Spades: Card Game+ in Apple Arcade

Octodad: Dadliest Catch+ is pure, unadulterated joy. It's a comedy of errors where the 'bad' controls are actually the best part of the game. Trying to walk across a room becomes a high-stakes balancing act that usually ends with you accidentally kicking a lawn gnome into the neighbor's yard. It’s rare for a game to make me laugh out loud, but Octodad manages it every five minutes.

Beneath the goofy physics, there’s a surprisingly sweet story about trying to fit in and the lengths a father will go to for his family. The touch controls are surprisingly well-adapted, though playing with a controller or in co-op mode is where the real chaos shines. It’s not a particularly long game, but the 'Shorts' levels provide some great extra content. If you're looking for something that doesn't take itself seriously and offers a genuine challenge of coordination, this is a must-play. Just try not to get ink on the rug.
