[Q] Playing android games on PC? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
I know this is a weird question but is it possible to play android games on pc with an emulator or something? I heard that there is an android emulator for pc so you can check out the os design and stuff like that but is it possible to install games (.apk) on it and play it?
Thanks for answers.
The Android SDK comes with an emulator, and you can use adb to install apps onto it, but it is incredibly slow!

Though that's likely to not work with some games - if they've used any C++ code, that'll be compiled for the Arm CPU rather than x86
Youwave for Android works great! My son wanted to play Robodefense on the PC so I found this little piece of software that's simple and uses .apk files I had on my G-Tablet.

I had high hopes for youwave after installing Android SDK and packages (They were really slow). Youwave seems nice and quick, but the first two apps I tried to play wouldn't work due to them not being supported by youwave
You can use Emulators to play games on PC
Some emulators come with inbuilt app store from which you can install and play the games.
For example Youwave. But they do have limitation like they cannot handle games that use ARM native code.
Also some famous games like fruit ninja , Angry Birds are available to be played online itself.

Remix Os - As a gaming platform
Remix OS seems to run almost all the games I threw at it. All apps have worked too without any problem. Good job devs. However, when I play Republique, faith gets stuck on the beginning of the level. Does anybody have a solution to it? It runs fine on my phone, but on remix she gets stuck. EDIT: Okay, got it running. Here is a tip: To ensure that games work properly on remix os, right click on the game icon and select "Open in Fullscreen Mode". That should solve any problem regarding any games. Maybe, this trick also works if any app malfunctions. Hope this helps.

All unity based games work just fine.
