Basically I want to pirate android games that are mainly on google play, I’d get the switch ports but I doubt they’d run well

So, where do I pirate android games safely? Also what about switch games?

Thx

    for android apps, the mobilism forum is great, thoughb only questionably safe, I guess. it’s all one click hosters, which sucks, but the apks are usually small enough in filesize to not make it a big deal. Just come armed with a good ad blocker, I guess. You can also try your hand at cracking/patching apps yourself, right on your phone with stuff like lucky patcher

    for switch, I’m not sure, they’ll usually be among other gaming torrents on all sorts of trackers in my experience

        If you have an unlocked bootloader phone with a working xposed module, see if you can use an app such as Xprivacy to block all the permissions of every pirated app just for good measure. This method bypasses the Google permission system and apps aren’t able to detect blocked permissions this way.

    Are there any phone games worth playing? The whole market seems to be saturated with shovelware I’ve given up long ago.

          I know, but mainly I’ve bought a copy of Terraria on other platforms and I don’t have means to pay online

          They already made money hand over fist.

          I guarantee they are richer than you will ever be.

              Yeah, but they already got it.

              How much is enough? Lol.

              In your mind, nothing. There is no amount of money they can make off of a game that will have you say “it’s okay to pirate it now.”

                You’d want people to pay you for using a product they consume, especially if it’s a quality product. You sound like you’re entitled to free shit just because someone made their “fair share” off a game, and I’m sure that fair share is whatever arbitrary number you deem valid, which I’m guessing is low.

                I’m saying, pay developers if you enjoy their stuff, especially indie developers. Vote with your wallet. Make it known you enjoy their stuff, so they make more of it. If you want to pirate, feel free, I encourage it, but also pay people what their worth if you can afford to do so. That’s my main point.

                For you, do whatever the fuck you want because you’re not interested in listening to logic or reasoning anyway.

                  Lol. It’s sad watching people like you twist your brain in knots to avoid admitting when you’re being taken advantage of.

                  Spend your money how you want :P

      No, not really.

      Phones are best for emulating old games if you have a controller.

      Otherwise, I’d just read a book on my phone than play a shitty game with touchscreen controls.

    You can also try platinmods, it’s a forum, so most likely you have to register to see the links.

    Switch: NXBrew

    Android: dFast, Happymod and if you can’t find a modded version of it, try patching with Lucky Patcher.

    For apps you could try Aptoide ig. Idk the state of the app currently but you can look up what people are saying about it in terms of safety etc
