Apple Arcade revealed a couple of new games on the way as well as several updates that have been added to current titles. The two new games coming to the platform are Nuts, which is a new first-person puzzle game from Noodlecake Studios, and Spire Blast, which is a creative take on Match 3 where you color-match blocks to take down endless towers. You can read more about both below along with a list of updates being added to other games.

Coming Soon to Apple Arcade:

Spire Blast by Orbital Knight – Step into the colorful world of Spire Blast as players match colors to shoot and blast towers in this unique physics-based puzzler. They'll battle against an ever-hungry dragon to collapse numerous mysterious towers of all shapes and sizes that have risen up across the kingdom. But there's a twist; the blocks are influenced by gravity, so every move a player makes will collapse the tower in a variety of exciting ways. Link to assets here.

Nuts by Noodlecake Studios – As a rookie field researcher, players will gear up the caravan, boot up their GPS, spread out their map, and head for the depths of the enigmatic Melmoth Forest. Through a series of increasingly challenging missions that involve surveillance, timing, and logic, players are tasked with investigating the unusual activity of a society of squirrels by placing cameras during the day, and watching the footage at night, tracking their every movement. Where do they hide their nuts? What puzzling routes do they take? And why do they behave so strangely? While doing so, players will uncover a mystery. Could it be… that the squirrels are conspiring against them? Use photo and video cameras, motion sensors, thermal imaging, sound recorders, and other tools to figure out what they are up to.
