Nominated as a IGF Seamus McNally Finalist, NightSky is an ambient action-puzzle game that offers a gameplay experience unlike any other—cerebral challenges fill uniquely designed picturesque worlds. The player must maneuver a sphere by using realistic physics to advance; each of these worlds is broken into different areas. The original soundtrack by experimental jazz musician, Chris Schlarb will further heighten the surreal experience.

This game is indeed a hidden gem. The music and visuals are really beautiful. Playing this game truly feels meditative. Puzzles are quite easy in the first half, but other half features more difficult levels that are a delightful challenge.

You should definitely give it a try. For me it is a must play. I think it especially works well on a handheld such is 3DS.
