Meditative bird simulator. Feather is all about exploring a mysterious island full of beautiful views and ambient sounds. It is a game for relaxation, so there are no dangers or skill challenges.
In The Feather players assume the role of a bird discovering the skies of a vast island, where the atmosphere and soundtrack deepen the impression of immersion into the in-game world. The game was created by Samurai Punk studio known for creating such productions as Screen Cheat, and The American Dream.
The Feather is an artistic game focused on exploring the island in the form of a bird and admiring its breathtaking views. Players can see forests, meadows, rivers, and fields, but also high mountains and beaches. Each of them is connected with experiencing a different atmosphere, especially that it can be influenced not only by atmospheric ambient songs but also by the day and night cycle.
The Feather itself is calm and more of an experience. There are no elements of fear, struggle or unpleasant surprises. It's all about the bird's flight, which is the most fun to control. It is well thought out, perfectly responsive and gives the impression of real control of a living bird. And although there are trees or other obstacles to avoid, the collision with them is not connected with the death of one's little hero. Instead, players will only hear the unpleasant sound of a collision.
There are special rings on the island, which if players decide to fly through, they offer them a change of the song played in the background. There are nine of those available in the game.
The Feather adventure can be experienced in single player mode, but also with up to three friends. However, this does not involve a change in the game itself.

Game Ratings for Feather Video Game.
Pure Nintendo: 4 / 10 by Trevor Gould
While I like the intent that Feather brings to the table, its ideas are implemented in a subpar fashion. This is a proof of concept, whose asking price doesn't reflect its current modest state. I can't recommend it unless a sizable update arrives to unlock its potential.
FingerGuns: 6 / 10 by Toby Andersen
Probably the quickest and most pleasant platinum trophy on the Playstation 4, Feather gives you the chance to soar like a bird. It’s a shame that it is held back by an empty world, a lack of interesting things to do beyond flight, and control glitches.
COGconnected: 56 / 100 by Alexander Thomas
Feather sets out to create the most relaxing and calming experience you can have in a game. With its varied yet mellow and uplifting soundtrack, its basic yet brightly colored visuals, and the great detail that goes into the rustling of the birds feathers, it can be quite a joy to soar through the air and practice trench runs through the cave tunnels. However, in designing a game to relax it’s also made with no stakes and no threats, so much of the serenity you experience after the initial elation of flight is from not feeling like there is an imminent threat at all.
