Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini OFF for Comms but ON for games?

Can this mobile be set to appear to be switched-off for phone and texts, etc. but be 'on' to just play games? As sometimes I would just wish to use the device for playing games without the inconvenience of receiving calls - usually for about 1-2 hours a day or every so often during the week.

Hi there

 

Try activating flight mode on your handset.  This will disconnect your phone from the mobile network so you won't receive calls or texts.  Remember that some games need internet access so you may need to turn on WiFi.

You can turn off mobile "data" and keep the phone connected via WiFi to allow games that need to access online content.

Both good answers - gone into flight mode. Problem solved. Thanks!!
