Hello everyone, and welcome to our weekly roundup! It's time to dive into the exciting updates from the past seven days. This week, Shaun couldn't resist including more than one free-to-play matching puzzle game update, but don't worry, we've got some fantastic updates to share as well. And, of course, you can catch Shaun taking on King Robert, a spectacle we all enjoy. Remember, you can stay updated by joining the discussions on the TouchArcade forums. This summary is here to highlight what you might have missed, so let's get started!

Peglin, Free

This week, I'm thrilled to award the coveted UMMSotW to Peglin. The 1.0 update brings exciting new content, including the ability to challenge up to level 20 in Cruciball, a new Slime Hive mini-boss, and a plethora of tweaks, bug fixes, balance adjustments, and other enhancements. While Peglin didn't necessarily need an update, I'm more than happy to see these improvements.

Brawl Stars, Free

It's Brawl Stars time! Get ready for a thrilling update featuring a new SpongeBob event, which is sure to excite fans. Two new Brawlers, Moe (Mythic) and Kenji (Legendary), are joining the fray, along with new Hypercharges for various characters. These updates will roll out over the next few months, with the SpongeBob event kicking off soon.

stitch.,

The latest update for the soothing and satisfying stitch brings more Hoops to play, this time with a martial arts theme. While the theme might not be the main attraction, the addition of new puzzles is always welcome. Update your app and enjoy the new Hoops for a relaxing experience.

Genshin Impact, Free

Genshin Impact introduces the new region of Natlan along with three new characters: Mualani, Kinich, and Kachina. New weapons, events, stories, and artifacts are also part of this update. While it's a bit larger than usual, it follows the familiar pattern of Genshin Impact updates that regular players have come to expect.

Temple Run: Puzzle Adventure,

For fans of matching puzzle games, Temple Run: Puzzle Adventure on Apple Arcade offers one hundred new levels to explore. The tournaments have also been refreshed, providing plenty of content to keep players engaged until the next update.

Jetpack Joyride 2,

In a special update for Jetpack Joyride 2 on Apple Arcade, Barry Steakfries ventures into the uncorrupted realm of SPACE! This update is a nod to the classic reference, and while I'd love to leave it at that, I'll keep the formatting intact. A shoutout to the legendary Tim Curry, whose performances continue to inspire us.

Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop,

Another matching puzzle game update comes with Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop. This classic game introduces new character episodes for Sig, Carbuncle, and Rafisol in Adventure Mode, along with Meena as a playable character. Seven new music tracks are available in the shop, and bug fixes round out the update.

Hearthstone, Free

Hearthstone introduces Battlegrounds Season 8, Trinkets & Travels, featuring the new Trinket Shop. Players can now buy Trinkets with Gold twice per game, which will impact the rest of the match. This update brings the usual array of new content that Hearthstone fans have come to enjoy.

Toon Blast, Free

Toon Blast brings a new episode with fifty levels, centered around bees and happiness. While bees can be a bit scary, they're essential to our ecosystem, and this update celebrates their role in a fun way.

Royal Match, Free

The debate continues: should King Robert perish permanently or return in a cycle of endless defeat? This update adds one hundred new levels and a new jousting arena, offering fresh challenges. And let's not forget the amusing ad where King Robert replaces the freezing pregnant lady, a humorous twist on a familiar scene.

That wraps up our look at last week's significant updates. If I've missed anything, please share in the comments below. Major updates will be covered in separate news stories throughout the week, and I'll be back next Monday to summarize and fill in any gaps. Have a great week!
