Does BGA work on Raspberry Pi?

Hello,
Has anyone with Raspberry Pi 4 tried to play games from BGA in a browser on it? If so, how did it play? I have an older model 3 and it was too slow for BGA.

Answering this about 2 years later:
Yes, trying it with Ark Nova on a 8GB Raspberry Pi 5, it all works and everything moves really smooth.
Note I had to use 1920x1080 modes rather than default 4K resolution (where the mouse and effects was just too slow)
With a 4GB Raspberry Pi 4 at 1920x1080 it can still work, but it is definitely slower and the UI is lagging in certain areas (updates/mouseover etc).
I would suggest Pi 5 as recommended configuration, and Pi 4 as minimum.
Based on the memory usage while Ark Nova is running on the Chromium browser, (1.4Gb) - I expect the 2GB Pi 4 to be the absolute minimum for playing BGA.
