Identify the Smiling Critters game
The game you are looking for is Mob Entertainment's cooperative survival game, also described as A Smiling Critters Adventure. You play a small Critter, explore the factory, collect resources, and work with teammates to escape.
Poppy Playtime chapter games and similarly named experiences are separate products. A phone listing that uses a familiar character or a similar title does not establish that it is the mobile edition of Escape from Playtime.
Check a phone download before treating it as this game
Compare the exact title, publisher, and platform details. The confirmed release is the Windows Steam game. Do not treat an APK, a browser game, or another platform's experience as the same release merely because its name includes Playtime.
If playing natively on your phone is essential, wait for an announcement that explicitly names Android or iOS and explains how that version is distributed. There is no confirmed mobile launch schedule to work around yet.
The itch.io listing titled Escape From Playtime Mobile Test identifies itself as a fangame and offers a PNG image for download. It is not a confirmed Android or iOS version from Mob Entertainment.
PC streaming is a different setup
Displaying a PC game on another device does not create a native phone version. It still depends on the PC game and whatever streaming setup is being used.
Streaming also should not be assumed to reproduce every input or communication feature correctly. The earlier beta had a specific Steam streaming input and voice issue, so it is not a sound basis for promising a complete mobile substitute. For the confirmed launch experience, plan around the Windows installation.
