Apple News+ adds a new game that uses emoji and Genmoji to sovle puzzles


Released to coincide with World Emoji Day, the new Emoji Game is part logic, part word game that's inspired by how we use emojis to communicate.

Bundling games with other services has proven a successful strategy to attract users and keep them engaged, as The New York Times and even LinkedIn have discovered. In this daily game, players try to solve phrases using emojis with the goal of completing the puzzle in the least number of moves possible. To make the game more Apple-specific, it also leverages the recently introduced Genmoji, or the custom emojis that are created using Apple Intelligence, the company’s AI.
