Whether you are looking for a simple way to debug the apps you are developing for mobiles or perhaps, you would like to enjoy Android-specific games on a larger screen, there are numerous reasons why an emulator could come in handy.

LDPlayer is an Android 5.1 emulator that enables you to access mobile applications and play games using your mouse and keyboard.

The setup is a quick and straightforward process that does not require special attention from your part. The app comes with a sleek and stylish interface and thanks to its side-panels, it enables swift navigation and browsing, similarly to the Android OS.

As indicated after installation, you need to download the APK packages for the games you want to play. Afterwards, you can simply drag over the interface to install or you can use the dedicated installation button, if you find that more convenient.

Take note that the tool comes with a quick link to Google Play and providing that you have or create an account with the service, you can find the games you want from here.

A noteworthy feature is that the tool comes with several advanced options to create custom mapping for the games you are playing. You can set key and mouse discs, set the view based on the game graphics or place buttons on the screen for shooting or casting spells.

At the same time, the program allows you to create macros, which can come in handy if you are playing more advanced games that rely on sensitivity of the push, tilt, drag or click. In case none of the mapping options work for your game, then you will be happy to learn that you can create a custom one just as easily.

LDPlayer can come in handy for both users and developers who do not have an Android device, but still want to try out the latest games or perhaps, test out apps developed for this operating system.
