Apple Arcade Adds Five New Games on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV as 'LEGO Brawls' Expands to Mac
Apple Arcade has received another weekly refresh, with five more games added to the service across iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.
The new titles include neo-classic side-scrolling action platformer "Fallen Knight" by FairPlay Studios, barnyard game "Hogwash" by Bossa Studios, the hypnotic getaway "Lifelike: Chapter One" by Kunabi Brother, puzzler "Tales of Memo" by Tendays Studio, and roleplaying folktale "Yaga" by Versus Evil.
"Hogwash," "Tales of Memo," and "Yaga" have also been added to Apple Arcade on the Mac, while "ChuChu Rocket! Universe" and "LEGO Brawls" have been extended to the Mac after debuting on iOS last month.
Apple Arcade now has 89 games available for iOS and tvOS, and 81 on macOS, as Apple closes in on its promise of over 100 games.
Apple Arcade is Apple's new subscription-based gaming service, providing iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Mac users with access to dozens of premium games for $4.99 per month, with no in-app purchases or ads. The service launched in late September with a one-month free trial available.

Personally I’m a big fan of Apple Arcade. The fact that you can’t have any ads, any in app purchases, or any pay/wait to win mechanics at all means it’s always worth checking out games there and the only cost is the 10 minutes you take to get it out. Their only way to bring you back is simply by having a good game.
I also have family sharing so my subscription filters down to everybody else and they play a lot more than I do. There are all sorts of other games they play. It’s only ever going to get better as well. Already the quality is reassuring because they’re not trying to wring the mechanics for IAPs.
I even find myself playing a few games now and then to pass the time.
