Grindstone Gets A Lot Of New Content In Surprise Update

Grindstone, the Apple Arcade exclusive from developer Capybara Games, has received a surprise update that adds a lot of new content to the color-matching puzzler.

Since launch, Grindstone has only received small content updates, mostly to celebrate seasonal events. Today, however, you can look forward to 15 new levels, a new enemy that eats other creeps and steals their colors, and three new weapons to purchase. The update is live now and available as long as you're still subscribed to Apple Arcade.

Grindstone launched with Apple Arcade last year, and remains one of the best games on the service. There's still no way to purchase it outright in case it's the only reason you're still subscribed, but a whole new world of levels is a good reason to keep the subscription going for at least one more month.

Grindstone is great at exposing your greed, tempting you to stay within a level as long as you can to reap more rewards before moving on. It's also comically violent, although you can tone that down if you like. Seeing enemies explode into little colorful cubes never gets old though.
