    I saw a video in youtube that someone was using ps3 controller on his sony xperia. You can try buying the cheapest controller you can find, you also need to find a cable converter for your phone to use usb.

    I can play AL in my laptop/PC using the cheapest controller I found. You just need a software xpadder (free).

    Don't try the gamestop controller, it doesn't work as I've already tried it.

    The issue you're going to find is that Arcane Legends for android / ios uses touch commands, so even when you find a controller / input device that will send the movement keys 'wasd' or any of the attack commands, it doesn't work. I'm pretty sure it can't really be done unless you start diving into things that would violate the terms of service which is definitely not advisable. I've tried using a bluetooth keyboard as well which also doesn't really work.

    Best of luck!

    You screen shot the game, you load up six axis.
    With sixaxis open, you load the screenshot as the background. Now you can assign the buttons and controls by dragging and dropping circles that represent triangle, square, up, etc onto the area where you want. Save the config. Pretty much done.
