How can I go about cracking the Android games that I own? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I own Stardew Valley but I am avoiding using the Google Play store when possible. While I could just sign into Aurora Store with my Google account I think I'd need to install Google Play Services so I am wondering if I could crack the game myself. I think in the past people used Lucky Patcher but I have tried it with other games that I own with no luck.

I've looked through the megathread and it seems like there are versions of Stardew Valley uploaded to Mobilism but a majority of them are modded for things like infinite stamina and money. The version without mods on Mobilism also appears to be re-uploaded from Apk Vision which isn't in the megathread.

Aurora store doesn't need play services and the game shouldn't either. Worth trying anyway. That said I never tried to download a paid game.

Why would you assume that a game would not require Play Services? I have experienced that issue many times, including with Stardew Valley.

Some paid games use drm which needs gplay services to function.

I had a few legacy apps on the paid store, and everything works on my /e/os without any Google, I'm not sure what does it, but I have Aurora and microG

MicroG is what probably is making it work for you. However not everyone uses microG.
