Why don't certain games on my phone wont work?

[Android Central Question]

There are some games on my phone that don't work. Upon opening one, it'll tell me to disable screen overlay permission, but when I go to the settings, the app doesn't even have that permission.

Welcome to Android Central! There might be some other app with a Screen Overlay that's interfering with the game. See this article: https://www.howtogeek.com/271519/how-to-fix-the-screen-overlay-detected-error-on-android/
