Game installation:
1. What smartphone or PDA do I have?
The easiest way to find out if our games will run on your
phone or PDA is to look at the compatibility list and see
if your mobile device is listed there. If you are not sure
what operating system runs your device, simply look at the
front side and the back side or your PDA or phone. PDAs usually
have OS displayed on the front side. “Pocket PC” means that
your device is based on Windows Mobile OS. “Palm” means that
your PDA is run by Palm OS. Phones, on the other hand, usually
have brand names on the front side and operating system on
the back. Windows Mobile based smartphones usually come with
the "Designed for Windows Mobile TM" label on the
back. Symbian based smartphones can be identified as such
through the Tools menu “Tools->About ->“This product
includes software licensed from Symbian Ltd. © Symbian Ltd
1998-2002. All rights reserved.” If you are unable to find
out what type of mobile device you have, look in the instruction
manual that came with it. Find Specifications, then System
Information and then the operating system for you device.
2. Download installation package for your smartphone or PDA.
Move the cursor to the download link and click it with either
right or left mouse button. Save the file (Save Target As)
onto your PC desktop first, prior to installing in onto your
mobile device.
3. Installing game onto your smartphone or PDA.
After you downloaded installation package:
Windows Mobile OS. Window Mobile users must have Microsoft
ActiveSync installed on their PC desktops, before the game
can be installed onto a mobile device. You need to copy the
game .CAB file to your device via ActiveSync. Then use File
Explorer to click on the .CAB file to complete the installation.
Palm OS. Palm OS users must have HotSync installed on their
PC desktops before the game can be installed onto a mobile
device. To install the game, simply double click on game .PRC
file and you will then see a box named "Install Tool"
appear. All you need to do now is click on the "Ok"
and after on the "Done" button and then synchronize
your Palm. HotSync will now copy the game across and installation
is complete!
Symbian OS. Symbian OS users must have Mobile DeskTop Suite
installed on their PC desktops before the game can be installed
onto a mobile device. If you don’t have it installed, check
the CD that came with the phone. Launch Mobile DeskTop Suite
to install the game onto your mobile device. When installation
is started, simply follow the installation wizard.
In addition to that, you have an option to load the installation
packages directly onto your mobile device via Bluetooth or
Mobile Internet and do final installation directly at you
mobile device. Windows Mobile installation packages have “*.CAB”
file extension, Palm OS packages – “*.PRC” and “*.PDB”, Symbian
– “*.SIS”. The symbol “*” means any file name, for instance
“MyGame.CAB” can be directly loaded and installed onto any
Windows Mobile OS device.
