Sky: Children of the Light, the gorgeous new adventure game from the makers of Journey, has finally landed on iOS.

The game hopes to deliver “a world of wonder where compassion and generosity are interwoven and integral to the story.” It’s free to download, and it is already racking up rave reviews for players.

We’ve been waiting a long time for Sky to finally arrive. The game was first announced way back in 2017, and it was initially scheduled to hit the App Store on July 11 but suffered a week-long delay.

Now it’s finally here, and it is everything we hoped it would be. Players can look forward to jaw-dropping visuals and a unique, abstract gameplay experience that will mesmerize you.

Sky is well worth your time

Described as a “romantic adventure game,” Sky lets you explore a stunning fantasy world with seven different dreamlike realms in which you’ll be tasked with solving mind-bending puzzles.

Your primary objective is to spread light throughout the kingdom and return the fallen stars to their constellations. And that’s just the start of it; Sky’s creator promises new adventures, characters, and stories later. We will also see seasonal events.

Throughout your journey, you can share candles of light with friends to help them along their way. You will also be able to team up with others to save spirits and uncover hidden treasures.

Enjoy Sky: Children of the Light today

Sky is available first on iOS, and will later make its way to Apple TV, Android, console, and PC. It’s free-to-play and has already earned a 4.9-star rating on the App Store.

Download the game now and enjoy it for yourself.
