What's your Android version? If it is 11 or higher, then no Ren'py game will run on it, unless the game's developer decides to update the game's Ren'py version to Ren'py 8 (TheArcadean, the creator of Corrupted Kingdoms, is the only NSFW game dev on itch.io who has updated his game to Ren'py 8).


For some reason, Ren'py (version 7 or lower) is not suitable for Androids 11 and higher. There is an inner bug that causes memory leaking on Android, buffer overflow or something like that. The problem is too specific and raises a unknown exception, making the Ren'py game crash right away.


The Ren'py 8 was released, being suitable for latest versions of Android (Android 11 and higher), having this mentioned issue above fixed. Also, the Ren'py 8 is the first Ren'py version that supports Python 3 (yes, they decided to start to support Python 3 after longer than a decade of Python 3 existing).


In a nutshell, there isn't anything you can do except for waiting the NSFW game devs update their Ren'py versions to Ren'py 8, and most of them actually doesn't care about that... So... Yes... There will be games which you will never play on Android anymore.

THANK YOU!  At least I know the possible cause and the IS a fix...if the creators care to try.

yeah- I'm running 11 since i try to keep everything updated for other reasons.  So few games crash like this I think there might be more creators updating. 
If JYP decides to update I would love to give this a test :) 

My phone is android 12 and runs any game fine i never had a situation where the games crashed or being unable to start the game
