Cloud is a very mellow, very artsy game that was created by a group from the USC School of Cinema and Television on a grant from Electronic Arts. You fly around the sky, attracting clouds to you and mushing them together to make bigger clouds, which you then either “paint” into shapes, or push against “pollution” clouds to create rain and lightning. No enemies, no time limit, no chance of losing, which makes it more of a “toy” than a “game”. It is, however, very very restful, and I fell right asleep after playing it before bed last night. I recommend that you do the same tonight, but by all means do not try to operate heavy machinery after playing.
