Chrome OS will soon be introducing Play Store apps (Android). Does anyone know if Dominations will work on this platform when this is introduced?

Also, it's my understanding that Dominations doesn't play nice with Intel architecture. If Dominations does end up working in Chrome OS, should we assume that it still will not work with Intel-based Chrome OS devices?

I'll be getting a Chromebook very soon and would like to get one that I can use for Dominations as well if possible.

Thanks.

I use a Google Pixel Chromebook and it would be great to play Dominations on it.

Seems like a lot of games have Chrome add-ons that allow them to be played on these machines, but adding Play Store apps will be a game-changer. So I too hope that everything will go smoothly and that Dominations will work like a charm.

Just in case anyone was curious, I was able to run Dominations on my Chromebook (Asus Chromebook Flip) after switching to dev channel 53. It works, and it works pretty well. Of course, the Flip has a touchscreen, and I had to use the touchscreen to scroll the map, so it may not work on non-touchscreen Chromebooks.

I switched back to stable channel after testing a bunch of stuff (Android actually works very well on Chrome OS), but it should hit stable channel soon, so if you were thinking about getting a Chromebook anytime soon, here's one more reason to pull the trigger.

Interesting read. Are you still running DomiNations on your Chromebook and have there been any improvements to the 'Android apps on Chrome OS' feature since it was first introduced?

Now that Chromebooks can officially run Android apps, has anyone given it a go? :)

Just curious, would there be a problem syncing the game between Chrome OS (Chromebook) and an iOS device (iPad)?
