A retro magpie power fantasy where “swooping season” never ends
Pie in the Sky is out now on PC via Steam, turning you loose as an Australian magpie with one job: cause chaos, steal food, and terrorize anyone unlucky enough to walk beneath your flight path.
Classic arcade-style objectives, score-chasing mischief, and a deliberately throwback look inspired by the PlayStation 2 era. Expect swoops, snatch-and-run theft, and a tour across multiple Aussie-themed areas built around collecting, secrets, and side challenges — including the kind of ridiculous moments that only make sense when you’re playing as a bird. If retro-flavoured indie action is your thing, our Huntdown: Overtime review goes in a much more violent direction.
