    Spirits is an award-winning puzzle game about wind, indirect control and creativity. Guide the spirits towards their destination by using them to manipulate wind, dig tunnels and build bridges of leaves. Find your own creative solution for each of the 40 beautifully hand-drawn levels.

    Spirits lets you play at your own pace. Pause the game at any time to get an overview over a level. Try to save as many spirits as possible and pick up the hard-to-get plants to reach a higher world rank. Sound and music are done completely with orchestral musical instruments giving the game a unique poetic feel.


    "Where Spirits really innovates is in its look and feel. When the wind physics start to do their thing, the experience is pretty magical."
    –TUAW, Mike Schramm

    "Spirits is more than just a pretty face, as you'll utilize little creatures to build ladders, dig tunnels, or blow gusts of wind to get their counterparts to an exit. It's similar to what we've seen in Lemmings or Downstream Panic, but the use of wind and the diverse puzzles keep things fresh and interesting."
    –GamesRadar

    Those familiar with Lemmings-style titles will slip in to Spirits without a second thought, though the physics based gameplay adds a new twist that suits the relaxed style perfectly.

    There's a nice soundtrack and a relaxing art direction to be sure, but beyond that, it is a paired down Lemmings clone. For a casual gamer whoThere's a nice soundtrack and a relaxing art direction to be sure, but beyond that, it is a paired down Lemmings clone. For a casual gamer who has never played Lemmings, or if you want a less complex return to Lemmings that requires little concentration to play, this game might be worth a look. Otherwise, the lack of originality is glaring.… Expand
