About Ambrosia Sky

Ambrosia Sky is an adventure simulator set in deep space, developed by Soft Rains and released on November 10, 2025. You play Dalia, a specialist tackling a crisis on Saturn’s icy rings. The game blends resource management with environmental storytelling as you clean up an invasive alien fungus, manage oxygen reserves, and solve scientific puzzles. It’s a slow-burn experience focused on survival and discovery, with a minimalist art style and eerie atmosphere. No combat or fast-paced action here, just you, a spacesuit, and the vast unknown.

Gameplay

You’ll spend most sessions drifting through derelict stations, collecting samples, and using tools like a grapple hook and bioluminescent markers to navigate. Oxygen limits your time in hazardous zones, forcing strategic planning. Each fungus cluster requires specific solutions, sometimes you’ll sterilize it, other times you’ll study its mutations. Missions are linear but punctuated by environmental hazards and cryptic logs. Controls are first-person and responsive, though movement can feel sluggish during tense moments. The focus is on methodical problem-solving over action, with a rhythm that leans into isolation and quiet reflection.

What Players Think

PlayPile users rate it 78%, with 72% completing the main story. Average playtime is 12 hours, though 25% report hitting 20+ hours. The mood is split: 65% describe it as "curious and atmospheric," while 30% call it "slow and isolating." Community reviews praise the setting but criticize repetitive tasks, with one user writing, "The fungus cleanup feels like a chore." Completion rates drop after the first 8 hours, where the game ramps up resource scarcity. Achievements (32 total) are optional but tough, with "Sterilize All Biomes Without Dying" clocking 13% completion. Critics compare it to Soma and The Outer Worlds but with more survival mechanics.

PlayPile's Take

Ambrosia Sky works best for fans of slow-burn survival games and science fiction. At $49.99, it’s a niche pick, $10 cheaper than similar titles like Grounded. The 12-hour average playtime might feel short for the price, but the 32 achievements add replayability. Skip if you crave action or fast pacing. The alien fungus mechanic is clever but repetitive, and the learning curve for resource management can be steep. If you enjoy methodical exploration and don’t mind a cryptic ending, it’s worth a shot.
