If you have a JAR file of an old game then you can play that easily in your Android phone. There are some Java games emulators for PC as well but they don’t work as efficiently as this app does. You just import a JAR file, it will read that and then you can launch it. Simple as that.

This is an open source app and you can install it either from F-Droid or Google Play store. Next, make sure that you have JAR files of the games that you want to play. Just put the JAR files anywhere in your SD card or phone storage. After that, tap on the “+” icon from the app to import the JAR file.

Wrapping things up…

There used to be one of my favorite games, Treasure of Egypt that I used to play on my father’s phone but sadly it disappeared due to advancement in the mobile technology. So, I found its JAR file on the web and I was using an emulator on my PC to play that. But that wasn’t good as the speed of the game was slow. But recently I came to know about this J2ME Loader app and it worked like a charm. If you are one of those who missed those old games a lot then you can bring them back to life with this simple and powerful J2ME emulator app for Android.
