I checked again this link, and I confirm it would not work.

Just seeing in the "Platform Notes" part of that page. It explicitly
says it has limitations, the port is incomplete, some modules (that are
required for GCompris) are not supported... and the list goes on, but
those already make it a no-go.

The latest version (0.97) requires android api 22+ (so from android 5.1);

though their is still older packages for older android versions available...

Which android version is running on your Samsung A50 ?

Note that you can also try to install from F-Droid, maybe that will work
better from there for this phone.
