.jar does not necessarily mean its a cellphone game....its just a bunch of bundled up java .class files and resources. After you install the Java virtual machine (which you probably already have if you have ever ran a web applet), try just running the .jar from the command line using <code> java jarname </code>. Note that .jar is the same compression as .zip, and you could just change the extension to .zip and unzip the files like that.

There is something called Wireless toolkit which is used for development of Java Micro edition applications. It can run the application in a emulator mode. But for that along with the .JAR file you need a .JAD file (small one) which has the descriptor of the application, or you can just create one.
