6 Android Stores to Find Games Other Than Google Play Store
Google Play is the main Android store and you can find apps and games there. However, it is not the only one out there to download games for Android. Knowing this, we decided to compile the best alternative game stores to Google Play.
Each of the stores we will show you below has characteristics that set it apart from the rest, so we have no doubt that any of these stores may interest you.
In addition, we will not only give you the names of the stores, but we will also leave you the link so that you can visit them online or download them. Without further ado, here we leave you with the list of Android game stores other than Google Play Store.
- Tap Tap
The first store on the list is TapTap. Here you will find games developed in Asian countries. The detail is that games are uploaded here before they are officially released so that the community can test them.
- Epic Games Store
This is another great option for downloading games. Best of all, if you want to play Rocket League, Fall Guys, or Fortnite on Android, this is the store to use. Because? Because Epic Games owns all of these games and decided not to distribute them via the Google Play Store to give more importance to their own store.
- Itch.io
If you prefer indie games, this game store is a good choice. It has a lot of unique games that you won’t find on other platforms, and it’s a platform where independent developers can publish their games without the need for middlemen. It doesn’t have an Android app, so you’ll have to explore its games from your browser and download them as APKs.
- F-Droid
Of all the stores we have presented to you, F-Droid might be the one we have recommended the most on Houhou Information Technology in previous occasions. Unlike the rest of the stores mentioned above, this store focuses on providing simple open source applications and games, does not contain micropayments and does not display ads or promotions. So, if you are looking for a basic game, you will definitely find in F-Droid the best option.
-Updated
This is a fairly complete store where you can find a diverse catalog of games and apps. Best of all, it has no regional restrictions and offers games that have already been removed from the Google Play Store. You can use it by downloading its app or through its website (it allows you to download games in APK format).
- QooApp
Finally, we have QooApp. It is the least popular on the list, but it is still a good option, especially if you like games developed in Asia (China, Japan, Korea, etc.). In this store, you will also find a large number of games that you will not find on Google Play, such as mobile games exclusive to Japan.
