Apr 18, 2025Forever Skies stuns with its visuals, score, and storytelling—but its true magic lies in the freedom to build and pilot your own airship through a post-apocalyptic sky. It’s thrilling, thoughtful, and wrapped in a tight gameplay loop with real emotional weight. The launch had a few bumps, but with updates on the horizon, this game’s future is nothing but skyward.

Apr 15, 2025Forever Skies stands as a bold and elegant entry into the survival genre. It doesn’t try to compete with the fast-paced chaos of PvP survival or the crowded silly co-op experiences of similar titles. Instead, it offers something quieter, deeper, and more reflective: a solitary journey through beauty and ruin, driven by discovery and sustained by curiosity. It’s a game that trusts you to take it slow, to get lost, and to find meaning in the silence. For those who love exploration, customizable bases, and stories told through the environment rather than exposition, this is a game that deserves your time. Even if the skies make your knees weak.

May 2, 2025Forever Skies takes you on a breathtaking journey above a ravaged Earth and down to its toxic surface. Its stunning visuals, paired with an excellent soundtrack, make for a captivating experience. Building your airborne base is both engaging and visually satisfying — and flying it is a real treat. Unfortunately, the story falls a bit flat, and the gameplay loop starts to feel repetitive too soon. The game could really benefit from more inventive mechanics and a greater variety of enemies. Still, it's an enjoyable title that just doesn’t quite live up to the full potential it clearly had.

Jul 11, 2025Forever Skies offers a relaxing survival experience with a unique atmosphere and an intriguing premise. However, its shallow gameplay loop lacks depth and urgency, making it easy to put down after a short session. While the game has charm, it struggles to stand out in a crowded genre full of similar titles.
