There's no requirement for games to offer saves that transport easily between devices.

And, unfortunately, no incentive for game devs to do so, nor to bundle the iOS and tvOS versions of the app together. The requirements for the touch screen based, not always connected, w/ huge local storage iPad, and the game-controller based, always connected, w/o local storage Apple TV are very different.

One year ago, when I implemented MFi GC support in Necropolys Encounter for iOS and tvOS, I also did some tests on the Mac with the Stratus XL. The test code did not detect all API calls on the Mac. I don't remember if it was a button, a trigger/shoulder, or a thumbstick that was not detected. Haven't tried with the Nimbus and the most recent macOS. In Apple Stores in Canada they carry the SteelSeries Nimbus and the Horipad Ultimate, and they both have the Mac compatibility icon printed on the box.
