Did you look at the App Store listing, or download and try the free app? It's surprisingly bad. I was ready to comment against this decision until I looked at it myself.

No, I simply looked at a few videos of people playing it. Note that I'm not saying it's a good game, just that being a bad game doesn't imply it's not art.
The developer -sorry, studio- is the one claiming this is art. I was curious, looked, and saw nothing remotely resembling art.
I encourage you to review the App Store listing since that is what is being removed. The description on this free app still shows "80% off limited time sale!" on this art (which is now free, so the description makes no sense).
I think this is much ado about nothing. If you cared about the app, make it something people want. Nobody wants a game from 2015 with bad graphics and lackluster storyline.
Art is in the eye of the beholder.
So why are you telling Apple (the 'beholder' in this case) that they're wrong? Your statement means everyone's opinion about art is valid, which means even this comment is art™
Apple isn't the beholder here. Users are.
I think you're just using an overly narrow definition of art that excludes things you don't find aesthetically pleasing. I'm assuming you also wouldn't find Rauschenberg's white paintings (https://www.rauschenbergfoundation.org/art/galleries/series/...) or Picasso's various animal drawings (https://www.pablopicasso.net/images/Camel%20Pablo%20Picasso....) to be art?
Would you care to venture a definition of art?
