What Arcade means on this atlas

On Calumma’s desk, Arcade is not a store tab I can filter. It is a reading stance: short readable loops, public listings, stills that still look like action or idle spectacle. Sky Force and Chicken Invaders Universe are the obvious members. Moorhuhn Invasion is a ninety-second salvo. Raid Rush and Rush Defense are defense cards that still sell a rush. Icebreaker Fishing is the odd floe — idle ice, 4+ — kept so the atlas does not pretend every Arcade night is a gun.

What a good entry looks like here

A name the store actually uses. A developer line. An icon and a still from the listing. Age and advisories printed, not inferred. A price model the card states (here: free with in-app purchases on all six). A date I can write under the facts. A review long enough that the rank is not a caption.

What does not get in

Guessed downloads. “Best Arcade 2026”. Hosted HTML5 stand-ins. Gambling language. A seventh tower card that would only thicken rank 3–5.
