In their own words
Aristeem Play
Aristeem Play streams supported PC games from cloud hardware to a browser, so users can play without downloading or installing games on their device. The listed platforms are Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web and Windows; supported devices include PCs, laptops and tablets with a keyboard and mouse, as well as devices running Chrome OS, iOS or Android. Stream quality is listed as up to 4K on every plan. A game must be in the Aristeem Play library to launch, and some titles are unavailable or cannot be added. Games marked as requiring purchase must be bought from the relevant game store; the subscription covers hardware and streaming, not the game. Users also need their own account with the relevant store, such as Steam, Epic Games or Battle.net. The subscription costs €3.99 a month. There is no free plan or trial, and an active subscription is required even for free games. Play requires a recent Chromium browser, hardware H.264 decoding, a stable connection and a keyboard and mouse or gamepad.
