- Best classic feel: a 7.6-style world that installs from Chrome.
- Best polish: Old School RuneScape.

02What good mobile controls look like
An old-school MMORPG lives or dies by its controls on a phone. Look for a virtual joystick that supports diagonals, tap-to-attack that forgives imprecise taps, and a hotbar you can resize.
03Browser MMORPGs: no Play Store needed
Some of the best old-school games skip the Play Store entirely. A browser MMORPG runs in Chrome and can be added to your Home screen, where it opens full screen like a normal app. No APK, no permissions to approve, and updates are automatic.
