What’s New on Apple Arcade?

1. What The Clash? by Triband

Get ready for unpredictable, laugh-out-loud fun. This offbeat multiplayer game throws players into a mashup of mini-games like table tennis, archery, and even… milking a fish. With bizarre challenges and wildcard modifiers, no two rounds are the same. You’ll play as a two-legged hand—yes, a hand—that can wear everything from dresses to eyepatches. Silly? Absolutely. Strategic? Surprisingly, yes.

2. My Buddy by Neilo Inc.
