Apple has named RAC7's Sneaky Sasquatch its Apple Arcade Game of the Year.

The adventure game was one of the launch titles for Apple Arcade when it launched in September 2019. Upon release, the service boasted 79 games, though that number quickly grew to 100.

Currently, there are 143 mobile titles available on Apple Arcade.

However, it was joined by some popular games in the top 20. Coming in at No.2 was Sonic Racing, with Skate City, Hot Lava and Pac-Man Party Royale closing out the top five Apple Arcade games.
