I paid for Puzzle Quest 2 on android like a decade+ ago. It is a local single-player game. It has a validation check when you open the app. That check fails because this game is ancient and the servers are offline.

I want to replay the game I paid for. I have the APK from an APK site. It’s even been pulled from steam to push their crappy p2w pq3. Anyone have tricks to crank an APK and bypass a server check? I’ve decompiled the APK but am in a bit over my head.

    I bought roller coaster tycoon classic for mobile a few years back. When I upgraded my phone, it suddenly vanished because apparently Pixel 7’s and later are 64-bit only. I’ve heard I could root my phone and somehow restore access, but that seems like a pain and I’ve become pretty reliant on Google’s call screening service to block spam calls.

    Just ridiculous that I can no longer play a game a purchased for arbitrary reasons.
