Games won't transfer to my new iPad with the same ID

I purchased an iPad 9th generation and my games won’t transfer from my IPad Air 2. My Game Center I.D is the same.

Apps are not directly transferred between devices.


For Apps, the transfer process creates a record of the Apps that are installed on the donor iPad - and it is this record of installed Apps that is transferred to the target (new) device. For Apps that (a) are still available for download from the App Store and (b) are compatible with the target device, the corresponding Apps are automatically downloaded and installed from the App Store.


Have you tried manually downloading the Apps from the App Store. Assuming that you are using the same AppleID (now known as your Apple Account), you'll be able to re-install compatible Apps without having to pay again.
