Let me tell you something, I recently used an emulator on my mobile phone to find a martial arts RPG called "Rumo Jianghu", which immediately took me back to the days when I was huddled in bed and playing GBA. I still remember that at that time, the screen was small, but the world was huge, and every plant and tree was filled with the romance of pixels. Nowadays, mobile phone simulators are becoming more and more convenient, and even this kind of new Chinese martial arts can run smoothly. I have to say that technology really keeps feelings alive. 😭
Talking about the game itself, "Rumo Jianghu" is the sequel to "Jianghu Fengyunlu", and you will know the flavor as soon as you play it. The dialogue in the plot is very funny, and the characters' personalities are like cross talk, but the main plot is confusing and full of twists and turns. I originally thought it was just to kill time, but I couldn't hold it back one night and directly advanced the plot of three chapters. My mind was filled with the thought of "one more round." 🎮
What surprises me most is how different it is from old-school martial arts RPGs. In the past, when we played Chinese martial arts games on the GBA, such as "Sword of Immortality" and "Jin Yong's Legend of Heroes," the biggest headache was choosing the wrong profession or failing to practice the followers. Then there was really no place to cry. However, "Rumo Jianghu" has gone through a whole process of job transfer and rebuilding. After the followers are eliminated, some resources can be recovered to cultivate new players. It is simply a sugar-coat operation for us veteran players with handicapped hands. Moreover, the home system and the servant plot also bring out the "fireworks" of Jianghu. You are no longer alone in the world, but you actually have a nest where you can rest and chat, and your sense of belonging is directly filled. 🏡
Playing this game on an emulator, I have to say that it feels surprisingly smooth. The virtual buttons adapt to the screen-to-body ratio, and there is no lag when making moves. The key point is - you can save anytime and anywhere! This is heartbreaking. When I was playing RPG on the PSP, my biggest fear was that the teacher would suddenly confiscate the machine, and I would not be able to save the save file, so I would go back to before liberation overnight. Now you can save and read on the mobile phone simulator at any time. Even if you have passed the subway station, your progress is stable and you feel very safe. 📱
There is also the endless tower climbing gameplay of the Tower of Babel. I originally thought it was a casual little game, but it turned out to be overwhelming as soon as I climbed it. There are new lineup challenges on each floor, forcing you to study character combinations and martial arts routines. The pleasure of pondering over the combination of moves on a handheld device can actually be found again on your mobile phone. Youth is really back, and it's back in a way that understands us better.
Oh, by the way, this game is free, and the developers rely on ads and voluntary sponsorships to make a living. I took the initiative to pay the "favor tax" in the third hour of playing. After all, I really don't want such a dedicated stand-alone martial arts game to starve to death on the roadside. If you are also an old handheld player and now only have a mobile phone in your hand, then you must try to pocket this world in the simulator. It's not bad, but it smells right! 👍
One last thing to say: I still remember the days when I forgot about food and sleep to play "The Legend of Jianghu". Now I can continue to enjoy this relationship on my mobile phone. It's worth it. Old friends, if you also miss the feeling of "one machine, one world", you might as well search for this game in the Qitan Dimension section. See you in the world! ⛩️
