This post will cover information about how you can play java games on android.
Time they say flies. I can vividly remember how I use to play java games on my Nokia 2700 classic, Nokia XpressMusic, Nokia C100 classic.
Due to the love I had for Java games, I once traded my dinner just to be allowed to play the Assassin’s Creed III game.
At that time, there was no trending Java game I wouldn’t want to download. I could remember playing Real football 2010 on multiplayer mode with my cousin and friends.
The likes of Bourne Conspiracy, all Assassin’s Creed series, Prince of Persia, all Gangster series, Splinter cell, Contra 4, Mission Impossible, Mortal Kombat, Ghost Recon, A Good Day to Die Hard, Spider-Man, All Asphalt series, Modern Combat 2 Black Pegasus, Medal of Honour, Clash of Titans, The Mummy, Pirate of the Caribbean, Hero of Sparta were among a host of Java games I did play.
The era of Java games may be far gone but it has left a huge mark on the hearts of those who loved playing Java games back then.
Some of us may have missed playing these Java games and would want an avenue where such games could be played again with a more advanced system probably on your android device since you might not want to get these old Java phones.

J2ME Loader app
J2ME Loader is a J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition) emulator for Android. It supports most 2D games and also 3D with some limitations (Mascot Capsule 3D games don’t work).
The Java emulator comes with a virtual keyboard, with each application coming with its own settings and scaling support.
With the J2ME app, you can play or run virtually most Java games with your Android device.
The app comes with a very simple UI and easy features that will assist you in running any java game. The J2ME Emulator works without rooting your device.
So with the app installed, you won’t need to root your Android device to run or play Java games.
Let’s now see how we can use the J2ME Loader application to play java games on the android system.
How To Play Java Games On Android Using J2ME Loader App
To play Java games on android device, simply download or install the J2ME Loader app from Google Play Store.
After installing the app, open it. Now download any Java game of your choice over the internet. Although most of the sites I used then to download java games like waptrick, Sefan.ru, Wapdam, etc may give you slight difficulties to download Java games now.
You can use any browser to download the Java games, but I recommend using The Chrome browser to download java games from any site.
