Netflix is expanding its gaming service to more devices. Until now, the streaming giant’s games have only been playable on iOS and Android devices. But Netflix is using its streaming technology to test its games on TVs and computers as well.

The test is very limited at the moment. Only two games are available: Oxenfree (the sequel of which was Netflix’s first game from its studio) and Molehew’s Mining Adventure, a gem-mining arcade game. And the beta is only open to a few Netflix subscribers in the UK and Canada who have Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast with Google TV, LG TVs, NVIDIA Shield TV, Roku devices and TVs, Samsung smart TVs, or Walmart ONN. Netflix will add more devices later.
