Play Pass is a subscription-based service offered by none other than Google. According to the description provided by Google, the subscription provides its buyers with hundreds of paid apps and games. The paid apps can be downloaded for free and the free apps are void of any ads whatsoever. With the Google Play Pass, some games even offer a few in-game contents for free. The subscription contains a ton of different apps and services. Hence, anyone who is planning to share the subscription with a bunch of people with different interests can definitely consider it.

What should you expect from it?
As mentioned in the section above, the Play Pass has a list of over 1000 utility apps and games. It is not possible to jot down every game and app that you get with the Google Play Pass. But bear in mind that, 1000+ apps are still a fraction of the apps available on Playstore. Hence, there is a high chance that you may not find the games and apps that you are looking for.
However, the price at which the monthly subscription for Play Pass is available is a lot less than the price of individual games that are available with the subscription. The monthly subscription cost for the Google Play Pass is $4.99 and the yearly cost is $29.99. The fact that many popular titles cost more than $4.99 may make the subscription worth it. But, that does not mean it is the best deal for all kinds of users. More about this is discussed further in this article.
Final verdict:
The Google Play Pass is useful for someone who constantly tries’ new games and apps. It can also be suitable for a household where all the members have different tastes in content. But that is rarely the case. Many users are okay with using the apps that are available for free. And as far as games go, if you really want to keep playing a game you like, purchasing the title itself is a good option, since you will own it for the rest of your life. It is easy for users to give into these subscription plans with the expectation to save money, but end up spending more. Hence, as an ending note, all I would say is, that Google Play Pass is worth it only if you are a tech-savvy and are interested in different apps and games. If that is not the case, you might find the Play Pass not worth the money you paid.
