I assumed I would boot up the app and there would be a big red button saying GAMES … but no. I have to sign up to PREMIUM. Then find the YOUR PREMIUM BENEFITS section. Then find EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES and select TRY EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES. Then find the TRY GAMES ON YOUTUBE part therein and tap on TRY IT OUT.

I wouldn't pay for Youtube...

Tbh paying for YT was pretty good but the company kept making decisions that were worse and worse for creators, repeatedly failed to protect creators, and they raised the price so i cancelled it.

My current stance is that i will quit YouTube before i watch ads.
I'm open to being a paid member again but for the older, lower price and YT will need to be more on the side of creators. This will not happen, so 🤷‍♂️

Google has been dreadful for a long time and do not care. They only need creators so they can milk the content and take the lion share of the revenue.

YouTube are pushing more and more adverts so people are more likely to pay them. Straight up manipulation.
