Fruit Mountain is a cozy puzzle game for the Nintendo Switch. It involves merging smaller fruit to create bigger fruit until they no longer fit in the play area, all while chasing the highest score. Sound familiar? Yep, it’s the same premise we know and love from other games like Fruit Merge and Suika Game. Thankfully, Fruit Mountain puts its own spin on the formula to create a fun outing in its own right.

Industry analyst Mat Piscatella has predicted that PlayStation has one more generation of physical media support, while Nintendo possibly has two. The Executive Director and Video Game Industry Advisor at Circana (NPD) commented on a statement from Josh Fairhurst, CEO at Limited Run Games. The latter reminded fans of Tomb Raider I-III Remastered that the game’s Xbox version is not planned for release at traditional retail, and the Collector’s Edition is their only chance to get a physical version for the platform. Piscatella stated that gaming audiences should probably get used to there being no physical Xbox versions of games across the market sooner rather than later.

Apple Passwords packs all the essentials, and sports a clean design, but can it replace your password manager?. “Sherlocked” is a term often bandied about for third-party apps killed by Apple when it introduces new OS features that overlap with or completely overshadow the apps that preceded them. While there were plenty of instances of Sherlocking at Apple’s Worldwide Developer Conference 2024 (WWDC), the long-rumored introduction of a new password manager app for iOS 18 was one of the most obvious examples. To make matters worse for rival services, though, Apple is making the Passwords app available across iPhones, Macs, iPads, and Windows, making it a true cross-platform play.

Apple Passwords is great, but I'm sticking with other password managers for now

At this year’s Config conference, web interface design app Figma unveiled a major redesign and a suite of new AI-powered tools to simplify and accelerate design workflows. This marks Figma’s third major overhaul, introducing a new visual style with rounded corners, an updated toolbar, and 200 new icons. Figma’s foray into AI brings Figma-specific tolls akin to other apps’ “draft an email” features. These AI capabilities aim to streamline everyday tasks, such as an “AI-enhanced” asset search and auto-generated text replacing the standard Lorem ipsum placeholder.

Figma just embraced AI in a big way
