   A unique social sandbox adventure disguised as a game. The best proof that mobile games can be art too. Astonishingly.

   Sky Children of the light is a free to play 3 hour long advemnture game all about exploration, and it is pure beauty, Sky comes from the same team that worked on flower and journey, and let me tell you.. the music, the visuals, its feels like youre immersed inside of a movie..Sky is absolutely gorgeous, I couldn’t help but smile is id fly through the air, being carried by the wind, while this beautiful music plays. in Sky children of the light youll be running ar flying around, finding these lost souls, upgrading your wings, and moving onto the next section, but around you are other players in real time, trying to do the same, so youl lbe able to make friends, interact with them, help guide them to spirits, I felt so much joy running through this world.
   My only complaint is that sky does the annoying colectathon thing at the end, of oh no you didn’t find enough of these golden children, go back and replay the levels until you’ve found enough..
   Other than that, Sky Children of light is great, its mesmerizing, so relaxing.. no combat, no real enemies, just explore, unlock cosmetics and emotes, make friends with random people, take in your surroundings, breathe, and enjoy the ride.
   I give Sky: Children of the Light
   an 8/10… Expand

   SKY: FLYING FRIENDSHIP SIMULATOR
   While its ambiguous gameplay doesn’t much impress, and its idea that friendship can be bought questionable,SKY: FLYING FRIENDSHIP SIMULATOR
   While its ambiguous gameplay doesn’t much impress, and its idea that friendship can be bought questionable, Sky sets a new high for social interaction and visual and audio fidelity, in both a mobile game and gaming in general.
   
   Where in Journey social interaction was sparse and limited, Sky seems bustling and you are very much sharing the same space with at times five or so other players. The feeling of shared experience this created was a very wholesome one. I can see other games adopting this, where the community and shared experience enhances the gameplay and gives a feeling of camaraderie in-game.
   
   The natural social interactions that occur as you play were very interesting and exciting, almost serendipitous, however as you progress you are expected to sort of ‘make friends’ by giving someone an offering. This singling someone out to make friends with, and making them offerings to you to grow your friendship felt quite false. The more candles you offer your friend (and they pay you in return) the more quickly you can grow your friendship ‘tree’ full of new interactions like high-fives that only work between you and that player. You have to start all over again with a different friend. All in all quite questionable. Maybe the free to play model is to blame for this (you do earn plenty of candles as you play however). Of course making friends is totally optional, but you might feel a bit left out if you don’t when everyone else is flying around together, holding one another’s hands. If that image makes you sick, don’t worry it makes me sick too.
   
   I haven’t mentioned the gameplay much, because If I’m completely honest there is none - it’s just flapping your wings about and proposing to one another and ****ing eachothers ****s.
   
   I’m a sure a new audience will enjoy it (i.e. children), and will be making some ‘friends’ as well as some phoney people who will find it deep and moving, but although the premise is interesting, I personally am not currently in the market for a game that summed up is about flying around aimlessly while making virtual candlestick buddies. Long time Journey fans will probably be disappointed with this one, but overall it’s a very unique experience that does admittedly break new ground, that someone else can do something ultimately more useful with.
   
   Perhaps if Sky gets a re-release on consoles at a set price, without the MTX, the game will drop the bad parts keep the good parts and come out on top.
   
   SCORE: 6
   + Beautiful graphics
   + Beautiful soundtrack
   + Interesting social experience
   - Questionable portrayal of what friendship is (possibly damaging)
   - Other than giving each-other candles and high-fives and going 'whoa' at the scenery while you flap through it there is effectively no gameplay
