Apple is now hand-picking games in every genre
Trying to put us out of a job
Over in the US, Apple has ditched its automatically generated game pages on the App Store, in favour of lists that have been curated by Apple's editors.
If you go to the, say, adventure games section on the App Store in the UK you'll get a list of new (and updated) games in that genre, and some nebulous "what's hot" bit.
The quality of the games on these lists is, shall we say, mixed.
But go to that same section in the US and you'll see banners for games like Waking Mars and The Silent Age, and hand-picked selections of "Best New Games", "All-Time Greats", "Free Games", and premium games with no in-app purchases.
Techcrunch spotted the change, and 9 to 5 Mac learnt that Apple switched to the editorially curated lists for games subcategories on May 14th last month. Keep an eye out for the same thing happening in other territories.
