Detect if an App is a game 100% reliably #5

We still dont have a fail proof way to detect if an app is a game:

Current strategies:

  1. Detect SurfaceView
    • App may prevent loading surface view in time for detection
  2. Get Request to Google Play Store, parse html for clues,
    • Most games have an "About this game" header, but Minecraft EDU doesn't but its a game. The surface view also isnt found in time.
  3. NEED ANOTHER STRATEGY
    • detect app libraries
    • http request another resource for this data?
