This guide will show you how to download, install, and run Katawa Shoujo on your phone
Update 08/21/2017 - Updated Download Links. both APK and OBB in a single rar file in Google Drive. The old download links have been removed/moved to a phishing site.
Also yes. I am still alive.
EDIT/UPDATE: Reddit User OrionRBR has posted on his newly released experimental build, which allows for more phones to have access to the menu by binding the back key to the menu key, allowing phones without a menu button quick access to saves, loads, options, etc. Please read about it here. https://www.reddit.com/r/katawashouj...working_on_70/
EDIT/UPDATE: go to Settings → Accessibility → Dexterity and Interaction → turn on the Assistant Menu. This will add a floating button to the screen that you can press to reveal a menu containing the old Menu button. This allows for the in-game menu without the android menu key!
EDIT/UPDATE: IF RUNNING ANDROID 7.0 + GO READ HERE!
Requirements:
while there are NO minimum requirements listed, this is the recommended gathered from testing.
- 500MB of space on your phone's memory
- 500MB ram
- 480 x 800 resolution or higher
- The game has high battery consumption, recommended to play long sessions only when high battery or charging.
- Some phones cant access the options menu due to button setup, though this seems to only occur on really old smart phones. I haven't run into this problem with a Galaxy S2X or an S3.
Instructions:
- Download the Android package (apk + obb) - 418MB
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5J...ew?usp=sharing
- Copy both files to your phone using a usb cable, bluetooth, etc. Downloading straight to your phone can cause difficulty with the files on a good chunk of devices.
- Install the apk using any Android file manager.
(If the installation fails, make sure "Unknown sources" is checked in your device's security settings)
- Copy the obb file to /Android/obb/vn.katawashoujo/ on your external storage device,
usually an SD Card. Create the folders if they don't exists.
- When done, your file-tree should look like this on your computer
- That's it, launch KS on your phone
- Save Files are located at /Android/data/vn.katawashoujo/files/saves on your external storage
ALL CREDIT to the port and downloads belong to M2e of pastebin, who put the game on android, I basically just tl;dr'd his guide, which you can find here; http://pastebin.com/ZyRkVY5W
