With the Apple Arcade membership service, users may now access a fantastic selection of 12 new spatial games. The Well-known favorites include Jetpack Joyride 2, Super Fruit Ninja, LEGO Builder’s Journey, Bloons TD 6+, Cut the Rope 3, Game Room, Illustrated, Synth Riders, Patterned, What the Golf?, and Wylde Flowers are just a few of the exciting games included in the lineup. Games like Alto’s Odyssey: The Lost City, Spire blast and more highly anticipated games are currently under development according to Apple, hinting at its growing library of spatial games.
As Apple’s enthusiasm to release additional material for the Vision Pro remains to be on the rise, many users of the headset took to social media that they are returning it within the company’s 14-day return window, due to headaches and triggers of motion sickness. While the primary reason is the weight of the headset that weighs upto 650 grams with an additional 353g cable-connected battery, the other problem is that most of its features are front-loaded, without striking a balance to the user. Although Apple’s Vision Pro headset boasts outstanding functionality, there are still a number of places where it is lacks behind.
