Here is a quick video demonstration:

The game clearly state it is offline.

Change time add 30 days.

Everything is offline and unaccessible

This is denuvo for android, steam notifies you that games need a online check,psn tells you if online is required ,play store does not.This need to change.

And especially sinse Google is blocking 3rd party apps from September! 

Note : some free games are accessible. And others dont have the play store drm.They have built in check like subway surfers.*which is insane*

You can test this your self:

-Install a paid game from play store

-go offline

-mess up date and time to trigger the drm license

-and voila play store wont let you play any game even if it boots up

Honestly this sucks, I know its a phone bla bla bla and people now have wifi where ever they go ,and most likely this wont be an issue for most.But if a game says that its offline it should be offline indefinitely or there should be a warning.

As for my tests,this only happens to paid games (all) some offline games will break too (like subway surfers 2) but other like pvz wont be affected.
