Let’s Play Video Games

Or watch others do it, anyway

- j.r. bookwalter

Too lazy and/or cheap to play video games? Stuck trying to make progress on the hottest new game? A new app called Let’s Play Video Games will let you lean back and watch someone else do all the heavy lifting — though it’s dedicated to the family-friendly stuff.

On Apple TV, content is sorted into categories like Latest Games, Nintendo Games, LEG O Games, Racing Video Games, and Minecraft, which makes finding your favorites a snap. Once you’ve selected a category, there are multiple “episodes” for each, which you can play or favorite to quickly find them again later.

Given the app is free, it should be little surprise that ads play before each episode. A few of them are a little on the long side, but after that content is exactly what you’d expect, complete with subtitles.

 ??  ?? Let’s Play Video Games is a bit like YouTube, but without the vitriolic comments.
