New beta release on Android
If you're one of the 980 players who are on the beta branch on Android, you should get a new update today if it passes through Play Store Review.
Anyone can join the beta from the WazHack Play Store page.
This update fixes a couple of minor issues but primarily it is to comply with new API requirements from Google. I'm determined to keep WazHack available for as long as I can. I may even add a few fun updates if this essential one goes well (updating everything is 90% of the work of making a new update, so might as well have some fun too!)
Please report bugs here for maximum visibility for all players.
My goal is to release this as the public version in no more than 2 weeks, hopefully sooner if testing goes well.

This will always be one of my favorite games of all time. I remember doing door to door sales ten years ago (and hating it) but one of our tools was an ipad and I was able to put WazHack on it. Ended up spending many days goofing off in the dungeons instead of knocking on doors. Won my first playthrough sitting on a beach in a Bostonian suburb. Thank You, Waz.

Anybody know how to install from Play Store? I am not seeing anything but the usual options...

The option to join the beta (if you haven't already) should be visible on the WazHack store page. Failing that, you can see the option directly here:
https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.wazhack.WazHack
Google sometimes rolls out updates to regions slowly, so it may take a little longer before you can see it.
You'll know you've got the right version if the game version in the title of Options>Game shows at least 1.4.6.3284 (with the 3284 being the all important build number).

Other than the controls, it's the same. If you have a larger phone, turn off "Compact" mode and it's even more the same.
And instead of $10 it's 8x$1 (so just $1 if you only have a favourite character you'd want to play mobile).

I might just buy the android version just to support you ( even though i have never ever bought a mobile game LOL) . I have gotten way way more value of the PC version than what you asked for it. and to be honest, I still have never beaten it. Some days it my favorite game of all time. Other days games that are trending might nock it down a spot or two for a while.
so Thank you Waz.

Xin chào bạn tôi là người chơi đến từ Việt Nam tôi rất thích trò chơi này của bạn tôi đã dành rất nhiều thời gian để cố thằng game này, nhưng nói thật thì tôi đang gặp khó khăn về ngôn ngữ nên tôi mong muốn bạn có thể thêm ngôn ngữ tiếng việt để tôi có thể dễ dàng hiểu rõ về các vật phẩm vũ khí của game hơn đây chỉ là lời góp ý cảm ơn vì đã đọc xin cảm ơn, 😁
