Can any OOTP games be played on both a pc and mobile device?

Jeremya1um · 06-26-2022, 02:51 PM

Is there a way to purchase an OOTP game for my laptop and be able to also play it on my phone? I know OOTP Go is for mobile devices, but I’m not sure that they can be played on a laptop. I just want 1 single game that I can play on my laptop at home, save, and then be able to load on my phone and play at work on my lunch break.
Thanks for the help.

Anyone with experience with the "Steam Link" app and accessing OOTP? That's the only way I can think of that might have a shot.

I mostly use the non-Steam version so can't help but I know some Steam games can be linked to a phone via this app.

Maybe Steam deck. Issue being that the save files may be too large for steams cloud file option.

Steam link would require good internet connection at least where you using your phone if not also with your PC

My understanding is that there is no carryover from GO to OOTP 23 (or 22 or 21). They are different games. So no file transfer or sharing possible.

I loaded GO on my phone and my Ipad, mostly to play for fun when I am stranded in an airport (or at a boring party). I do have organizations/ but only play sporadically. I also have the PC version on my laptop, and the Apple version on my Mac Mini. I have never tried to transfer files between those platforms, and I doubt that it would work.
