Behind the polish and cool is a short, satisfying game that begs for repeated plays. Please don't let that synopsis put you off, though. You play as the dreamed-up alter ego of a woman dealing with heartbreak, battling characters based on Tarot cards - all done to an incredibly electro-pop soundtrack that I've already downloaded from Apple Music. Trying to distill the game down to a category, I'd call it a musical arcade racer where you're either avoiding objects or shooting antagonist bosses. Still, I want to rave about Sayonara Wild Hearts. As we collected our favorite games and thoughts on this new gaming service, I discovered I had played (and liked) more games than anyone else. Sayonara Wild Hearts ticks all the hipster mores to ensure it'll become a keystone title for Apple Arcade, even if it's not an exclusive to iOS.
