Hello everyone, and welcome to the week! It’s time once again for our look back at the noteworthy updates of the last seven days. Lots of my favorites got updates this week, along with some games that are not so much my favorites. As a fun game, try to guess which are which. Either way, it’s a solid list this time. Of course, you can keep an eye out for updates yourself by participating in the TouchArcade forums. This weekly summary is just here to fill you in on the things you might have missed. Let’s go for it!
Teeny Tiny Town, Free I feel like getting the award out of the way early this week, so I’ll give this update the coveted UMMSotW prize. Teeny Tiny Town is celebrating its anniversary, and it’s introducing a cool new sci-fi theme as a little treat. It costs $1.99, so consider it a present to the developer that also gives you something. Like one of those boss candy bags they used to hand out at birthdays when I was a kid. The presentation has also gotten some nice improvements, and you might see cars or sheep meandering around now. Sheep? That’s the award right there.
Suika Game-Aladdin X, $2.99 Suika Game has an update! It’s bringing an event into the game, but don’t expect it to be a fancy thing. For the month of July (well, until July 27th), the Summer Harvest Festival skin will be available. Just hit the button on the title screen and you’re all set. Other than that, this update also allows you to choose whether or not Poppy loops around when you go towards the edge of the jar. Hey, it’ll do.
Jetpack Joyride, Free Betty Beefpies? Apparently that’s the new skin for the game. Professor Brains is hot on your tail, so you’ll have to do some serious jetpacking… jetpack joyriding? Push screen good. If push screen good maybe new skin get. Maybe not. Shaun tired and needs tooth extracted. Moving on to next game now, after perhaps dragging this paragraph out a bit longer so the formatting doesn’t break.
Hello Kitty Island Adventure, Well, this game has now been out long enough for an event to return. The Sunshine Celebration is back, and not only are the classic rewards making a return but also a bunch of new ones will be on offer. Collect lemons for lemonade and get some cool citrus-themed goodies. There are also some new horse avatars for people who want to horse around, plus some new music players, stories, visitors, and more. This is one mighty big update with a whole lot in it to play around with. So, you know… go. Play.
MARVEL SNAP, Free Aside from the usual routine of OTA updates, Marvel Snap got a proper update last week to set up the deck chairs for the July Deadpool celebration that will kick in after we get the Eternals to leave. The new season’s title is Maximum Effort, and that sounds compelling. The new cards will apparently include Gwenpool, Hydra Bob, Ajax, Copycat, and Cassandra Nova. The new locations are the Taco Truck and the Weapon X Facility. The details? I’ll let you know when I know! Also, a new game mode will be part of the festivities, and it’s called Deadpool’s Diner. Nifty. Looking forward to finding out what all of this means at the end of this week.
Angry Birds Reloaded, Summer updates are all the rage right now, and Angry Birds Reloaded is going to take its piece of that pie. Midsummer Mayhem 2 is here, with thirty sunny levels to play and a new bird in the form of Tony. Apparently he’s gone on a fishing trip that the pigs have spoiled somehow, perhaps by existing. We know the birds won’t be putting up with that nonsense. There’s a new boss level to tackle, too. I mean, if you already have Apple Arcade, you might as well. Nobody really hates Angry Birds, do they? This is my new idea for promoting engagement in the comments. If you say “nobody does X" then people will post. Unless no one reads it, which would be a chilling realization.
Disney Dreamlight Valley, The Dreamlight Valley has a new Realm to explore. Mulan and Mushu are joining the neighborhood, and you’ll have to help Mushu around the Training Camp while sharpening your skills with Mulan in order to test your might. Let’s get down to business! Who is that girl I see? A girl worth fighting for! True to your heart! You must be true to your heart! Are those all the songs? I haven’t seen Mulan in a while. I should watch it again. I know it has its issues and isn’t considered one of the best Disney movies or anything, but it’s fun. Anyway, this game. Mulan and Mushu. Isn’t that lovely?
Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop, Did I talk last time about how the title of this game tries to combine two of the names this series has been localized under? Well, I just did. This update adds the new Chain Simulator mode that allows you to practice making chains by arranging the Puyos as you like. Six new character episodes have been added to Adventure Mode, and as you clear each one you’ll unlock that character for the playable roster. Finally, six new music tracks from past Puyo games have been added to the shop. Oh, and some little bug fixes. As a little bonus, for being good children.
Brawl Stars, Free Alright, let’s look in on this one. Not directly. That’s dangerous. At any rate, the new Classic Brawl event is here, and there are some new Brawlers joining the bunch as usual. Berry and Clancy. I don’t know who they are, but they’re new. Let’s see… new Hypercharges, some Brawl Pass Seasons, some new seasonal game modes, some reworks of existing characters, and some other bits and bobs. I could look in closer on this, but I’m hungry. I’m sure the fans of this game are all up on it already. Those who don’t know can enjoy the fun exercise of imagining what Clancy might look like.
Royal Match, Free As we often do, let’s end with the obligatory free-to-play matching puzzle game update for the week. You get one hundred new levels to play, and this time the new area is the Air Festival, and I hope they drop that idiot King Robert out of a plane without a parachute. I hate him so much, it’s unreal. New event too, with some challenges and rewards. You know, as events do in this kind of thing. King Robert, go melt in paint thinner like the Judge in Roger Rabbit.
That about wraps it up for last week’s significant updates. I’m sure I’ve missed some, though, so please feel free to comment below and let everyone know if you think something should be mentioned. As usual, major updates will likely get their own news stories throughout this week, and I’ll be back next Monday to summarize and fill in the blanks. Have a great week!
