Completed Stela.
It's nice but the weakest of the Apple Arcade games I played.
Too bad because some levels are truly inspired.
Technically it's gorgeous BUT the main character, controls are ok-ish...but some expecially the rotating wheels are really frustrating.
The main problem for me is...there is no plot. It's just a sequence of settings totally unrelated from each other's....you start in a Inside world (first two levels are a homage or a blatant copy, you decide) which seems on earth...then...it changes (and these are the best levels, with some rare clever puzzles...
even if never too difficult). And then....it ends.
With a stronger focus on plot and cohesion could have been a much better game...like Another World or Inside.
It's neither.
Some levels are really cool to look at.

Attack with 5. Color dependent, so that's a blue one.What am I supposed to do against this 5 guy? I think I missed the tip at the start, but I can never select him even if I have cut up five guys beforehand...
The White Door, the next adventure from Rusty Lake and (and quite a departure stylistically) is coming out November 26th and you can pre-order now:
Bad North: Jotunn Edition is now out on iOS ($3.99):
Looking forward to some previews on this iOS version.
Edit: Seems to be gone, now.

As previously stated, GameClub, the subscription service for old iOS games, has been soft launched in some countries including Netherlands. The official launch date is now set for October 24th for the rest of the world and the service will be $4.99.
You will get each game for free if you bought it at any time before (that's really neat for such old games). Seems like the ad-supported version is no longer on the cards, at least in this announcement. Games will still be released weekly (twice a week).

I own every game I'd want from GameClub right now so even less reason to join now. Wouldn't have anyway with Apple Arcade and new games my primary focus.
But surprised they are allowing previous purchases to get those games free. Really seems to eat into the reason many would subscribe to be able to play their old favorites.

What is the LoL thing? Are they announcing/releasing a mobile version??
Yes, seems like announcement tonight, pre-reg tomorrow.
Plays like a quicker LoL, no more Vainglory/Mobile Legends/Arena of Valor baby game. 4 abilities, last hitting. ~40 heroes at launch.
Leaked footage:
Sounds like we'll also be getting news of the League CCG, which is probably mobile-bound as well. Hopefully it's something more than just another Hearthstone.
There's a huge difficulty spike at the beginning of the game, but you're golden once you get over it.
Some tips:
- Don't always try to attack every turn. You may have to bide your time and position yourself to hit enemies just right.
- It's a mistake to always try and gather as many tiles as possible every turn. Sometimes leaving a wall of tiles between you and enemies is just what you need to keep them from reaching you.
- If all else fails, play levels with the goal of gathering Justice Tokens so you can use an ult in a hard level.
- If you're trying to do any of the sub-objectives, drop them and just focus on survival. Some of the sub-objectives seem specifically designed for you to revisit later once you have many more powers and options at your disposal.
Wow that looks cool, finally I can play some League. Is there a thread about the announcement? I can't even find a LoL OT on ERA..
Photographs on sale for the first time at $1.99. Haven't played it though I have heard it's pretty depressing. Worth grabbing?
It is depressing and I think the writing is pretty bad. It's quite a cool concept though and worth playing. For that price you might as well.
Yeah, looks like a pretty significant bug was in the game so they had to pull it. They said on twitter it should be up before the end of the week though.
Getting a little worried about Rayman Fiesta Run on my iPad Pro.
It's been months now and it still doesn't launch. Not sure if it's the new software or if it's ever been compatible with iPad Pro devices, but it's a shame I still can't play it.
I know there's a new Rayman Runner on Arcade, but I'd still like to play Fiesta Run since I did pay for it.

After our last message here I sent a message to Ubisoft's mobile team and they're aware of it. Whether or not it's going to be fixed remains to be seen though.
This is a new bug related to iOS 13.
EDIT: For anyone who tried Inmost and got stuck at the first screen, this has been fixed on the latest patch.
Well at least they're aware of it.
I can't recall Ubisoft abandoning any of their movie games (yet), so hopefully it'll get a patch when they're able to get around to it.
Apple Arcade title Grindstone has received a big update reducing the game's size by 1.2Gb, letting you mute the music and play your own in game and adding new animations:
I really hope that's a sign that most Arcade developers can shrink their games more and they're just bloated in a rush to get on the service as I find the size of some of these games ridiculous.
A lot of Arcade games came in pretty hot, so were missing content, features, or optimizations that didn't quite make it. We have our first update in submission, with the next one after that in a few weeks. I'm guessing a lot of the other games will see similar rapid updates and improvements.
I don't know, I just thought it was boring and the story didn't really catch me.
Manifold Garden, an amazing looking adventure/puzzler, is coming out this Friday to Apple Arcade:
This looks cool. Yeah, it's a match 3 game but has some roguelike elements and its completely premium:
This is really good. While it's unique, it gives me a Grindstone meets Plants vs Zombies vibe. And once you get past the tutorial, it gets challenging fast. Great enemy variety, tough bosses and strategy required to avoid getting wiped out quick.
Just watched a quick look for Doraemon story of the seasons on switch. It seems perfect for mobile. What are upcoming games similar to this:
Anybody else addicted to Cookie Clicker all over again, thanks to the Android version? I knew I should have just stayed away but...nope.
Pac-Man is fun, expecially with friends.
Mainfold is like the 3D no gravity version of The Witness....it's like I'm inside a Rubik cube.
I've managed to crack various rooms but the first structure is immense!!!
EDIT: ok I managed to exit the first structure and then...whoa.....this thing is BIG.
No clue what to do now...this could be too much for my brain.
Do we know if there is a story/an objective?
