I would like to know if there is a good open source project that let’s me run a copy of a game on my phone without crashing or bugging out after a day or two, nothing on the app store works well enough. I just want to enjoy multiple accounts on an old 32bit mmorpg from 2013-2014.

      The games called Iruna Online, account is tied to your gmail. The way to switch between accounts is the clear data on the app, select a different gmail, and redownload game data every time.

          Yeah I thought of using a separate user but I seems calls and texts don’t get through to the second user on my phone (or at least they get delayed), plus setting up things like music and other apps like discord for notification is too much of a hassle. For the built-in parallel apps on android only work for social media type apps. Seems like my best bet would be work profile.

      True, for just the seperate app this works. Other App cloners would change IDs and shit to make that work, no idea about signing keys or updates. Work profile is the only stable way, apart from seperate profile

    Shelter, Insular (f-droid, FLOSS fork of Shelter), or Android Work Profiles/User Profiles if your phone lets you manually control them. If not, Shelter or Insular manage it for you.

    On Samsung, Secure Folder will also do it.

    These create a separate user profile that is shown with a little icon on the corner of the app icon, separate from your main phone user profile (this includes being separate from your VPN connection, if any, keep that in mind). They’ll all do what you’re trying to do if you stick your games in them.
