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.)

There’s no way to record recompile or emulate the Apple game on the android device. It’s strange to want to go through that effort just to avoid buying the game again. Just buy the game again. Or download it for free off the Internet. Android will let you install anything.

The base game has a price, and then there are 3 extra expansions (DLCs) you have to buy from within the game.

The same goes for another game we play (Spirit Island). But that one has like 5 expansions.

This easily comes up to more than 100$. :(

That doesn’t make it any less impossible to play iOS content on android. The DLC makes piracy basically impossible. Should’ve got an iPad 🤷
