What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise the game's stunning visuals, atmospheric music, and relaxing vibe, comparing it favorably to Journey and Abzu as a beautiful, stress-free experience. However, some criticize the $20 price point as steep for what is essentially a short walking simulator with barebones gameplay, and several report significant optimization issues with poor framerate performance regardless of graphics settings.
I recommend the game but on discount. You can zoom through the game in about an hour. $40 as of 2026 is a bit rough. Assuming its because of the Unreal tax plus Malukah maybe? Its a super easy game, very grindy if you know these folks games when you want to 100% the thing. Nice visually and music was good as well. If you played the other games you know what you are getting into.1 found this helpful
After playing ABZU I was looking forward to this and it didn't disappoint! Fun gameplay with some literal breath taking visuals.
A must play and 100% worth the price. One of the most beautiful games I have ever played. Gorgeous, great soundtrack, and a wonderous experience. Challenging at times, but once you get the hang of the controls, it is such a satisfying feeling to pull off tricks and smoothly glide around like the amazing world of this game. 10/10
Art at its finest
Another great game from Giant Squid! Sword of the Sea brings inspiration from both Journey and Abzü that create a combination of beautiful visual design, minimalist user interface, smooth movements, memorable music and a heroes' journey familiar to the developers previous projects. It was great to see the ¨Wanderer¨ from The Pathless make an appearance in the game as well.
Just wow. What a spectacle.
