news-uw-android-stuffHappy to announce that Underworld is finally ready for Android users! If you are one of them, just stop reading this, search the Market on your device for ‘Underworld’ and join the underground of street trade right away!

OK, so what’s noteworthy about the Android version of the game?

Original game theme. After more than a year since Underworld was first submitted to the AppStore (and then rejected after unreasonably long reviewing period) we are finally proud to present the game in its original theme of the grey trade. Yep. Real controlled substances instead of gummy bears and lollipops! Sorry AppStore folks, we did what we could.

Shared game world. As we promised before, the Android players have joined the current world that exists for iPhone/iPod Touch dealers. We think it’s totally OK considering how many of SweetDeal players already use the SD2DL re-skin plug-in bringing the original grey theme to the AppStore version of the game.

UW Points to boost your performance. Many iPhone/iPod Touch players have already forgotten the UW Points and switched to in-app purchase mechanics. Unfortunately, Android Market doesn’t support micro-transactions. Not sure if it will at all. So, if you want to boost your rising to the top of the Cream of the Crop, there are plenty of UW Point packs to use. Tap the U-shaped icon in the game to get to know more.

 *  *  *

The great thing about opening Underworld to new platforms is new players. Which not only make the game more interesting (rule #1 of MMO gaming), but also give a lot of feedback. Visit About section to submit bug reports or interesting ideas and don’t forget to become a member of Underworld forum!

  • Hell yeah so will they be in our market? Where can I get the jb patch to take it back to drugs instead of candy?

  • Does the cydia source still work for the iphoe and iPods because it’s not working for my iPod touch

  • App doesnt show up in marketplace, even if you scan the qr code from androlib. I have talked to a few people who cant get this app to show up

  • Sara, not sure we can fix this on our end. We’ve opted for the world-wide distribution.

  • Cj, we have no Cydia source right now. But the drug patch is distributed by someone else: search Cydia for ‘SD2DL’, you should be able to find it. Although I’m not sure if it’s up-to-date with the latest release of the game.

    You can ask about that on the game forum. There is a topic from the guy who maintains this re-skin patch: http://uw.a-steroids.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=15

  • Hey,
    So I have the Hero too, the app isnt in there i dont know if its becuase of the hero or if its becuase of sprints network. But my boss has it on her g1 with tmobile. Plz have this fixed and email me i need to get it. It doesnt seem like anyone with the hero has it can get it…

  • BTW I have searched for hours for this app asked my boss how she downloaded it and scanned the barcode all multiple times it simply isnt there.

  • Got the game a week or two ago on my Legend and it was working fine…but since yesterday I’ve only been able to buy stuff when connected to wifi…Selling doesn’t seem to be a problem though. Is it my phone (everything else seems to be working) or the game??
