Premium smartwatches such as Samsung Galaxy Watch, Apple Watch and others allow users to play games. These games can be downloaded directly from the dedicated stores depending on the operating system. But did you know that you can also play games on your smartwatch without any downloading and installation. This is possible through HTML5. For those who don’t know, HTML5 is a markup language that used to present content on a browser. The language is also used to create games that can be played directly on a browser with an active internet connection.
Many developers have now started to create HTML5/JavaScript versions of popular games that can be played on a smartwatch as well. Recently, software developer Oliver Klemenz created an HTML5/ Javascript version of the Prince of Persia game that you can play on your smartwatch. A few months ago, a developer also created a version of Doom that is optimised for smartwatches. If you want to know how to play HTML5 based games on your smartwatch, you can follow these steps.
Copy the link of any HTML5 based game that you would like to play on your smartwatch (For example https://princejs.com) and text it on the number paired with your wearable. You have to use a separate smartphone to do this.
Once you receive the text message, press on the link.
The link to the game will now open on the default web browser of the smartwatch.
You can follow similar steps for any other HTML5 based game as well but you should make sure that the game is optimised for smartwatches.
Currently there are very limited games available that can be played directly on the smartwatch browser but more developers are coming up with new games every month.
