What Lemuroid is

Lemuroid is a free, open-source Android emulator that gathers supported game files into one library. It scans a folder selected by the user and displays discovered games with artwork and metadata. The current release lists 23 system and platform categories, including Atari, Nintendo, Sega, PlayStation, NEC, SNK, WonderSwan, and arcade systems. Players can configure on-screen touch controls, use gamepads, and play local multiplayer. Save options include ordinary in-game saves, quick states, quick-save and quick-load shortcuts, and automatic state restoration. Display simulation and HD mode provide picture adjustments, though performance depends on the device, game, system, and settings. The app is designed for Android phones, tablets, and Android TV, with installation through Google Play or an APK linked from the project's GitHub release. Lemuroid contains no games, firmware, or copyrighted system files, so users must supply their own legally obtained files. Supported systems may not perform equally, and newer systems generally need more capable hardware. The app is free and contains no ads.
