Netflix Games has had a rocky nine months, with executive changes, cancelled projects and soon, the removal of games from both its mobile and TV libraries.
It was recently announced that 22 games - nearly 20 percent of Netflix's mobile game library - will be axed on July 15.
July 14 is subscribers' 'Last day to play'.
Hades, Monument Valley (all three titles), Carmen Sandiego, Ludo King and Rainbow Six: SMOL are among the most popular Netflix games set to be cancelled.
A full list is available below.
Some of these games are still fairly new - Carmen Sandiego, for example, only joined the platform in January.
Monument Valley 3 launched as a major Netflix exclusive, but is now set to move to other platforms.
Several planned game releases - including Crashlands 2, Tales of the Shire and Don't Starve Together - have also been scrapped.
The company first started adding video games to its catalogue of streaming TV shows and films in 2021.
Co-CEO Gregory Peters said in April that Netflix Games had made "decent progress" but remained on a "multiyear iterative journey".
Netflix reveal huge list of movies and TV shows being axed next month – with some children's favourites in the mix
It comes as the streaming giant has confirmed plans to launch an animated TV series based on two of the world's most popular video games.
Clash of Clans and Clash Royale have dominated iPhone and Android app stores for years - with over 65 million and 18 million monthly players respectively.
They will soon be transformed into a television show.
The series is in "early pre-production", but no release date has been given.
Supercell, the Finnish company behind the games, is directly involved in the production of the series.
But Clash is not the first animated series to land on Netflix.
The platform already hosts Arcane, based on Riot Games' smash hit League of Legends.
Other popular Netflix animations include Devil May Cry, Blue Eye Samurai, Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous and Sonic Prime.

Diddy's team slapped down by judge over bizarre Iran defense as monster trial nears verdict
Sean ' Diddy ' Combs' legal team was slapped down by the judge presiding over his trial because of their alleged attempt to use the escalating conflict with Iran in their upcoming closing argument. As the disgraced hip-hop mogul's bombshell sex trafficking trial nears a verdict, his team of attorneys reportedly planned on bringing up the escalating tensions between the US and Iran in court in a bid to relate it to his case, TMZ reported Monday. Sources told the outlet the 55-year-old's defense 'may invoke the recent conflict' in their closing argument, and specifically go after the Homeland Security Investigators who raided his home in the Holmby Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles in March. They were allegedly planning to say that the agents 'instigated' their client on his baby oil and lubricant use in the bedroom when they should really focus more on the conflict with Iran, the source noted. On Monday and day 28 of Combs' trial, Iran launched at least 10 missiles at US military bases in Qatar after Donald Trump bombed Iran's nuclear facilities Saturday. In response to reports of the defense's bizarre plan, prosecutor Maurene Comey told U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian 'I would object' if they chose to bring up politics, the 'propriety of this prosecution' and the use of government resources on Thursday - when closing arguments are set to begin. In reference to the possibility that the defense might try to relate Iran or any other current political affairs to Combs' trial, his lead attorney Marc Agnifilo said: 'Nothing to worry about, judge.' Combs' defense lasted just 23 minutes Tuesday after he officially confirmed he will not be testifying at the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Federal Courthouse in New York City. The three-time Grammy winner denies racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. Not only did Combs announce he will not testify, but he also took a moment to schmooze the judge as he did so. Agnifilo told the court they had 'discussed at length' the prospect of him giving evidence. Combs stood up in court as Judge Subramanian asked him: 'Mr Combs, how are you feeling today?' Speaking in a clear and confident voice, Combs said: 'I'm doing great. I wanted to tell you thank you, you're doing an excellent job.' Combs denied he had taken drugs in the last 48 hours and confirmed his mind was clear, adding he had spoken to his lawyers 'thoroughly' about testifying. As the judge tried to confirm Combs had made the decision by himself, Combs cut in and said: 'That is solely my decision. It's my decision