Gaming on Android phones has steadily evolved into its own scene of beautifully designed and immersive games. However, sometimes you may want to relive some of the classics on your PC. Three such classic FPS games for the PC are Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Doom 3, and Quake 3.

If you legally own the games on your Windows PC, then it’s possible to play them on your Android device. All you need to do is install certain applications that act as a front-end which read the PAK files that make up the bulk of the game. These PAK files are taken from the game’s installation directory on your PC.

If you own a fast device such as the HTC 10, Google Pixel, Google Pixel XL, OnePlus 3, OnePlus 3T, or the new Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+, then try running these games on your device.
