Game mechanics

Old Skies is a classic adventure game. We explore locations, conduct conversations, collect items and solve puzzles.

The game offers a variety of puzzles, and many of them require from us a clever use of the ability to manipulate time. Interestingly, it is easy to die in the game. However, then we can go back to the past and try a different approach to a given problem.

Old Skies lets us visit seven historical periods, including, among others, times of Prohibition, so called Gilded Age (the 1880s) or the morning of September 11, 2001, and in each of these places different challenges and problems await us.

Game modes

The game features a single player mode only.
