How to Use GameLoop to Play Mobile Games on PC - MUO - MakeUseOf

There are lots of great mobile games out there, but what if you'd like to get a fuller, more visual experience from these games? While we may see it as an unfair advantage, you can play mobile games on PC through the emulator GameLoop. These work extremely well, and it is completely acceptable to use—don't worry about your account violating any terms of service.

What Is GameLoop?

GameLoop is an official Android emulator, formerly known as Tencent Gaming Buddy. With over 50 million active monthly users on the platform, it is by far the largest emulator in the world. It allows you to play classic Tencent games such as Call of Duty: Mobile, Free Fire, and more, but has also expanded recently to include a whole range of games.

It also has a newly added Streaming tab for streaming TV shows and films, as well as a Novel tab for finding free books online to read.

While there are different emulators to play Android games on PC or Mac, GameLoop is the most popular and capable. However, given the advantage that a large monitor grants, be aware that other players may think you're cheesing if you are playing competitive games via GameLoop.
