Excerpt: What is Skysaga and why should you care about it?
At face value the game seems very much in line with the modern standards of minecraftian sandbox building games. However as you dig under the hood you find that the game experience is so much more intricate and rich.
SkySaga is a massively multiplayer sandbox building and exploration game. It combines a mix of worlds with limited persistence and your own floating island for which you have complete control and your structures have permanence. Through its voxel-based engine you can build massive structures with a level of intricate detail not seen in the traditional block based building games.
