The iPhone 3GS was my first phone as a kid and the first thing I did was jailbreak it... So let's see what it takes to get Minecraft running and see if I can survive the night 🫡

apple actually fixed the app store on (as far as i’m aware) ios 4 and above, you might still need a tweak to get apps that you didn’t purchase at least a decade ago, but hey, at least it works (same with ios 6 siri, it was gone for some time and now it’s back, might also be back on ios 5 but i don’t have any devices running anything below ios 6 to confirm)

Oh my, in those old days, even my late cousin and I used to play Minecraft all the time. The old version of Minecraft was better than today's. I stopped playing Minecraft when my cousin passed away, and later, I noticed that Minecraft had undergone a significant new update that I didn't like. But once again, those were good memories of the old Minecraft days!

Same. I used to play the old minecraft pe before I even got my first pc. I used an old samsung phone and i remember it being laggy as fck but i just can't seem to stop enjoying it. Today, I still play minecraft but I got so bored with the current version that I can't play mc without some kind of mod. And speaking of which, you might be interested in looking up "Better than adventure" mod for minecraft 1.7.3(?). It's hard to explain but basically it's what minecraft would have been if everthing beyond 1.8 didn't happen. Also, condolences for your late cousin.
