Unfortunately not. As a rule, your iOS games cannot be played on your laptop. If you are in the fortunate situation of having a Mac with an M1 processor, then there is an option. It requires the developer of the game to make it available on MacOS. If so, you can find your games in the MacOS AppStore under your purchased apps profile.


However, you should not be worried about losing your games. They will always be able to be downloaded again, under purchased apps on your iOS device.
