amc Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 My free month just ended and I've decided to keep subbing. Really nice curation of games and I'd only managed to play a few during my trial. Just noticed the conversation above about controllers and although I have myriad options I've been connecting my 8Bit Do SN30 Pro exclusively. Works a charm. Will deffo give that Skate game above a go now. Link to post Share on other sites
Jonny5 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Is this still being updated with new games? Seems to have gone rather quiet in here. Link to post Share on other sites
BedroomBusinessman Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 It’s been about one a week since launch I think. Personally I haven’t really touched it since finishing Grindstone. Link to post Share on other sites

I do think it’s a good service and it’s a shame it does not seem to have gotten much traction. They’re offering 3 months with every new iPhone now and there’s that big hitter that’s day and date release with PS5 (can’t remember the name) so they’re clearly hoping people start using it. I would say it’s had 5-6 really good games and 20+ good ones. With a bunch of other stuff that may be your thing. For a fiver a month I’m happy to carry on subbing. I think for a lot of gamers they just don’t like playing games on their phone any more. Though saying that I’ve been enjoying playing some on my Mac as well like beyond a steel sky and tangle towers. They’re great on the bigger screen in full res. Link to post Share on other sites
gospvg Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Yep I have given up playing games on my phone. I used to have a few installed like Mini Metro, Clash Royale & Lost Cities but all have been deleted now. Just play on the iPad now. Link to post Share on other sites

Quest Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I got three months of this for free. What's worth a try? So far I've downloaded What the Golf? and Grindstone. Link to post Share on other sites

Count Buffalos Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I say this every time, but Hot Lava is great as long as you use a controller. Link to post Share on other sites
ZOK Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Yes Pinball Wizard is initially compelling, but then just annoying I found. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
jonathanhoey Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Sociable Soccer is really good if you liked Sensible World of Soccer, as it's by Jon Hare and is essentially a modern version of the same game without the licence. I've only played it with a DualShock 4. I don't expect it's any fun at all with touchscreen controls. Link to post Share on other sites

Shinsekai, a great underwater Metroidvania by Capcom. It’s been out on other things since, but Apple Arcade via Apple TV with a DualShock 4 was how I played (and loved) it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Calashnikov Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 It’s got very strong 70s prog stoner French animation sci-fi vibes which are obviously quite rare and fucking excellent qualities. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

It’s helpful to know the game isn’t broken – it must be an issue with Game Center/Save files. I’ll see if there’s a way to delete/reset it somehow. Edit: The game boots in Airplane mode, so it’s a save file thing. I tried booting the game on my MacBook with WiFi off and it also loaded. As soon as I switched the WiFi on, it crashed. :| Link to post Share on other sites
