The trick lies in where - and how - the game begins.Alto's Odyssey Lemur (Image credit: iMore) Laya’s Horizon is effectively a limitless series of flights down its enormous mountain. And how could a mobile game from a comparably small team do something new with this genre that’s been the bread and butter of big-budget console gaming for more than a decade?ĭeveloper Snowman cleverly solves this problem by working smarter, not harder, than its contemporaries. Most sprawling open-world designs don’t align with me spending a few minutes on my smartphone here and there. I admittedly held some skepticism while loading Laya’s Horizon. With two fingers on the touchscreen, you steer the character down mine shafts and under bridges at breakneck speed. You zip down the cliffs using a cape as if it were a wingsuit. Let me echo that word “brilliant.” Laya’s Horizon applies the Alto aesthetic to a mountainous island. However, that’s also the good news! If you already have a Netflix login, this brilliant game is effectively free. Netflix published the game on iOS and Android, meaning it’s only playable if you log in to the app with active Netflix credentials.
