How it feels

A meditative action-adventure that feels like floating through a darkly whimsical, psychedelic dreamscape while solving puzzles and throwing rocks at bizarre enemies.

What players say

Players are split on Lila's Sky Ark. The unique combat of throwing one-use items at enemies is praised for its charm by some, but others call it tedious and cumbersome, especially in boss fights. The game is short, around 10 hours, and has a strong, surreal atmosphere, but the story is often found forgettable and the ending unsatisfying, with a sharp difficulty spike late in the game.
