    Downloaded a bunch of the old GameClub titles less than 100mb (no WiFi connection) that I previously purchased onto my phone. Game Center does not pop up, but it shows the icon in the Game Description. The GameClub icon appears, but no Game Center. Can anybody shed light on this? It won’t effect whether or not I buy the subscription, but just curious.

    There's bound to be some situations like that trying to restore old purchases. From what I understand is that if you contact GameClub and can show you are an owner of the original games (not sure what that involves) then they can individually unlock those specific games for you manually.

    I’m not totally sure if my games are unlocking or not. All of the games I have downloaded seem to work fine when I close the GameClub subscription screen. But I don’t think I had Vectrex purchased and it also seems to work doing that.

    Man...is it possible to bring back Dungeon Raid? I would happily subscribe just for this one game to be available again:D

    If I remember correctly Mini Squadron is one of those games that had multiple versions, but hit up this link and let them know your problems and they should be able to help: https://gameclub-inc.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035059272-Unlock-a-previously-purchased-game

    Do we post any bugs/issues here, or should we find the original game threads?

    I had this issue for a game. I realized that I had purchased the game under my old Apple ID. I sent that info to GC and it was fixed, the next time I logged into the game, I got a message in the upper right hand corner that said this game had been fully unlocked. Same with some others, somehow they have my old Apple ID now so I'm not having problems. I want to subscribe, but for now, most of the games that I want that they have I already purchased. So I'm waiting for new submissions.

    I’ve bought most of the games back in the day but I’m subscribing just as a way of ‘thanks’ and so they can continue bringing old classics back to life. If it wasn’t for Gameclub then I wouldn’t be able to download these old games I used to own
