Flying with Icarus is a fun and adventurous flying action game—starring the world's first ever flyers, Icarus and Daedalus!

MISSION 
Icarus (the young adventurer) and Daedalus (the wise inventor) are trapped in King Minos's inescapable labyrinth on Crete. Inventing wings from feathers and wax, they are ready to escape to freedom.

### 1/5 — So hard

*2021-08-07, version 1.6*

When I started it was all good but now it is not there are so many levels I always lose the harder ones

### 2/5 — Nice concept

*2019-07-08, version 1.6*

Cool game but it’s extremely annoying when it randomly freezes and you have to restart the whole thing after you spent nectar. Or when you loose health for no reason at all.

### 5/5 — Nice concept!

*2017-06-30*

Fun game, cool graphics, each level is slightly harder but still easy for my little guys.

### 5/5 — So cool

*2017-06-29, version 1.3*

### 5/5 — Great game!
