;Playdate Simulator
:The official Playdate emulator by Panic, bundled in the first-party Playdate SDKas a test platform for developers. Plays most LUA Lua-coded games perfectly and does not need firmware dumped from real hardwareby itself, but by design it does not play encrypted (DRM-laden) Catalog games or compiled C games from disparate platforms. In other words, a Playdate games game partially coded in Cbut compiled on Mac won't run on the Windows simulator and vice versa because the Simulator runs compiled C code natively (as in, without emulation or interpretation).
;Cranked
;pd-emu
:Another early-stage , open-source emulator that cannot be run yet since the author has yet to integrate the Playdate API.
