Even when it comes to the more general gaming crowd, a lot of people have actually got into the gaming scene thanks to the emergence of affordable yet powerful smartphones that not only support the games but actually work without a hitch.

One of the most asked questions is whether these Android games can be played on the PC. This may be because certain gamers find playing on the PC a lot more convenient. The good news here is that you can actually play Android games on the PC, and the only thing you need, is an Android smartphone emulator.

The main focus for Bluestacks is mobile gaming, but we have found that you can run almost every app on the Play Store, on the PC using this emulator.
