I have Stardew Valley and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night on my Android phone, and I’d like to put them onto my PC. It seems like most of the ways I’ve found online include using the Google Play store in some way. Which, is an option. But, though I’m no privacy purist I’d still like to resist giving Google more access to my machines if I can avoid it. So is there a way to rip or move my games from Android to PC without using Google Play?

    That being said, you want Stardew Valley and Castlevania SOTN? Why not simply use the native PC versions or an actual console emulator?

    Well I thought moving the files I own might be an easy, legal way of doing it, plus something useful to know for the future for other games and apps. But, it looks like I may be mistaken. So you’re right, this will probably be the route I take.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer!

      since you are going down that road might as well go full on and pirate the games ¯\(ツ)/¯. You’ll likely have a better time playing them on pc the intended way.

      Here those are useful links down that path. I recommend trying to find on GOG (from that list not the official one) as it’s the most straight forward, and cs,rin,ru forum for if it isn’t on there.