with my lawyers'. Combs appeared at ease with his decision as he was seen smiling and hugging his lawyers afterward. He spoke briefly to a friend in the public gallery and appeared optimistic, saying: 'We'll see what happens.' The prosecution brought 34 witnesses to the stand over the span of the trial and portrayed Combs as the head of a 'criminal enterprise' which covered up his 'freak offs' with ex-girlfriends, where they were allegedly forced to have sex with male escorts while he watched. While his team wrapped up their defense quickly, prosecutors spent more than six weeks laying out their case against the embattled rapper. Earlier in the day, the final witness for the prosecution was Joseph Cerciello, a Special Agent with the US Department of Homeland Security Investigations. He walked the jury through summary charts showing text messages, hotel and flight reservations and financial records related to freak offs. Combs' lawyer Teny Geragos attempted to show that the charts were not exhaustive and missed out evidence that painted a different picture. The jury heard messages sent by Jane, one of Combs' ex-girlfriends who testified she was forced into freak offs out of fear he would stop paying her rent, from September 2021. In the messages Combs wrote: 'That s*** was so f****** sexy the other night damn.' The prosecution brought 34 witnesses to the stand over the span of the trial and portrayed Combs as the head of a 'criminal enterprise' which covered up his 'freak offs' with ex-girlfriends, where they were allegedly forced to have sex with male escorts while he watched Jane replied: 'I haven't stopped thinking about it… Did you love it baby?' Combs responded: 'Loved it' as Jane replied with a heart emoji. In her testimony Jane broke down in tears while claiming that Combs threatened to release the videos of the freak offs. But in texts from May 2023 she appeared to complain that he didn't record their sessions. Jane wrote: 'The last time at the London (hotel) when I was super hot and you were (multiple emojis). 'We didn't film, you forgot it, you promised you wouldn't' forget.' The jury was also shown more freak off videos - the fourth set they have seen. During this time, Combs was seen leaning over in his seat, nearly standing up, as the final video played. He was then spotted writing notes after looking over to the table in front of him where the clip played on the monitor. Jurors were told to turn down the volume on their headphones to stop the audio being picked up by the courtroom microphones, which the judge asked to be muted. The jury was dismissed Tuesday and are due back in court Thursday. Closing arguments are anticipated to take place both Thursday and Friday from 9am to 5pm. A charging conference, a meeting between the judge and the lawyers - usually held outside the presence of the jury - is taking place Wednesday starting at noon. During this time, they will discuss and finalize the jury instructions - the rules of law the jury must follow when deciding the case. Both sides will be able to propose instructions and object to others before the judge makes final decisions on what will be given to the jury. The racketeering and sex trafficking charges against Combs, who is currently locked up at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center, carry a minimum sentence of 15 years each. Transportation to engage in prostitution carries a maximum of 10 years behind bars.

Netflix fans only have days left to watch 'best ever' romcom

Inside Liver King's troubling multi-day pilgrimage to Texas to 'hunt' Joe Rogan
A disgraced influencer dubbed the 'Liver King' went on a manic multi-day social media spree as he traveled to Austin to hunt down Joe Rogan, where he was arrested for making 'terroristic threats' against the podcast megastar. The fitness influencer, real name Brian Johnson, was taken into custody on Tuesday night after sharing Instagram videos of himself continuously rambling about 'fighting' the Rogan. Johnson, 48, shared a slew of videos to his 2.9 million Instagram followers. He shot to fame in 2022 claiming his huge muscles were the result of a raw meat diet, before being exposed by Rogan as a steroid user. In the videos before his arrest, Johnson's apparent 'roid rage' was in full view. Johnson appeared to be talking to himself and pretending he was in conversation in some of the clips, including in one where he said to a seemingly empty room: 'I'm going to be right back, okay?' The fitness influencer also shared videos giving himself a 'coffee enema' in the shower, and in another showed a Joe Rogan branded box with a knife ominously perched on top. Johnson's hunt for Rogan appears to stem from his steroid scandal three years ago, as he blamed the podcaster for exacerbating his downfall after Rogan had criticized him for his dishonesty. The 'Liver King' began documenting his pilgrimage to Austin to find Rogan three days ago, saying in an Instagram video on Sunday that, 'If I could just get a formal invitation to the Joe Rogan podcast, I could release myself from leaving tomorrow.' The next day, Johnson shared another clip calling out Rogan to fight him, saying: 'Man to man, I'm picking a fight with you... I have no training in Jui Jitsu, you have a black belt, you should dismantle me.' Wearing a wolf's head hat, Johnson began dancing on camera with his shirt off, saying: 'That's pretty entertaining right?' 