IMO it's shockingly good. Because there's no ads or IAP, the games optimize for fun or story, and not addictiveness. It has a large and varied catalog, but a high quality bar. I have never tried an Apple Arcade game and thought it was junk. Instead I've found some real gems: Assemble with Care, Card of Darkness, others

Did they end up adding anything that would be interesting for a "gamer"? I checked the launch lineup and they were mostly casual stuff.

Anything more complex now?

Yeah, it's casual, more for the Nintendo Switch crowd than Xbox. If you're into AAA games, then Apple Arcade doesn't have much to offer.

Oh it's worse. I'm an old PC gamer. Even the current AAA titles feel dumbed down :)
