Apple Arcade games won't work when Sideloaded

I am unable to play most of Apple Arcade games, I've tried cracked IPAs from several sources, like iOSGods bot posts (Links in parenthesis) and iPhonecake, but games like Fruit Ninja Classic+ (https://iosgods.com/topic/147767-fruit-ninja-classic) and Jetpack Joyride+ (https://iosgods.com/topic/147766-jetpack-joyride) crash on the loading screen after the Apple Arcade / Halfbrick logo.

 

I tried launching offline and online and to understand the crash logs, but I don't know how to debug this. I am signing with the same bundle ID and notification entitlements using a paid signing service, I am doing something wrong?

Do anyone have a solution, or steps I can make to understand why this is happening, like debugging? I can send the crash logs if you need.

Thank you very much, I hope there’s a way to solve this, it would be great to play all Apple Arcade games for free!

 If there’s any way I can help, I will gladly do so, but I’m not a developer so maybe I can do testing.

Hey @Saurik Tech!

Happy to notify you that we've managed to solve the issue thanks to @Laxus!

You can verify this by downloading Sneaky Sasquatch Apple Arcade IPA and testing to see if it works on your end.

The mentioned Fruit Ninja Classic+ & Jetpack Joyride+ will be gradually updated with the solution so keep an eye out for those. :)

Awesome, is this a patch? How could you fix this?

I also faced similar issues with some apps like Reddit or NordVPN, they crash instantly when sideloaded, do you know why this happens?

 

Thank you for your work

Thank you for your work

Perhaps you can try the new Sideload Spoofer feature in Sideloadly for those.

Yes, that was my first idea lately, but it doesn’t solve this instant crashes unfortunately.

Instant crashes on launch? Or when?

Yes, on launch, there are a lot of apps with this problem when sideloaded even without any tweaks injected, Reddit is an example.

We can try and investigate those, but for now Apple Arcade apps have been resolved. :)
