Apple is expanding its Apple Arcade puzzle game library with the addition of two new titles next month, as the subscription gaming service continues to grow its catalogue of premium, ad-free games.
From September 3, subscribers will be able to play Block Blast!+ and Art of Fauna: Cozy Puzzles+, bringing one of the world’s most popular mobile puzzle games and an award-winning indie title to the platform.
Developed by Hungry Studio, Block Blast!+ challenges players to strategically place blocks on a grid to clear rows and columns while building high-scoring combos. The Apple Arcade version offers the same addictive gameplay without advertisements, providing an uninterrupted gaming experience for subscribers.
Joining it is Art of Fauna: Cozy Puzzles+, developed by Klemens Strasser. The title, which won the 2025 App Store Award for Cultural Impact, blends relaxing jigsaw-style puzzles with educational storytelling about wildlife and conservation. Designed with accessibility in mind, the game aims to provide a calming experience while introducing players to nature-inspired artwork and environmental themes.
The new releases strengthen an already extensive puzzle collection on Apple Arcade, which includes titles such as Grindstone, Flow Free+, Crossword Jam+, Everyday Puzzles: Mini Games+ and Water Sort Puzzle: Get Color+.
Apple is also rolling out updates to several existing Arcade games this month. On August 12, puffies. receives 28 new puzzle packs, including collections featuring Oden Tomodachi and The Knights artwork. From August 20, Simon’s Cat – Blast Time adds 200 new levels, with 50 levels released each week over a month. Meanwhile, stitch. celebrates reaching 800 unique embroidery hoops on August 26 with a commemorative hoop and new achievement.
Beyond puzzle games, Apple Arcade’s September 3 update will introduce three additional titles. NFL Retro Bowl ’27 launches with a new Gauntlet Mode, while Coloring Games for Families+ offers more than 3,000 creative activities for players of all ages. Let’s Play! Oink Games+ rounds out the additions with a collection of nine digital tabletop games that can be played solo, with friends, or online.
The latest additions continue Apple’s strategy of expanding Apple Arcade with premium games free from ads and in-app purchases, offering subscribers a growing library spanning casual puzzles, sports, creativity and multiplayer experiences.
