I started to play this game when I was 12 years old... And I still haven't forgotten that wonderful game Gruntz were stealing my time whenever there was an opportunity. Still, I haven't reached 100 % of progress I have one question: have you ever played gruntz via COM? Does it work? If yes, will it work via bluetooth virtual COM port? (since I don't have physical COM)

(since I don't have physical COM) Internet type play does not seem to be feasible, since the slow transfer prevents the player defending an attack from realizing an attack is underway before the attacker is successful. Only a hard-wired (null modem type connection) has proved at all usable in Gruntz Battlez.

welcome to GooRoo's Gruntz forum, erebus, I'm sure you'll like it here... since you like this game so much and played all the standard levelz you may try and download some custom levelz from this forum (save them to a 'Custom' folder) and play more gamez... you may also sign to the 'Fan mail' and receive new CLz as they are released...

How can I configure this? The null-modem is a cable attached physically between two computers ... obviously rather close to one another. To play a Gruntz Battle in that way, there should be a visible barrier between the two playerz ... such as a door, or the type of pass-through that existz in many homez between the kitchen and the dining room.

A home network (usually 2 or more computers and a hub connected via Ethernet/network port) works great.
