"OK" means it works, whether some games are playable or not also depends on the machine that runs them.

My laptop just not powerful enough to run Play!? I can run most RPCS3 games and even PC games that are still coming out. 

 

Nvidia 1650 GTX i5-9300H 2.40GHz

16 GB Ram

 

Maybe I will have better luck with with the PCSX 2 fork.

Play still need a lot of code improvements and optimizations.   It's not your PC.

Play! 0.71-1.3

 

This release consolidates all changes made into a single branch and should not interfere with the functionality of any (playable) game.

Game saves and .backupram configurations are located in your Play! folder \Local\Documents\Play Data Files\arcadesaves.

I noticed that there has been a regression since 7.1-1.1 because now it is no longer possible to enter service mode by pressing L1 (1 on the keyboard) for the games Animal Kaiser 1-8 and Animal Kaiser Evo 1-6, while if I use version 7.1-1.0 I can do it

Same issue for me since 71.11 in animal kaiser games, tested with Windows virtual keyboard and two different physical keyboards and not posible to use "1" key
