Hello everyone, and welcome to the week! It’s time once again for our look back at the noteworthy updates of the last seven days. Another week in this awkward between-holiday period, and another eclectic mix of games to look through. Lots of anniversary updates recently, at least. Anyway, it’s enough of a list to get you through your coffee break, and that’s what it has to do. Of course, you can keep an eye out for updates yourself by participating in the TouchArcade forums. This weekly summary is just here to fill you in on the things you might have missed. Let’s go for it!
Hello Kitty Island Adventure,
Kitty time? Kitty time. Kuromi-chan is in the icon now, so that’s already a win. If you like taking pictures, you’ll appreciate the new Photo Op spots in each region. Invite the other characters in and get some nice group shots. There’s a new Creation Station that allows you to create even more goodies via crafting, and some cool new face and back accessories.

Zookeeper World,
Phew, in hindsight I probably should have written about this one before Simon’s Cat. After seeing that update drop its whopping two hundred and fifty levels, this game’s mere twelve probably isn’t going to win many fans. But that’s the size of it, I’m afraid. Twelve new levels, and they won’t be available for a couple of weeks yet. I don’t even see any bug fixes and performance improvements in here. Why did I include it? Too late now. I’ll have to live with my regrets on this one.
Castle Crumble,
Okay, this one is probably safer. Let’s have a look and see what’s what in the world of Castle Crumble. Oh, now see, this one is benefiting from direct comparison to the previous entry. This new update adds the Amber Hills Kingdom with forty new levels to play, a new challenge, and a new conquest. This one has some bug fixes and improvements, so I think we can all agree that the proper work h
