Where do I pirate android games?

Basically I want to pirate android games that are mainly on google play, I'd get the switch ports but I doubt they'd run well

So, where do I pirate android games safely? Also what about switch games?

Thx

for android apps, the mobilism forum is great, thoughb only questionably safe, I guess. it's all one click hosters, which sucks, but the apks are usually small enough in filesize to not make it a big deal. Just come armed with a good ad blocker, I guess. You can also try your hand at cracking/patching apps yourself, right on your phone with stuff like lucky patcher
for switch, I'm not sure, they'll usually be among other gaming torrents on all sorts of trackers in my experience
- What are some safe sites. All I need is dead cells and stardew valley
  
  Check the pinned megathread post, should have what you're looking for.
  
  If you have an unlocked bootloader phone with a working xposed module, see if you can use an app such as Xprivacy to block all the permissions of every pirated app just for good measure. This method bypasses the Google permission system and apps aren't able to detect blocked permissions this way.

Are there any phone games worth playing? The whole market seems to be saturated with shovelware I've given up long ago.
- Pretty sure dead cells had an android port, also Terraria and stardew valley
  
  Just my 2 cents, but those are devs that should be supported if possible.
- No, not really.
  Phones are best for emulating old games if you have a controller.
  Otherwise, I'd just read a book on my phone than play a shitty game with touchscreen controls.

I've always used rexdl, never had a problem.
- For what?
  
  Is this a troll?

Switch: NXBrew
Android: dFast, Happymod and if you can't find a modded version of it, try patching with Lucky Patcher.

You can also try platinmods, it's a forum, so most likely you have to register to see the links.
- I done like making piracy accounts. Thanknyou for suggestion tho
  
  Bruh.

You can download any app hosted on the Google Play store from here: https://apkcombo.com/
Use Blokada 5 (requires sideloading) to block ads: https://go.blokada.org/apk5

Switch: use nxbrew. They've got basically everything.
- Hmm. Would I have to update the games myself? That's one of my switch issues
  
  Yeah, but that's required anyways for pretty much all switch piracy. Yuzu / Ryujinx make it pretty easy, hut I don't know how hard it'd be on a switch

For apps you could try Aptoide ig. Idk the state of the app currently but you can look up what people are saying about it in terms of safety etc
