How do I make mouse click behave like a true click in iPhone Mirroring?

When using the iphone mirroring feature on the mac, you can type and use your mouse to click in lets say the notes app


But on some games, the keyboard functions perfectly for movement, typing, and controls, but the mouse pointer is treated like a finger tap and not as a mouse input.


I tried connecting a bluetooth mouse to the phone but it doesnt affect the mirroring and instead wakes the iphone and moves a pointer around the lock screen.


is there a workaround for this? and if not, is there a way to make left click on the mouse actually do a left click and not a finger tap in the assistive touch options for mouse pointer?
