AnotherGuest is famous for his various ports to the Symbian platform of classic games from older computer platforms and open source projects, and his latest release continues that trend.

Keys are always hard to fix. But for Crimson Fields, you have a language called mobile, which maps most of the used features to mobile shortcuts, i.e 0-9 and '*', '#', might be worth a try. Also try playing it with a BT mouse. 😊

GREAT GAME.

For anyone using a NOKIA 5800, the V.5 game will NOT work.
It crashes on start up.

You must use the V.3 and then turn off your �screen rotate� setting.

Then it should work perfectly.

Remember, V.3 for 5800, not V.5. don�t know why but V.3 does work.
Maybe they mixed up the files.

Have fun.
