How do I patch an android game I paid for, but now doesn't work because the devs shut a server off? (lemmy.world)

I paid for Puzzle Quest 2 on android like a decade+ ago. It is a local single-player game. It has a validation check when you open the app. That check fails because this game is ancient and the servers are offline.

I want to replay the game I paid for. I have the APK from an APK site. It's even been pulled from steam to push their crappy p2w pq3. Anyone have tricks to crank an APK and bypass a server check? I've decompiled the APK but am in a bit over my head.

What would be a safe place where to download Lucky Patcher?

Its official site is https://www.luckypatchers.com/

I don't think the link is legit. Lucky patcher is long gone. Better search on archives or some ru forums.

The application from all versions link to there, that's how I know it's legit. Check info section of wherever you find the application from.

But the site looks really sketchy I agree with you on that. Unbrowsable without adblock
