Spellchecker doesn't work in a game

I use gboard as a keyboard. In whatsapp, texting, notepad, spelling errors are underlined in red. In the game dustlands, they are not.

Does anyone know how spellcheckers, keyboards, and apps, interact in android? I asked the game makers and they said it was up to android to do it.
 
it will depend on the spell checker app on how it runs in the background. you have to try various ones and see if they work with the game you are trying to use. i do not think that there is something within the android operating system them can dictate when it can use spellcheck.

Any suggestions? I don't want to have to go through loads! Which is best/most likely to work?

Spellcheck will mostly work within the android environment, but within a game? I don't think so. As ocnbrze mentioned, you'll have to try other spell checker apps...

Why should it not work within a game? I asked the game (Dustlands) developer and they said they don't impose restrictions on spellcheck.

It is just a game, relax it is not like it is timed or anything.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but of course it is timed. Anyway it's nothing to do with time, but typing perfectly, as it's a multilingual game, and a spelling error causes it's translator to fail, so foreigners don't understand me.

Well I do not know if you are really being a joker or not, anyways I wasn't anyways, besides use a brower then type up the words that come with it, or use appunwrapp for a walkthrough.
