Our take on Forward to the Sky
Rather than centering the genre on sustained combat or a sprawling world, the game places upward exploration and environmental puzzles at the core. Its relaxed tone, compact six-level structure, and story fragments give the action-adventure format a quieter, more contained shape.
What is Forward to the Sky?
Forward to the Sky is a third-person action-adventure game set in the remains of a tower above the clouds.
Players guide a princess upward while gathering crystal fragments that piece together the tower’s forgotten history. The game combines platforming puzzles, combat, traps, elemental hazards, and interactive mechanisms across 6 levels. Its bright visual style, calm music, and straightforward controls support a relaxed adventure, while additional difficulty provides a challenge for experienced players. Progress involves finding routes through each level, overcoming obstacles, and reaching the tower’s highest point, where the story is revealed.
