And also it's very probably a malicious app that does in fact not give you any pirated games.

Probably adware at best. Wouldn't doubt it also just sends you to non-play apk downloads of malware

The thumbnail says "unofficial" and malicious apps tend to try and trick you into thinking it's official. So I'm not sure it's malicious.

So them saying it's unofficial makes you think it is more safe, since surely if it said official it'd be malicious?

Sounds like putting unofficial there might just make even more people trust it then, good for a malicious app.
