⚠️SPOILER WARNING⚠️

A gorgeous social adventure in a gorgeous world in the clouds.

Likes

• The story is fairly simple to understand yet filled with moving symbolism.
• So much to explore!
• Helping out and befriending other players is rewarding.
• Includes areas added from events taking place prior to the Switch version's release.
• Daily quests and seasonal events!

Gripes

• Inconsistent framerate on high-performance mode. 
• The game's physics are a bit... wonky.
• And so is the camera at times.
• Microtransactions...*
• Some areas feel a bit too dependent on the help of other players.**

SCORE: 5/5

*To be fair, the game's a free download on the eShop. So, all in all, it's worth it.

**Sky is defined as a social adventure game, so needing to open doors or complete certain quests with the help of other players comes with the territory.
