So, I downloaded Lego Jurassic World on mobile as an APK. On launching the game it displayed Chinese text. On translating the text, I found out that it was Chinese Age-verification. How do I bypass this. Or do I not bypass this at all and download another version

    This is NOT age verification. It is asking for your real name and ID number, quite typical of many Chinese services for Chinese citizens.

    Uninstall it.

    Uninstall and Delete with extreme prejudice. Find an APK that has this removed or cracked; or make sure your system locale or language do not imply you might be Chinese speaking.

    Find another version. I’m pretty sure there shouldn’t be any age verification at all considering Lego games are usually 3 or 7+

    I can’t read Chinese, only Japanese, but I think it’s asking for a name and the number of a personal ID which should have 18 digits.

    If I understood right they just want any name and any password for the parents mode

    But you got the apk for the Chinese market, which is usually ad supported, plus the language barrier

    I’ve used APKPure in the past for APK downloads. I think that site and APKMirror are okay. Try them, but be careful. I haven’t used them often, but I think they are sometimes recommended for APK downloads. Don’t think their downloads are cracked or modified in any way so if that age verification is part of the game then this might not work.

      Sidenote: I tried getting something off APKPure the other day and it only came in the form of XAPK files. Do you know how to get the APK out of them? (A cursory check suggests that XAPK might be a proprietary thing made by APKPure that only works with their own APKPure app, which feels pretty dirty to me…)
