A gentle, uplifting social adventure that feels like a peaceful daily escape into a warmly-lit kingdom of wonder and connection.

What players say

Players are split on Sky. Many say it is beautiful and relaxing, but the daily grind for candles takes over an hour and monetization is aggressive, with single capes costing up to $30. Long-time players report that bugs go unfixed for years and the social atmosphere has soured, making the game feel lonely or full of players begging for help.
