Free game launcher
JoiPlay is a free game launcher and interpreter for specific types of games, especially HTML or for Ren'Py, RPG Maker XP/VX/VX Ace/MV and TyranoBuilder. It’s similar to apps like HAGO, TapTap Lite or Xbox Game Pass where you need to own the games in order to launch them from the app. However, it ‘translates’ the games in a way that makes it more compatible with your device.
You can also play HTML games that you would usually access on a browser when it comes to a PC. It renders them more suitable for your device, but you’ll still need to create accounts in some cases. However, some games are not compatible with JoiPlay, and some gameplay issues may exist.
Game launcher
Ren'Py, RPG Maker XP/VX/VX Ace/MV and TyranoBuilder are roleplaying games that don’t always work on mobile devices. With JoiPlay, you can launch these games from the app to make them more compatible. The one issue is that you need to install separate plugins for them to work, so it’s not an all-in-one solution.

Aimed at specific games
While JoiPlay was created specifically for games like Ren'Py, RPG Maker XP/VX/VX Ace/MV and TyranoBuilde, some HTML titles also work. You’ll want to aim for visual novels or RPGs just like these games, as they seem to work the best on the app. That doesn’t mean you can’t explore and see what else is available.
Change the experience
One extra feature that comes with JoiPlay is the ability to change settings. You can do so for specific games or globally across all of them. There’s even an HTML section, which is ideal for any browser-type games.
Enjoy your mobile gaming
JoiPlay is suitable for visual RPG games like RPG Maker, which usually aren’t compatible with mobile phones. With the right plugin installed, you can quickly launch the game from your phone while making minor adjustments in the settings.
The developer states that it’s usually compatible with most HTML games, but you’ll need to test and see which ones work the best. Just remember, it doesn’t provide any games, just a new way to launch them if you already own them.
