    Although far from being revolutionary, Kena Bridge of Sprits is a compelling action-adventure game with an heart-warming hero and really cute creatures to play with. Ember Lab put in this game all their experience in character design and animation, giving us a splendid – but also somewhat repetitive – cartoon movie to play with.

    Kena: Bridge of Spirits grounds itself on relaxation, healing, and cuteness, getting us to reflect and meditate on the beauty in the world when there is darkness abound.

    Kena isn’t especially inventive, but the game is an entertaining hodgepodge of tried-and-true ideas.

    This game is simplicity done right. The game is beautiful, the soundtrack is incredible and the gameplay is simple but fluid and fun. The gameThis game is simplicity done right. The game is beautiful, the soundtrack is incredible and the gameplay is simple but fluid and fun. The game runs surprisingly well on PS4. The progression could be better but for the first game of an indie studio this is a masterpiece.… Full Review »
