Ratings and reviews

This Emulator is great. It's just like playing on a real GameBoy. The controls, settings, and layouts are simple and easy to manage. Layouts are customizable (which is always a plus). You have the option to use save state and other cheats if you chose. And you can speed the game up. I use it to play the OG Pokemon games from gens 1 and 2. Those games are old and finding a legit copy that still works would be hard. If your looking for a great gaming experience, use this app.

My biggest praise is that there are no ads while actually playing the games! Thank goodness! You only ever see little banners while selecting your game, and it isn't obtrusive. Everything runs very smoothly! I haven't encountered an issue really. Only complaint is no save states unless you buy the deluxe version (which are available on PC emulators for free), but this is still probably the best free GBC emulator on Android. At least, that I can find.

Perfect. Where do I start. If you are one to use touch controls this if for you. Because if the simplicity of the gameboys controls the touch controls are not bad. The emulation is perfect with no issues. The only thing I would change is having a way to sharpen the image. It looks blurry, the only "fix" is to get their filter pack and use the lcd filter but it is only a half fix. If you use this emulator I would get my roms from gamulator it's safe. To wrap up I would highly recommend this app.
