EDIT: added 4th and 5th questions
I have complimentary 3 months of Apple Arcade via purchase of a new iPad. In order to get the most out of it, I'd like to get some answers to the following Q's below...
1) Is there a list of games that are exclusive to Apple Arcade?
Only one I know of is Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls. I'd like to focus on exclusive games while I'm on AA.
2) Any games to recommend that weren't popular/mainstream?
I've already played stuff like Cut The Rope 1 & 2. I'll go see if there are any Angry Bird variations here (since AA doesn't do adds nor IAP in this format, should make playing these here a far better experience). Some of the other ones would be nice to check out while I'm here.
3) Longer games that can be finished within a few weeks?
Dunno if I'll continue AA after my complimentary offering, so I don't want to bother with games that can go on for months and months on end.
4) If I quit my subscription, will my game progress be saved (if so, is it saved server side or on-device)? Or will all progress be deleted? I may want to pause for some time and pick off where I left off.
5) Do games work offline? Ofc., I expect to require internet access to download games, update them, and to use online features (like accessing leaderboards on their site, or actual multiplayer games)
