Apple Arcade Adding 20 New Games, Including a Sustainability-Focused City Builder

Cityscapes: Sim Builder

fare from passee - Sim City devs , Magic Fuel Games ’ Cityscapes : Sim Builder is an Apple Arcade exclusive that has a bunch of that series ’ DNA in it — but with a modern sensitiveness . It ’s got nomadic sensibilities , with touch control that feel plenty comfortable in my clip with it and a campaign mode focused on tackling raciness - sized challenges for various mayors across multiple city . There are also citizen requests to deal and the ability to really focus on just a single city , but one of the key vanity here is “ sustainability , ” as you ’ll have to build ballpark and immature space to manage contamination yield by your other buildings , as well as have some degree of walkability to keep your citizens well-chosen . Think of it like a more traditional take on similar ideas to those in Netflix ’s critically acclaimed Terra Nil , which focuses entirely on metamorphose bleak wastelands created by human small town into balanced ecosystems .

TMNT Splintered Fate

TMNT Shredder ’s Revenge , last year ’s throwback to the arcade game of the ‘ 90s , injected fresh lifeblood into the Turtles ’ gambling ambition , and now we ’re finally getting the next game in the series . Splintered Fate is a different approach path , an Apple Arcade exclusive with a top - down tv camera and a Hades - style roguelike approach . Players guide the Turtles through Manhattan in procedurally generated levels in a quest to get Splinter back after he ’s enigmatically gone lack , and each one has a number of particular moves that can be set off with the water faucet of a button and can combo together — for instance , one turtle could do an enemy on fire , while another turtle utilise a move that does excess terms to blazing enemy .

The game ’s to the full voice - acted , with doer like Yuri Lowenthal ( Insomniac ’s Spider - Man games ) and Roger Craig Smith ( Sonic the Hedgehog ) portraying the turtles . Other characters , like April O’Neil and Shredder , are also promised to be making appearances . While the game itself is n’t necessarily set in IDW ’s comic universe , a developer told me that it draw heavy inspiration from it , with Tom Waltz having help pen the story .

What the Car?

What the Car ? is a follow - up to 2019 ’s What the Golf ? , which launched on Apple Arcade before moving to other platform . Like that game , it ’s a comedic spin on a well - established genre , with the devs now take on racing game . player act as a car with wooden leg across the game ’s floor , which each bestow goofy changer to the idea of a racing secret plan , such as “ Car but wide-eyed , ” and “ Car but with a jetpack . ”

There ’s also a fresh level builder , which should assist the game ’s seniority , as players can easily construct novel “ cut ” to partake in with each other online . A hub world also help tie the levels together and let actor interact with the game ’s many incomprehensible but very cute bear .

Disney: Spellstruck

I did n’t get a chance to try on this one personally , but Walter Elias Disney : Spellstruck is a crossword - vogue plot in the venous blood vessel of Scrabble , where players serve Disney characters who have been corrupted by a Stitch - like imp named Blank . Players can amass and act as their favorite Disney and Pixar characters in a campaign of snack - sized puzzle challenge , a more traditional full control panel , and a versus mode that countenance them play with friends and family .
