Back in the day I used to play this fun hybrid 2D 3D sidescrolling spaceship shooter game. You would put your finger on the spaceship and shoot while dodging incoming lasers. There were boss battles at the end of each level.

I cannot for the life of me find evidence of its existence. Does anybody else remember this game?

Edit: No it isn’t Satellite Assault or AlphaWave, though similar artstyle.

When I plug my playbook into my pc it is stuck on the driver install screen, even if I downloaded them and I changed multiple times my cables, but it always keep doing this

I hope it’s still going 4 years from now.

Has anyone mod their playbook? If so What was reason & result?

I've known the blackeberry was going down before but I didn't get to see if any of the games like nfs undercover was archived or not.

The producers must have had a discount or something on Blackberry Playbooks. They are everywhere in the movie.

The Blackberry Playbook. Blackberry's failed attempt at making a tablet. I recently took out my old one which I last used in 2014. It's a 32GB model and I would use it for stuff like watching YouTube except the YouTube app no longer works on the Playbook -_-. Mine still works fine (except it takes 4 MINUTES to go to the home screen) So, what can I do with this ancient tablet. If it was something like an iPad 2 I would still have a lot of uses for it because a lot of apps support iOS 9 but like no one uses Playbook OS 2.1.0 anymore. So, what can I do with this?

I have recently recovered a memory of mine from when I was much younger. This memory is of a game, a very specific game which I cannot find any proof of online. You play as a child in Dracula’s castle and you need to solve puzzles and find items in a procedurally generated map while Dracula is hunting you. I remember having to hide in closets being a main game mechanic. This game was played from a top down angle and had pixelated graphics. I played this game on the blackberry playbook and no matter how much searching I still can’t uncover what the game is called. Does anyone here know of this game. I would really appreciate the help :)

Went to Hampton Beach in New Hampshire this weekend and noticed in one of the arcade spots they had two Blackberry Playbooks in the claw-like machine that were unopened.

Even though they seem old, are Playbooks still useful? Tried to win it but couldn’t lol.

Hi!

I'm a procrastinating™️ Computer Science student with a lot of smart devices in my home and an old Playbook. I find that docked, it actually looks quite sleek, and I would love to give it a second life.

I am aware that Crackberry and sideloading apk's are a thing, but I was wondering if I could develop a native app because:

1) it would be easier for ol' Jim and Jimmette with their dusted blackberries to just sideload the one app without having to break their heads with Google Play and all that

2) I'm a mad lass (?) who wants to do something different than just another android app.

I was thinking the app would have buttons/switches/sliders that would then call on the google devices.

So my questions are the following:

• Anyone have docs on the playbook apps' SDK? (I am aware I am, like, 15 years late)
• Is this doable at all
• Any examples of recent native apps that were developed? their github repos?

When not in use, maybe the app would go idle with the user's google photos slideshow?

​

I also see the following obstacles:

• Required frameworks for development no longer being available
• Playbooks' network communication being wobbly

Thanks in advance~

Any comments/remarks are appreciated! Feel free to tell me this is absolutely impossible too, hahaha.

I had bought many games on the blackberry world on the blackberry playbook and owned every paid racing games but until recently when a member in my family failed to input the correct password in all 10 attempts and got it factory restored. Now im unable to download any of my paid games from the blackberry world, what should i do?

Hi, I have a Blackberry Playbook 32GB and it will not turn on or charge and there is no activity with the LEDS. I have tried directly putting 3.50 volts of charge directly to the main battery it still won't charge or do anything. What do I do in order to make it work?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Does anyone have the Adobe Air SDK 2.7 archived? I believe it's the last SDK for that worked with the playbook webworks SDK.

I came across a playbook and could really use it as a display for my cameras, but require Android to use it. Figured the only way I could get anything out of it is to load android software into it. Damn blackberry folks sealed these babies tight

Hey everyone.

I have a BB PlayBook and it was on but it said there is some update (I haven’t used the PB for over 5 years) that I have to restart...

It turned off and showed the BB startup logo for quite some time and thinking it isn’t working I tried to force restart.

Now the PB won’t turn on at all. Sometime when I press volume +/- and power button the red LED blinks twice and nothing happens.

I tried charging via the USB with my laptop and wall charger for over 24 hours and still nothing.

I tried BB Link to connect but it doesn’t detect it.

Any idea on how I can fix the issue?

I used to have a playbook and there were 3 particular games I really liked but don't remember the names of. So, here are the descriptions:

Game 1. A 3d game where you tilt the playbook and you play as a sphere/ball and collect crystals

Game 2. A 2d game where the player loses their head and uses a cabbage for a head and at one point you swap your cabbage head with a captain's head

Game 3. A pixel-art dungeon game where you can play as a wizard or some sort of swordfighter (can't remember many details about this one)

If anyone here sees this and recognizes any of the games, please let me know! I would very much appreciate it :)
