Three hearts, one infinite canvas, together we illuminate a starry night.
Dear Van Gogh is an interactive journey through the life, art, and inner world of Vincent van Gogh. Travel inside his paintings to witness his earliest uncertainties, his Paris awakening, and the fragile beauty of his final years. Discover and feel the weight of a life lived, and the invisible hands that held it together.
From the award-winning creators of Journey, join a global community and play through an unforgettable experience of empathy, connection, and art.
A Story Most People Have Never Heard
Everyone knows the legend of Van Gogh. Few know the full story.
At the heart of Van Gogh’s life was a decades-long exchange of letters with his brother, Theo, filled with doubt, wonder, and unfailing devotion that made Van Gogh’s art possible in the first place. Now you can discover that bond firsthand. Guided by Johanna, Theo’s wife and the quiet force who carried Vincent’s legacy forward, you will piece together the story behind the paintings and discover that what we call genius was also, and always, an act of love.
Dear Van Gogh is their story, as much as his.
Art You Can Walk Through
Explore beautiful, playable environments made from Van Gogh's best known paintings, from sunlit fields in the Netherlands to the glowing night skies that only he could imagine. Each and every landscape is a work of art in motion, rendered in his bold, expressive brushstroke style and alive with the emotion he poured into every canvas.
Paint the World with Others
Just as Van Gogh was never truly alone in his creative journey, neither are you. Use Sky’s signature brushstroke mechanic to collaborate with other players, bringing color and light back to the world together. Because some things are simply more beautiful when shared.
Return to the Real World, Evolved
At the end of the experience, pause and look back at what you experienced. You’re welcome to reflect on and share what you observed and what moved you. Dear Van Gogh in Sky is more than just a game, it is an invitation to see one of history’s greatest artists in a new light, and question everything you thought you knew about the story behind the art.

okay at first I thought it wasnt gonna work (cause im using an ipad mini 2 that is outdated+most of what I download kept crashing) because of the good quality but hwala!! It worked!! I also thought the people were just bots who would’ve thought they were real 😭😭 anyway ofc at some point it was stressful but it was fun! Had to uninstall it though because lack of space&no internet connection but it was fun nonetheless!! Highly reccomend

The game is wonderful!!!!!! I really enjoyed it and I still do!! I have only one thing to complain about: the two player mood is good but there are a lot of bugs glitches and chibi falls ( a glitch that happened in the past with an item named chibi mask) but me and my friend did the eye of eden level together and it was fine. but the game is good enough to make those problems be nothing
Cooler then u

This game is really really great. I never saw that kind of game before, and its a great idea. Everyday i meet new people from around the world and everyone is helping each others- the whole community is really awesome! Everyday I discover something new, and the ending is unexpected and beautifully crafted. People are really ungrateful for this awesome, unique, wonderful game- that they get for free!
