At first glance, ''Darkened Skye'' looks like your ordinary kind of [[RPG]] game. ''"[[High Fantasy|In the far-off and decidedly fictional land of Lynlora]], you play as Skye, [[Nothing Exciting Ever Happens Here|a bored shepherdess, who is lamenting her fate of being bored and trying to keep track of all these damn sheep]] when, suddenly, a commotion off in a clearing attracts her attention. When she goes to investigate, [[Magic Meteor|she finds an ancient magical artifact; a flattened spheroid, orange, with an S in the center]]. She takes it to the local wisewoman, who tells her...'why, it's a Skittles!'"''... ''' wait what?'''
 
You heard that right, we are talking about the [[wikipedia:Skittles chr(28)confectionerychr(29confectionery)|Skittle candies]]... I'll give you a second to collect your thoughts... Are you done?....
 
''" [[Mineral MacGuffin|Skittles are the source of all magic]] (Fancy you not knowing that!) and gathering them is vital to erase the darkness on Lynlora's sky. So our protagonist, [[Meaningful Name|Skye]], [[Jumped At the Call|sets off on a quest]] to return the rainbow to Lynlora, thereby returning Skittles and magic along with it."''
Line 19:
* [[All There in the Manual]]: Averted on the box. It's incredibly vague as to the actual plot of the game, probably because no one would buy it if it copped to being an advergame. The actual manual, however, mentions Skittles, complete with trademark symbol.
* [[Ambiguously Gay]]: The {{spoiler|Boss [[My Nayme Is|Vampyre]] in the Gargoyle Realm}}.
* [[Attack of the 50 -Foot Whatever]]: All enemies become these when Skye uses the Shrink Spell.
* [[Because Destiny Says So]]: Lampshaded by several NPCs that Skye is "she whose coming has been foretold".
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]: Draak is fluent several of the land's languages, particularly in the waterworld Ogmire.
