About this game:
  • Regain your child-like sense of wonder in this social adventure game.
  • The Realms of Sky need the Light within you to heal the world of Darkness. Keep watch for the Spirits of your Ancestors. Some of them are stuck here—and they need your help. You have the power to free them, and return them to their home among the stars.
  • Explore an open world: A wholesome, cozy Kingdom filled with adventure and delight. The perfect place to hang out with friends—or a daily escape for those who prefer to relax and unwind on their own.
  • Embark on quests, solve puzzles, and explore the ruins of an ancient civilization. Take flight, make friends, and undergo trials to defeat the Darkness. Play music, attend concerts, and throw parties in your in-game home.
  • A kind, inclusive community is ready to welcome you and your loved ones. Express your personal style with an ever-expanding catalog of cosmetics; connect with other players through charming, beautifully-animated emotes. In Sky, you are welcome and encouraged to be whoever you are.
  • A Social MMO: Make sure to look out for other Sky Children! Some of them are new, like you, but many have been here for quite some time—and they love to guide new arrivals as yourself.

This game is free everywhere
I'm pretty sure this has been free always on several platforms (e.g., Nintendo Switch, Android, iOS, and maybe more). It might be new to Steam. See https://www.thatskygame.com/. I played it for a few hours a couple years ago on the Nintendo Switch, and it was fun.

Use windows in parallels for Mac

It's like 100-200$ per year which isn't worth it. Even after parallels, some thing don't work

Will try it on my steam deck which has probably 1" of dust on it by now thanks

Really? I've been enjoying finally catching up with my backlog. Just finished Shadow of Mordor and started Arkham knight. I've beat 4 games that are absolute classics I've never gotten to over the last few months. Even if it was just a Vapire Survivors machine I'd still love it.

This is a beautiful game worth the price of free, as long as you're playing the main quest once to the credits. After that, the freemium model kicks into high gear and it's pay to dress up your character, along with 80 hours of repetitive "run to the object, touch the object" sidequests that add little to the story. All the sidequests are for is to unlock more opportunities to pay for costumes.

This came out years ago and they're still adding sidequests.

"Free" to play trash for free is NOT a DEAL.

Pretty well reviewed just about everywhere.... Including the steam/other platform user reviews themselves.

I'll easily take the mass opinion over your very short troll post. Thanks for wasting your time!

Yeah same here. I haven't gone a day without picking it up since I got it back in the launch days. Amazing device still.

personally I just play stuff on my Series X. The software issues are just too much on Mac in terms of gaming https://static.slickdealscdn.com/ima...lies/frown.gif
Ironic that everything works on Linux just fine but Apple still hasn't gotten the hang of it.

Sounds like someone ripped off Zilpha Keatley Snyder's Below the Root. Green Sky Trilogy and C64 game.

I mean. I'm probably wrong. But I'm gonna play it and find out.
