Today almost everyone has a Netflix account. But, honestly, who uses their Netflix account to play games? If Netflix Gaming is a flop, it’s mainly because most people don’t even know how to access this part of the VOD platform. However, Netflix has produced some fine titles. Here is a tutorial to get there.
The answer to this question will be very quick: it is impossible to access Netflix games anywhere else than on a tablet or smartphone. But there is a but. There are many ways to connect your TV or PC to your tablet or smartphone. Thus, it becomes virtually possible to enjoy Netflix Gaming in a more comfortable format.
For the lazy there is the wireless solution.
If you have an iPhone, you surely know AirPlay. With a compatible PC, Mac or TV, you can project your iPhone or iPad screen. The problem is latency. When using AirPlay, there is likely to be a slight delay between when you press a key and when your character reacts to the screen. On some games, it’s too disruptive to be playable.
The Android equivalent of AirPlay is Google Cast/Chromecast. The problem is the same, for some games the slight lag of screen streaming is unbearable.
To be quieter and eliminate this evil latency, we strongly recommend using an HDMI cable. There are Lightning adapters like USB-C for a handful of euros on Amazon. In a quick link, you are good!
Regardless of your Netflix membership, you get access to the platform’s video games at no extra cost, no painful microtransactions, and no intrusive ads. Everything is free”. Some games can even be downloaded and played offline!
Play Netflix from an Android tablet or smartphone
Do you have an Android smartphone or tablet? No need to go to the Google Play Store! Everything is fine in the Netflix app. Click on the little Game tab and voila. Click on the game of your choice and you can simply download it.
If you prefer to play on a separate app, that’s also possible. Simply type “Netflix Games” into the Google Play Store (or the exact name of the game if you know it) and install the game. To open it, you’ll need your Netflix credentials.
If you’re on iOS, your application doesn’t always have the dedicated tab (some people have access to it, not all, who knows why). As a result, you often have to go through the App Store.
As for the Play Store, you just have to type “Netflix Games” to see the complete list of games on the platform. There are some nuggets like Hextech Mayhem which takes place in the world of League of Legends or Relic Hunters Rebels which is an excellent little 2D RPG.
