Best Ways to Play Android Games on Your PC

Nowadays, it is easy to play games on smartphones instead of engaging a whole gaming console. Smartphones have made it easier to play games on-the-go, but some games don’t function well on a little touchscreen device. It can be a bit uncomfortable and difficult to handle all the controls on a smartphone, but fortunately, we can use a PC to play Android games. You can use a keyboard and mouse for playing on PC, but the best way to play comfortably would be to use an emulator to bring all the handy controls in a single place. An emulator will enable a host system to effortlessly run the software or computer devices for the guest system.

Some of the best emulators that you can use are:

GameLoop

This emulator was initially used for the PUBG mobile game. To use it, download and install the same you later on your PC. Before installing the emulator, you can check if your PC meets the minimum system requirements or not. As soon as the installation process is complete, you will find a ‘Game Centre’ that includes a lot of titles and genres. The simulator consists of all the popular apps and services, but you cannot access the Google Play Store. If you want, you can switch to the ‘My Games’ tab and install Google Play Store from the Google Installer option. If you download anything from the Play Store, then those games will have a ‘non-GameLoop’ tag on them. It includes a lot of features and customizable keyboard mapping set-up, but it does not offer the multi-sync functionality. It starts within seconds and runs very smoothly when the user scrolls through the UI.

BlueStacks emulator or MSI App Player

BlueStacks emulator or the MSI App Player as these are one of the best options available. Both the emulators are almost the same except for the fact that MSI App Player has a cleaner interface. To begin using either of the emulators, download and install BlueStacks or MSI App Player from their website. The latest version of both the emulators runs on Android 7.0 Nougat. We know that it is quite an old version of Android, but this Android version is the most recent version available for emulators used for gaming.

So, you won’t have any trouble running your games or apps using this one. Once you install the emulator from their website, sign in to your Google account. Download the apps that you want from the Google Play Store. Then, launch the BlueStacks on your computer, and you will find a ‘Game Centre’ on your PC, showing you all the recommendations from where you can choose the genre of the games.

Nox Player

This emulator is an excellent alternative to BlueStacks, and it also runs on Android 7.1 Nougat. You can download apps and games from the Google Play Store. And, download this emulator from its website and start playing games once it’s installed on your PC. The screen of this one opens some of the pre-installed apps, and on the bottom right corner, you will find a back, home, and recent apps navigation keys. You will have to sign-in to your Google account to download the apps from the Google Play Store from the Tools folder that the app offers. This app includes its own version of multi-drive and keyboard mapping tools that can be customized as well. You can also choose the performance modes to decide the graphics and display resolution. The app launchers quickly but it takes a little time to get into the gear (if you play any racing game).
