About the game
What you do in a play session
Each player takes on a role with unique abilities, adding an extra layer of strategy to the cooperation. You'll need to manage your action points wisely, moving across the unstable grid, collecting the right components, and building power routes. The modular board ensures each game is a new challenge, with the platform revealing itself piece by piece. The map reduction and grid coverage mechanics add tension as the playable space becomes increasingly perilous. It's a true test of courage and teamwork, where one wrong step can mean the end for everyone. Perfect for those who enjoy cooperative games with a strong theme and engaging mechanics that demand planning and coordination. If you like feeling the pressure and celebrating victory together, Forbidden Sky is a sure bet!
