Apple Arcade - Cardpocalypse (2019) [/] This is a kids-based light RPG with Hearthstone-like card battles. You are the new kid at school. Interact with other kids and accomplish quests. But mostly interact with other kids to play Mega Mutant Power Pets which is a medium-complexity card battle game. You have hero cards, can build 20-card decks, can trade cards with other kids. Different kids have different decks and styles so can strategize to beat them. Unfortunately the whole building decks and trading cards is what I don't like about Magic The Gathering and Hearthstone.
Apple Arcade - Lifeslide (2019) [/] You are a paper plane flying down a valley. Pick up yellow gems to get more time (you start with 100 seconds) and blue gems to buy upgrades. Pick up power ups such as red gem to heal or green gem for speed boost. Pick up keys to unlock buildings which have combined yellow/blue gem trails. Pick up airplane parts to unlock new planes. Nice soothing music and controller support makes for a rather zen-like game.
Urban Momo, San Mateo - Bhuteko Bhat Chicken ($13.50) [/] Nepalese chicken fried rice. Pretty much like other fried rices with a bit of long-sliced onion (i.e. not finely chopped).
