Sonic Dream Team pits the high-speed hedgehog against an evil mastermind with the power to make dreams real.
It’s one of four additions to the Apple Arcade gaming service, including Disney Dreamlight Valley, Puzzle & Dragons Story and Turmoil+.
All of these and hundreds more and playable with a single subscription fee.
4 new games in Apple Arcade
New games join Apple Arcade almost every week. But the service is trying something different this month. Instead of one game each Friday, all of December’s additions launched together on Tuesday. Introducing them later would have run the risk of the fresh titles getting lost in the general holiday hoopla.
So be aware, this is it for Apple Arcade additions before the end of 2023.
Sonic Dream Team is a bad dream come true
In Sonic Dream Team, the evil Doctor Eggman has discovered The Reverie — an ancient device with the power to manifest dreams in the real world. It’s up to players to guide Sonic and friends as they navigate twisted dreamscapes, rescue their friends, and put a stop to Doctor Eggman’s quest for world domination.
Players take command of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy Rose, Cream, and Rouge and use their unique abilities to race through mind-bending dream worlds that include wall-running, gravity changes, and more.
Sega’s Sonic Dream Team can be downloaded now from the App Store. The Apple Arcade exclusive is a single-player 3D action platformer. There are versions for iPhone, Mac, iPad and Apple TV, with external controllers supported.

Puzzle & Dragons Story offers, well, puzzles and dragons

Playing combines match-three puzzles with creature-collecting RPG gameplay in which players will recruit allies, improve their teams and conquer dungeons. Matching and erasing orbs commands the player’s allies to attack enemy creatures. Show skilled play and combos to unleash even more powerful attacks.
The developer, GungHo Online Entertainment, promises that new dungeons and creatures will be added frequently to keep the game fresh.

This is what Apple calls an App Store Great. It’s a previously released title added to Apple Arcade with any in-app purchases, ads, etc. stripped out. A “+” is added to the name to make this clear.
Turmoil+ is in the App Store now. It’s playable on iPhone and iPad.
