Fuck google. I just want to be able to play minit on my phone, but no, Google says it's not good enough for me because they haven't updated the app in a while. You know, like most games. Of course they haven't updated the app, the game is finished, they've moved on from it.

Login from an old phone, then once it's installed on the old phone with the same Google account, it will appear on the newer phone. Yes, it's stupid

The problem is I don't have an old phone. But yeah I eventually figured that out for a game that I couldn't find online. So what I did was created an emulator on my computer with an old version of Android and logged into my account on that.
