Could you install DOSBox on there and run the original game?
I kept him a few days in the pot with rice and it had a white screen.
So I gave up and put it away in a box with a broken electronics.
and now I remembered him and that he has a convenient carrying case to attach anywhere.
So I decided to take him out. And turn ona gain...
Haha it was a story of one phone :D

And about DosBox.
I installed it, and almost launched keen4, but it shows that screen and nothing happens.

Gee that looks cool. Do you know if it's the buttons that are unresponsive or the game itself?

Game itself.
I think it can't find or read some file. :confused
The words at the bottom:"loading - please wait" are blinking. Buttons seem to be working.

Usually when that happens it cannot load a file. Do you have all the relevant files, EGAGRAPH, AUDIO and GAMEMAPS? Are none of them set to 'read only'?

They're all here, but I don't know how to find out did they set to 'read only' or not.
I copied them from computer and on it, they worked fine.
Well, I think I can't run it without Commander Genius. :|

Was it Dosbox Turbo you downloaded?
Dosbox Turbo is the best one in my experience. It's run most dos games on my android systems without problems (even Keen.)

Not a stupid reference, more a direct reference from Tom Hall.

Cool, Link with the Master Sword, against Keen with a chainsaw. Who'll win?

This is why Keen needs to be in Smash!!!

Without any context, the photo is Tom about to slaughter.

IIRC, the chainsaw knighthoods have been a part of ID's history since the early 1990s.

I'm not afraid to admit I voted for Keen in the Smash Fan Ballot, I must be the only one I think. I've made a Keen Mii Fighter, a couple of Keen stages, in my spare time I even try to build a workable set of moves for a genuine Keen fighter for Smash.
