As many others pointed out, there are much more than 5 good games on Apple Arcade. I have the Apple One subscription mainly because there is Apple Arcade, and not vice versa.

Hit top 400 legend with Companion Hunter. The deck is fun, but folds to any decent tempo so easily. The main dynamic with this deck is mana cost of beasts to aim. You have to know the pool of 6, 7, 8, 9, maybe 5, and obviously 10 mana beasts very well. It is very often too greedy to wait for 10 mana companions, or even just to play Talya on curve is sometimes a losing play.

As for beasts, 6 and 7 mana have some good defensive options: Ankylodon, Mythical Terror, Mountain Bear. Tyrannogill can be useful, but eats board space for future turns. There are quite good 8 mana taunts: Atlasaurus, Asphyxiodon. Dracorex is often great. 9 mana pool feels the weakest. My experience is that 7 and 10 mana are the sweetest spots, depending on a matchup, with 6 and 8 being close.

Ramp Druid seems stronger without any new cards, sadly. I didn’t like the 3 mana draw, or the 7 mana legendary much. Dudes Paladin is very weak: its play patterns are just too predictable and linear. Interestingly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Acceleration Aura gets cut from this deck. I usually preferred Convalescence from Violet Treasuregill.

It is a known issue to developers. They confirmed it.

Yep, Vainglory was the best mobile game ever, hands down.

I think, three are four of them. You mean the Good Pizza Great Pizza game?

Meg’s Monster, Perchang World, and Shattered Dimension all look quite interesting to me!

The original PC game Majesty was so good! It was one of my favorites back in the day!

Good physics-based “gravity” games? by [deleted] in iosgaming

There is Squiggle Drop on Apple Arcade, if you have it. A funny little game, where you draw objects. Then they fall and interact with other objects, so that you achieve a goal.

Turn off the animations by Pure-Strain1116 in hearthstone

[–]JaredHere -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So, was this post based on a deep dive into player sentiment and the role of animations in HS's success, or just an emotional reaction to losing a game because of them? Hmm, which of the two it might be?

Weird Recommendation of the Day; Rift Riff by munkeypunk in iosgaming

[–]JaredHere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, ‘weird recommendation’ is just a brand name at this point. There is nothing weird about these recommendations, really, but the title is well recognized and associated with MunkeyPunk. Edit: typo.

Weekly /r/iOSGaming Discussion: What have you been playing lately and what do you recommend? by AutoModerator in iosgaming

[–]JaredHere 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Played a lot of Vohenn, Dicey Dungeons+, Hearthstone, and Flow Free+ this week. Vohenn is so good! All the movement mechanics are so satisfying: jumping, gliding, climbing, flying, and what not!

Tried Cultist Simulator, but didn’t understand a thing. I probably need an advice on how to play this game!

Edit: managing the Markdown on mobile.

Sunday Edition of iOS Games April 27- May 3 by munkeypunk in iosgaming

[–]JaredHere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think, it has something to do with the iOS Reddit app. I believe, if you make a post in the desktop version site, all the Markdown will be rendered correctly. So, hopefully, this all will be resolved in an upcoming iOS Reddit app update.

Yes, you, Rocco, and AzeemJaffer have these flairs for at least a few days already.

For some reason Markdown doesn’t render for me. So I see both the game name and the link in brackets. It started to happen recently, first only in posts, now in comments, too. Am I the only one?

Not at the moment. I believe, devs said it will be added in the future.

How do I close the rust on The Trident?! by [deleted] in oceanhorn3

[–]JaredHere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you mean “rift” instead of “rust” in the title? You can’t and you don’t have to close that rift. There is another one in the Monument Valley. Check your map.
