Counter Strike 1.6 might just be the most popular LAN game ever made, but it's also one that required the least resources to run.

In this case, an enthusiast got it running on the Android Wear smartwatch, with a little tinkering. So, if you want to try the classic on a tiny screen, here's what you needs to do.

1) Install the APK from GitHub Releases.

If you have multi-core device, choose APK with omp postfix.

If you have single-core device or you have problems with OMP version, choose APK with noomp postfix.

2) Install the latest Xash3D Android.

3) Copy "cstrike" and "valve" folders from your Steam CS1.6 installation to "xash" folder on SDCard.

4) Finally, run the CS16Client to play.

This method was shared by Dave Bennet, who previously shared the method to run Counter Strike 1.6 on an Android Smartphone.
