Preliminary information
As you certainly know, Burraco Italiano: the challenge is available exclusively on smartphones and tablets, through the Google Play Store and other Android stores , or the iPhone and iPad App Store . However, you can easily download and use it from your PC, using an Android emulator .
For your information, such programs can reproduce the Android environment in a secure virtual machine, running on computers with other operating systems, such as Windows or macOS.
The most obvious advantage of this approach lies in its ease of use and total independence from the underlying operating system : in fact, the installation of Android on a “physical” machine is not required, thus eliminating any problems due to system startup operating systems, as well as the potential impact on system disks and files already installed on the computer.
Not all, however, is “roses and flowers”: Android emulators need a series of very specific technical requirements which, if not respected, could result in a not very fluid emulation. However, for titles with not complex animations such as “Burraco Italiano: the challenge”, even a PC with not exactly exceptional hardware performance may be sufficient.
In the following bars of this guide, I will therefore show you how to play Burraco: the challenge on PC using some famous (and free) emulators for Android.
