Summary

"Embark on an unforgettable social adventure and an ever-expanding world. Sky: Children of the Light is a heartwarming and beautifully animated social adventure experience designed to be played together by you and your loved ones. Set in a wonderland above the clouds, Sky invites you and your friends to fly up to explore the buried mysteries together and rebuild a fallen kingdom for its ancient inhabitants. Using your courage and compassion, players must connect as a community to share and build on their flame to spread light back into the world."

Originally I got it becuz i wanted to see Aurora's concert with my friends and family. Eventually I did try playing the game.

I like the exploration, the learning as you go, the option to have help or solo it out.

I love the way the story converges and what happens after. Wont spoil. There is a struggle to get to that end but I feel like it makes the ending more beautiful.

I wish I coud understand a few of the mechanics a bit more. Im not good at finding secrets and the compulsive side in me wants to get all the collector items, but that requires a lot of grinding for the currency candles.

All in all I like that this game doesnt punish me for going away. I can come back to it and rediscover the joy of flying around and discovering places.

An amazing game with great music…too sad that the content becomes repetitive and there’s no more things left to do,you can finish the game relatively fast. Better playing with a friend,it’s more fun!

If it wasn't for one thing, I'd absolutely love the game for what it is. It is cute and wholesome, I enjoy how the online function allows for nonverbal interactions by sound bites and body movements - it makes you be creative and also allows the game to keep its childlike wonder. The exploration is fun but sometimes flying is annoying due to clunky movements.

What essentially turned me off is the same reason I had to quit two other games I otherwise thoroughly enjoyed: Timed events.

I understand why free to play games have them but it seems its not at all for me. I get very frustrated when a game forces me to play to not miss out on stories, unique items, or characters. So while the idea of "seasons" as they call it here and special events totally makes sense for the game and enriches it somewhat, I can't do it. When I get the feeling I have to play NOW or miss out, I lose all fun.

Unfortunately that means free to play games that implement this are never gonna be my thing. Which is sad cause I really enjoyed some of them otherwise.

PS. I also dislike in-game purchases but as long as they're only cosmetic (outfits in this case), I am mostly okay with it. Though I don't think you should be able to pay for better equipment, skills or faster progression. That's just my two cents.
