How To Install

Palm: Open the ZIP file you downloaded above, and locate the PRC file inside (AargonPalm.prc).  Install it on your device by double-clicking it, or by running the "Palm Install Tool" and selecting the PRC file.  Then HotSync your device.

Pocket PC (Windows CE 3.00 and up): Run the EXE file you downloaded above on your desktop PC, and follow the on-screen instructions.  If you downloaded a CAB file instead, install it onto your device as described below.  Here are CAB files for ARM/XScale, MIPS, and SH3 Pocket PC devices.  These CAB files are provided on an "as-is" basis, with limited support, and are intended for experienced users only.

Palm-size PC (Windows CE 2.1x): Here are CAB files for older MIPS and SH3 Palm-size PC devices (NOT Pocket PC devices).  Install the CAB file onto your device as described below.  These CAB files are provided on an "as-is" basis, with limited support, and are intended for experienced users only.

Handheld PC (or other Windows CE-based devices not listed above):  If you have such a device, let us know, and we'll see if it can be supported.

To install using a CAB file:  1) Connect your device;  2) Open Microsoft ActiveSync on your desktop PC and click the "Explore" button;  3) double-click the device's "Windows" folder and then the "Start Menu" folder (for Pocket PC devices, you must first double-click "My Pocket PC");  4) drag the CAB file you downloaded above into the device's "Start Menu" folder;  5) go to your device and tap the Start button, and then tap the CAB file.

When the CAB file has finished installing, it will be deleted automatically from the Start Menu.  Assuming installation was successful, a shortcut to "Aargon" should now appear under Programs/Games.

How To Play

After installing the program on your device, open the "Games" folder/category to find the Aargon  icon, run it, and then tap the Tutorial button.  Built-in help is available from the Help menu for various screens.  Online Documentation and Hints are also available.

How To Purchase/Register

The trial version allows you to play all the Beginner Levels.  To play the other 120 built-in levels, click one of the Buy It icons above, or use Pocket Aargon's "Purchase" or "Register" menu command to learn how to purchase the complete version and receive a registration code that will unlock them.

You can also visit the Twilight Games web site to complete your purchase for the Palm or Pocket PC version.  If you want to take advantage of built-in level editing and create your own packs and levels, be sure to purchase the Premium Edition to receive a Premium registration code, which will unlock those features as well.

When purchasing, be sure to include your HotSync ID (aka User Name), as displayed on the Pocket Aargon Registration screen.

Once your order has been processed, your Registration Code will be automatically emailed to you.  Enter that code on the Pocket Aargon Registration screen to unlock all the remaining levels.  If you have lost your registration code, visit our Registration Code Support page.

Pocket Aargon should also work with recently announced devices too, such as the Palm OS 5.2-based SAMSUNG SGH-i500 and Pocket PC 2002-based SAMSUNG SGH-i700 "smart phones".  However, devices such as these should not be confused with Windows CE-based Smartphones, which use a diffferent operating system, and are not currently supported.

Pocket Aargon was designed and developed by Jeff Parsons of DoubleBit Software, based on the game concept, level designs, and artwork of Aargon Deluxe, in cooperation with Twilight Games.
