Arvale, Combat is different but about the closet I have tried. There are a few RPGs for the PDA, do a search of the games forum.
Freedom means learning to deal with being offended!

Check out my Belkin keyboard Review.

Love Sudoku? Try Zen of Sudoku.

I am studying MS VB05 right now, so if you can give me any tips or need some help on something I would be glad to help(or try).

Have you ever made a decision?

(Emulating Diablo I & C&C via FPSEce PSX Emulator)

If you look for a good "Elder Scrolls"- like first Person RPG (simultaneuosly not-round based) then you should wait a few more days till "The Quest" will be released, it's really great!

I agree on Ancient Evil (not-round based) and on Arvale (round based), if not

Diablo was based on Angband and other such games but with better graphics instead of 2D tiles (or ASCII chars) and realtime instead of being 100% turn-based.

AngbandCE is an old port of this and is available here. However it doesn't have the best interface and the cab file you need to install is actually inside the cab file you download!

I have been debugging the source code, finishing a couple of the features that weren't ported and have also enhanced it to run in VGA on compatible devices with an improved interface. It will take me a while longer to completely finish, but here is a current screenshot:

You could look at Dungeon Master. It's FREE.

also the sequel, Chaos Strikes Back. FREE TOO.
There is a certain time and place for spontaneity.

G'day,
If you go for Dungeon Master I'd suggest you pick up a walkthru. Sometimes keys are just on the passage floor. Visible on the PC but invisible to me on the PDA.
Dungeon Master is good fun. Really ground-breaking stuff when it came out.
Cheers

If I remember correctly, some guy on the forum was able to run Diablo on his PPC by using FpseCE.

I haven't used it on an Axim, but I tried it on my HTC Wizard and it crashed my device on exiting the game and had to soft reset.

Wicked! Being an old schooler (who had the original when it was new!) I appreciate the link -- now I don't have to run it on an emulator. Thanks for the link.

If you like that,then check this out;

That's for the desktop, but it's got some different stuff than the original.



Also, for the original, if you want some help like maps and stuff;
