This may have been the first game I got through Twitch Prime. It never would have crossed my radar otherwise; sometimes there's some neat stuff on there. AER is a light exploration/puzzle game that's pretty to look at and that feels great to move (fly) in. Unfortunately, there's little worth looking at in the gameplay or story.
You don't really DO much except fly between islands in the sky (pretty, relaxing!) and wander around said islands looking for NPCs, reading lore, and going in caves to do some easy puzzle platforming. The caves, which you have to enter and solve, are really difficult to find! I flew around literally the entire map and only found two. I looked for an hour.
And I can't tell you what the same is about. You have a torch that can illuminate "memories of old," fragments of the past that you can observe and that often hint where to go or what to do. You're sort of following this mother and child on their journey to...something. Ask a god about the end of the world? The lore dumps are generic and I don't remember a single detail of any of them.
But at least the flying feels great, so even if you do just wander around looking at stuff for a while, it's an enjoyable enough experience.
