The WhatsNext verdict

For Players who want a light, silly life sim where you spend a short, playful run as a fly working through a bucket list.: Each goal is a small absurd errand, and the fly's view turns everyday pursuits into a comic trip you can take in relaxed stretches. Tradeoff: Its modest systems and light build options leave little room for players who want deep planning or long-haul progression.

The setup

What you are walking into

This whimsical game is part open world and part flight simulator – and you play it as a fly! You are provided with a bucket list that you can complete before you die. But the life of a fly is short – and the list is long! Go ahead and learn an instrument, become rich, read a book, go on tour, find yourself, get drunk, make someone laugh or enter the art world! And if you don’t feel like pursuing your life goals, just hang, clean your wings, listen to music or watch television. Make the best of the time you have! Because we are all going to die.
