Arcane Golf is, unsurprisingly, a new golf game from developer Clickteam LLC. Plus, as the name also suggests, there's magic involved with the game taking place in a retro-styled fantasy world. We can likely expect something a little different from the usual 2D mini-golfing game then.

Arcane Golf is made up of 200 different levels that take place across four courses that draw inspiration for their looks from classic adventure games. This also has an impact on the mechanics too, with enchanted gems that can teleport the ball somewhere new or hungry slimes that will gobble it up whole, allowing you to choose a new direction to travel in.

Konami Digital Entertainment has announced today that their Apple Arcade title Frogger in Toy Town has been updated to introduce a new ranked Endurance Mode. This new game variant's arrival is also accompanied by a few other changes.

The aim will be to see how high you can reach on the leaderboards, with the ultimate goal being to claim that top spot. There are three courses this mode can be played on which are Toy Town Course, Midnight Course and Party Course.
