Is there anything actually worth playing on this platform?
No.
I was also wondering that. Anything worth playing is just a port of a PC game. Like Slay the Spire or Dead cells.
And the few that aren’t PC ports have ports on PC.
There was one game I often recommend, but just found it here: https://www.silvergames.com/en/yellow
no
You can see all the games here - https://play.google.com/googleplaygames/allgames
From what I could see there was basically nothing of note. Maybe Jetpack Joyride if you want to indulge some 12 year old mobile game.
Wait it’s all shovelware always has been meme .jpg
I remember crashlands being one of the half decent games on mobile but even that released on steam.
This would be interesting if it utilized my existing Android library.
However, they appear to have learned nothing from Stadia: people are not going to “purchase” games they already own elsewhere on a platform that will disappear in two years.
Is this just a first party alternative to bluestacks?
No, because at least bluestack’s has decent support. There is only a handful of games actually supported by this, whereas bluestacks supports most games.
I mean technically I guess it’s an alternative… but it is a super crappy one.
Almost as bad as the connection of titles, the performance is so pretty garbage too. Especially compared to running apps in Windows 11. I made a short when it launched and still get people whining “but he’s complaining about a BETA?!?!”, like Google’s terrible performance is excusable, and we haven’t had better emulation for years now.
Why. I mean it could’ve been worth something if Sonic remasters were still stuck on the phone but those times have passed.
