How to Play Mobile Games Through Netflix
The easiest way to get a Netflix game on your phone is through the Netflix mobile app. Open it up and log in (if needed), then scroll to the Mobiles Games content section of the app. For me, this is usually the very first category. If you can’t find it, search “Mobile Games” and it should come up. Or, if you’re looking for a specific game, you can search for it by name.

To play a specific game, click on that game’s icon. This will take you to an info page where you can click the Get Game icon.
This will bring you to an explainer screen if this is your first time downloading a mobile game via Netflix. Hit continue, and you’ll see an App Store pop up at the bottom of your screen. Hit the “Get” button, and it will take you to your app store’s download page as usual.

Once the app downloads and you launch it for the first time, you’ll need to log in with your Netflix credentials in order to play the game. If it’s your first time using Netflix Games, you’ll also be prompted to set up a gamer tag. Once you do, you’re all set to play your mobile game as you normally would.
