We love free stuff, and Sky: Children of the Light is perhaps the best experience you can get for free on the Switch to date. The visuals are simply stunning, whether you’re playing in handheld mode or on the big screen, and the variety of the game’s different worlds provides more than enough incentive to explore. The social aspect is solid, and the game’s unique ability to foster bonds with complete strangers is frankly a marvel. The only real downside is that the gameplay is so simplistic in nature, so we’re not certain it will keep players around for long to experience any future updates. If it does grab your attention, however, then a magical experience awaits.

I can certainly appreciate what thatgamecompany accomplished when it created Sky. It's beautiful, and has a lot of things to see, do, and explore. It just didn't click with me, though. I think a game like this requires a fair amount of patience and interest in the world and learning its mechanics. I also just cannot be bothered to try interacting with other people online in the ways the game wants me to.

Still, you can't beat the price of admission - it's free to download, and you can do pretty much everything without spending a nickel.
