I'm usually a sucker for personal indie games that use metaphor to tell a narrative about personal acceptance and overcoming emotional turmoil but Sayonara Wild Hears takes things up a notch by having the metaphors be giant three headed wolf robots that you have to defeat with the lasers strapped to your motorcycle while listening to one of the greatest video game soundtracks of all time. The game may only take around an hour to complete but god if it isn't one of the most visually gorgeous and musically excellent hours I've spent with a video game, and I can already tell this is something I'm gonna keep coming back to over and over again. Once I adjusted to the gameplay rhythms of this I couldn't get enough.
