Sushi for Robots
Developer: Ludipe & Friends
In this puzzle game, a host of robots have an insatiable hunger for sushi. You’ve got to get the right sushi to the right robotic customer by placing the stickers next to the correct dishes. How do these robots process the sushi, you ask? It’s not known, but I like to think the magical flavors of sushi transcend the laws of physics and robotics.
ExZeus: The Complete Collection
Developer: HyperDevbox Japan, Sickhead Games
Earth is being invaded by hostile aliens, and their goal is to wipe out all traces of our civilization. But not if Project ExZeus can stop them. Take control of four different robots and use their strengths to repel the waves of enemies and save the world in this arcade-style rail shooter. This collection includes both ExZeus and ExZeus 2, so you can enjoy both titles.

Crunchyroll launched Crunchyroll Game Vault in November as an additional perk for the service’s Mega and Ultimate subscription members. The service offered members five games at launch, like the fighting game River City Girls and the puzzle game Inbento, and it’s added more since then, including Hime’s Quest and Ponpu.
“We will work with developers to bring more games to mobile for the first time and bring new features to existing hits,” Crunchyroll’s executive vice president of emerging business and general manager of Crunchyroll Games, Terry Li, said in an email in January.
Crunchyroll is the latest video streaming service to offer games with a subscription. Notably, Netflix began offering games to its members in 2021. However, all Netflix subscribers can access the service’s games library, while only the top two Cruchyroll subscription plans — Mega and Ultimate, but not Fan — offer access to Crunchyroll Game Vault.
For more gaming news, here are other titles Crunchyroll has added to Game Vault and the latest Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Apple Arcade titles.
