How to Download Apps for Android Tablets: Important Android Tips
You can play games on any Android device, but not all games are supported on tablets. Games and apps that require a cellular connection, like Pokémon Go, aren’t available on Android tablets. Additionally, some games only work with specific versions of Android. Games that aren’t compatible with your device won’t appear when you search the Google Play Store.
Many games are free to download, and some offer in-app purchases. Other games require pre-purchase. If you want to play a game outside of the Google Play Store, you can sideload apps onto Android. However, sideloading carries risks and there is no guarantee that the game will work.
The Google Play Games app (not to be confused with the Google Play app) has games that you can play for free without downloading them to your device. Google Play Games comes pre-installed on all Android devices.
