Sally
Sally is another much anticipated, and might I add breathtaking, game! In this life sim adventure you will live on an airship and travel the world. It’s all about discovery and meeting new people. Craft, cook, farm, build, and explore the skies made up of many floating islands waiting to be discovered. One great feature of this game is that the characters are different in every game you play so you can get to know your own unique crew aboard the ship.
It will take a village to lead the Sally to its final destination, and to do so, everyone aboard the ship will have to achieve their personal aspiration. Help your crewmates hone their craft and grow together to reach your full potential!
This is a game you don’t want to miss!
