Let's learn a little about the game's history
Grand Theft Auto, or simply GTA, is one of those games that left an indelible mark on the world of video games. Let's dive a little into the history of this iconic game.
Launched in 2004 by Rockstar Games, GTA quickly became a huge success. This game is the seventh title in the Grand Theft Auto series and the third in the franchise's line of 3D games.
The game brings a combination of adventure, action and open world, where players can explore freely while carrying out missions.
The story takes place in the fictional San Andreas, a representation of Southern California. You play like Carl Johnson, also known as CJ, who returns home after his mother's death and becomes involved in several adventures trying to save his family and take control of the streets.
What made GTA San Andreas so special was its immense gameplay freedom and the depth of its storyline. In addition to the main missions, there were countless side activities to do, such as going to the gym, changing CJ's appearance, competing in street races, and more.
GTA San Andreas also stood out for its soundtrack eclectic and unforgettable, which covered different musical genres, making the player feel truly immersed in the atmosphere of the era portrayed in the game.
Over the years, this classic game has been re-released on multiple platforms, from the original PlayStation 2 to computers and now mobile devices, allowing new generations of players to experience CJ's exciting story in San Andreas.
How does the application work?
The evolution of technology has brought us from the time of large video game consoles to the era of mobile devices, where we can now carry our favorite games in our pocket. Then we can talk about the GTA Andreas app that arrived to revolutionize the world of games.
Initially released for mobile devices in 2013, the app allows you to play GTA San Andreas on your cell phone or tablet. Developed by Rockstar Games, the creators of the original game, the application is a complete and adapted version from the game, meaning you can expect the same thrilling story, unforgettable characters, and endless fun of exploring the vast world of San Andreas, all in the palm of your hand.
The app has stunning graphics, optimized for mobile devices, and controls adapted for the touch screen. Additionally, it allows players to save their progress to the cloud, so they can play on different devices without losing where they left off.
The gameplay is very similar to the console version, with some small changes to make the experience more comfortable on the smaller screen of a mobile device.
And one of the coolest things is that the app supports external controls, which means you can connect a game controller to your device for an experience even closer to the original.
