Apple this week added futuristic trash cleanup game "Scrappers" to its Apple Arcade subscription gaming service, making the game available across iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Mac.

In Scrappers, up to 4 players can team up to clean up the streets of a futuristic city teeming with garbage -- and trash anyone who gets in their way!

You take on the role of the Scrappers, a squad of robot garbage collectors working to clean up a grimy city of the not-so-distant future. Time is money in Junktown, and team tactics like stacking trash and passing it to teammates -- much like in basketball -- can boost your efficiency for bigger rewards!

But garbage collection is only part of the job. Rival teams will attack and interfere, and it’s up to you to dispose of them while staying on schedule!

Teamwork is key to maximizing efficiency and achieving high scores, which in turn unlocks new characters and customization options!

"Scrappers" can be found in the App Store for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV, as well as the Mac App Store, and is available to all Apple Arcade subscribers. The service provides iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Mac users with access to over 100 games with no in-app purchases or ads for $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year.

Not a great one. Story line was pretty dumb, and the game controls were terrible.

Played there tutorial. Seems pretty awesome to me, a lot of style. Can't wait to jump in with some 4 player.
same here, had a blast with my girlfriend with this gorgeous beat um up on Apple Arcade on Apple TV , she being the tank as a punching bag and I just shoot cannon launcher as range attack lol ..

this game would have been so much more fun with a chaotic 4 players multiplayer sadly I haven't able to start a matchmaking with four others yet, Imma try with my brother and his girlfriend !