'You can't pick a fight with a real king and then expect there not to be an actual fight, bro,' he added. After sharing several more clips of himself aimlessly talking into the camera, Johnson shared another clip on Tuesday morning as he made his way to Austin. He showed himself holding the Joe Rogan podcast branded box with an axe on top, saying: 'You can't buy this kind of stuff, the serial numbers are not replicable.' Pointing his camera to the axe, he said: 'We come bearing gifts, for those that deserve it.' 'We'll see you soon,' he said as he addressed Rogan directly. 'Real tension I have with you, real f***ing beef.' Some of his Instagram videos in recent days received millions of views, with many fans expressing concern for Johnson in the comments and urging his family to check in on him. Speaking from a hotel room in Austin once he arrived in Rogan's hometown, Johnson claimed in an erratic shower video that he'd had a run in with police over his threats, and also showed himself giving himself a 'coffee enema.' 'I challenge you today, Joe Rogan,' he said. 'I'm here at the Four Seasons in Austin, I'm in the shower... I didn't sleep the day before, I was up for about 40 hours.' Johnson went on a hard-to-follow rant about a run-in with police officers as he jumped back and forth from multiple topics in no logical order. 'The police are coming or something's happening... I've not threatened to kill anybody. Did somebody say that I was going to kill somebody?' he said. 'I am going to. I've picked a fight. Who have I picked a fight with? Joe Rogan... Why? Out of principle. Family.' 'I'm challenging you, just as a man. I don't want to kill you. Why would I want to kill you? You have a family. I wouldn't want to take you away from your family. 'I wouldn't want that to happen so I hope that none of this is perceived as a threat. F**k you Joe Rogan, you guys can call all the cops.' It is understood Johnson blames Rogan for helping to unravel his supplement empire after the famed podcaster addressed his 2022 steroid scandal on air Later, his wife shared another video purporting to show the moment he was searched and placed into a cop car by officers. In the video, a member of his team, while filming, tells his wife that Johnson may have to spend up to 24 hours in jail as his matter is dealt with. Johnson was seen in footage filmed by a member of his 'team' wordlessly complying with officers as they patted him down while he wore handcuffs. Online records showed Johnson was booked by the Austin Police Department on Tuesday night and charged with making 'terroristic threats', a Class B misdemeanor. He was hit with a $20,000 bond, however it is unclear if he has posted bail yet. Separately, Johnson said in another deranged video that he is 'scared' and 'has PTSD' after a recent stint inside a 'Polish prison.' 'Now I'm kinda scared about going to jail when I'm around my family because then I can't do what I do, what a man does. 'You can no longer protect your family when you're in jail. That happened in Poland. I don't want that to happen again.' He appeared to be referencing a separate incident where he was detained on August 29 at Krakow Airport in Poland moments before boarding a private jet to Houston. Authorities found ammunition in his suitcase. Johnson received a fine and agreed to cover the costs of the investigation. Elsewhere in his bizarre rant, Johnson revealed 'last Thanksgiving I was dying,' adding that 'the CT scan says something is in dire straits.' Johnson had kept a relatively low profile after his steroid scandal came to light in 2022, but has resurfaced and ramped up his social media presence in the wake of a new Netflix documentary which released in April. 'Untold: The Liver King' explores his supplement empire and rise to the top by eating raw meat - specifically animal livers and testicles - on social media. After another fitness YouTuber caught him in his bold faced lie with blood test results and a leaked email, Johnson filmed a video admitting fault.
