How it feels
Commanding fleets in slow, deliberate space battles feels like orchestrating a grand tactical chess match with holographic displays.

What players say
Players are split on Skylight. Some enjoy the deliberate turn-based combat and fleet management, but many criticize the AI, calling it unintelligent and repetitive. The game is said to be quite hard and has limited content, though it includes both VR and non-VR modes.
