I find droidify is close, it has an issue with getting caught on some bits, but the devs are aware of the issue, Neostore isnt bad, but It seems to crash every so often?
Never tried on a TV. Give Droidify a go.
Droidify didnt work for me. An air mouse is needed for most android things on tv
Having played this game in the past, the solution I found was getting an N95/N100 box and then using KDE Connect to use my phone as a remote. Bonus: all available desktop extensions to shape your experience.
