And a "Where's Waldo" like game also released.

It is no shock that Netflix has been trying to grow its roots in the gaming industry. It’s relatively new, but it continues to explore the gaming market and has plans to establish itself in gaming. This week Netflix‘s roots have spread further into the gaming verse and released two new titles. Their emergence in the gaming market is showing no indication of decline.

This week, the stream library has unveiled two new titles. The card roguelike Arcanium: Rise of Akhan is the headliner and the casual project Krispee Street. Both games are available to download on iOS and Android without spending a dime if you’re a Netflix subscriber.

Hearthstone Like Roguelike

Arcanium: Rise of Akhan is a Hearthstone-styled roguelike experience. It was released back on Steam in 2020 that has been added to the stream library. It currently upholds a “mostly positive” rating on SteamArcanium made few innovations in its genre. Even though it’s a single-player game, it included elements of open-world and roguelike, also including genres of adventure and strategy. Its Steam listing recounts it as an “open-world, single-player strategy card adventure” and blend of the roguelike and deckbuilding genres.

Casual Find Object Adventure

On the other hand, Netflix also released a casual project. It can be defined as a “casual, find the hidden object game”. Krispee Street is a game where you have to find the object. It is a digital version of the webcomic Krispee. This game is almost like an alternate digital version of “Where’s Waldo”. Developed by FrostyPops, this project is a feel-good item hunt experience. What’s On Netflix states that it’s the fourth game from developer FrostyPop to come out on Netflix since the service’s official debut last November.
