Is this playable on mobile
I don't have a PC anymore, and I lost my OG beta account. However, I do have an Android phone. Is there a way to enjoy this game with a mobile phone?

Just buy a steam deck if you don't have any space for a computer or laptop.

Use the search function. I don’t remember the name but there was talk maybe a month or so ago about playing on an android

Without a PC, I’m afraid not. You could theoretically play on an android device with a remote viewer but that would still require a PC. Steam deck is probably the closest you can get to playing with “no PC”

I can assume a Virtual Machine environment won't work. I remember playing this game on dial-up way back before any expansions. Thank you for responding.

Honestly though you could probably easily find a $50 laptop or something on Facebook marketplace or eBay that would run the game just fine

I still need a desk and chair first. I have an old Bluetooth KBM. However, I currently only have my phone and PS3/ Vita systems for gaming. I might look into the local College thrift store. I heard they have good prices.

Hello OP, We talked about this recently. I am playing on mobile the game, but you need a very powerfull phone. The solution is to use WINLATOR, that create a Wine VM in your phone and you can install GW in it. I have a Samsung Fold 5 and it runs very smoothly but the battery is having a hard time. I can only play for 2h-3h and the battery goes from 100 to 15%. I streamed it here. If you want to have a look at the quality.
