As android and ipad tablets are well spread, I was thinking of a way to play mabi while lying on a bed (I know I'm lazy).
Is there such a way?
The way I thought is using teamviewer software to connect to a windows pc which actually runs the game. Then the tablet window only will be a mirror to play the game.
I wonder if there are any alternatives.

Even if there was, I think you'd end up dieing a lot in missions without a keyboard to use your hotkeys.

What about a windows tablet. Honestly I can see this as a possibility. It's completely possible to play with only a mouse and I think it would be easier using two hands on a tablet. Only problem I'd see are skills like blaze and focused fist where the hotkey needs to be held down.

yea like said before microsoft rt and pro tablets should ave the specs to run mabi. Problem is the battery life and those tablets where never really made with gaming in mind though they are powerful they dont deal with heat well with all and mabi causes a ton of heat.

A few years ago, Hackshield would stop you if you tried to play Mabi on a tablet (using touchscreen).
Basically because moving your cursor in 'jumps' rather than 'sliding' is seen as a macro by Hackshield.
If you want to play Mabi on your bed, get a big plank and put a laptop on it, keep space for the mouse and voila!
That's what I do, at least.
Also Teamviewer sucks for Mabi; it might be better to get a keyboard, mouse, and monitor with an extended range and place them near your bed, you could even think about getting a screen that you can attach to the ceiling!

windows tablets don't have relatively good battery life and they are slightly heavier and get hotter comparing to android ones.
