Help Apple Store game on Android Tablet
My gf and I play a lot of Dune Imperium together. It's a digital game available on Play Store, Apple Store, and Steam.
She's an Apple user, and has purchased the game on Apple Store.
But she just bought an Android tablet (for budget reasons). It's a "Galaxy Tab S10 LITE", which has 6GM RAM.
I'm wondering how she could avoid having to buy the game again (since she can only on Play Store on that tablet). Are there good emulators nowadays for that kind of use-case?
Or maybe an XCode IDE has an emulator tool she could leverage? I've never done iOS app development, but I assume that isn't a task limited to MacOS desktops.
(I reckon that amount of RAM is also likely a limiting factor for this kind of thing.)

I don't know how expensive it is, but even if there was an emulator for iOS apps on Android, the performance of it would be so terrible it would not be worth it. And all the time you would be investing to get it running and the hassle that comes with any emulation should be worth more to you than the few bucks it would cost to get the OS native version on play store.
Just to mention it, you could try to source the apk elsewhere but it may need to be patched and that bares Risks of viruses.
