  "account": "Far Cry, the popular first-person shooter, is now available on Android devices thanks to a groundbreaking port. Open Touch Gaming has released Sigma Touch version 1.4.2, enabling gamers to enjoy the full experience of the game on their Android phones. This unofficial port, aided by the open-source NearChuckle project, allows for full touch controls, gamepad support, and a customizable touch keyboard. The port is compatible with both 64-bit and 32-bit ARM devices, ensuring accessibility even on older smartphones. To play Far Cry on Android, you must already own a copy of the game, as it is not a free-to-download release. This port joins a growing list of PC and console game ports on Android, showcasing the versatility of mobile gaming platforms.",
  "summary": "Unofficially, that is. The game is the latest addition to the Sigma Touch lineup.",
