedly, but the tune’s there). It’s the usual interface: a cursor is moved with the arrow keys, and the text is just about readable. Great stuff. I’ll have to try Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis next.

    Filed this page away in the ‘duly noted’ files back in April - I’ve just got myself a Nokia, and Monkey Island 1 and 2 are now proudly stored on there. Cheers!
