Sayonara Wild Hearts is essentially a playable pop album, and I mean that in the best way possible. From the second the opening track starts, you are whisked away into a neon-soaked fever dream that is as much a feast for the ears as it is for the eyes. Simogo has crafted something truly special here—a game that feels like a concentrated burst of pure style and emotion. It’s short, yes, but every second is polished to a mirror sheen.

The way the game shifts genres on the fly—going from a motorcycle chase to a VR-inspired rhythm shooter to a gravity-defying flight—without ever losing its rhythm is a masterclass in game design. It captures the feeling of heartbreak and the subsequent path to healing with an abstract, symbolic narrative that resonates deeply. Even if you aren't a fan of rhythm games, the aesthetic alone is worth the price of admission. It's the kind of game you finish in one sitting and then immediately start over just to experience the vibe again.

Dinsun Review

If this didn't have the LEGO license, it would be dead on arrival. The combat is incredibly simple—mash the button and hope for the best. There’s no real depth or technical skill like you’d find in Smash Bros. However, I have to admit that the character creator is genuinely impressive. Spending an hour making a knight with a pizza launcher is the highlight of the experience. The levels are well-themed but the actual 'brawling' feels floaty and lacks impact. It’s a great toy, but a mediocre fighting game.

Sayonara Wild Hearts is a dreamy arcade game about riding motorcycles, skateboarding, dance battling, shooting lasers, wielding swords, and breaking hearts at 200 mph. As the heart of a young woman breaks, the balance of the universe is disturbed.
