  • No. Store Apps are using a Runtime which is not a part in Windows 7. – Martin Apr 28 '15 at 22:11
  • Perhaps you could run a Windows 8+ VM or boot to a Windows 8+ VHD on an otherwise Windows 7 box. Otherwise you'd need to backport the game app to Win32. – Filip Skakun Apr 29 '15 at 01:36

There's no way to install Windows Runtime on Windows 7. Windows Runtime is available only starting from Windows 8.
