    This 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.

    Игра мне понравилась. Очень красивое, милое, сказочное приключение, в котором и неплохие загадки есть, и боевка хорошо отточена, боссы разнообразные (хоть и убивались по одной тактике почти), есть элементы платформинга, тоже не что-то выдающееся, просто норм.

Поначалу, глядя на карту думал, что опять открытый мир, но оказалось, что он довольно компактен и долго возиться в нем не получится, что только плюс. Сюжет... какой-то шаблонный, про познание себя и мира, всё в таком духе, не напрягает и хорошо. Блин, игра, созданная студией из 15 человек без игрового опыта, выглядит и звучиткруче многих ААА-игр от крупных издателей, моё почтение.… Expand

The game's graphics are very pleasant to look at, being very similar to the style of Disney/Pixar movies. Combat is very fast-paced and Souls-like. The highlight of this game is definitely the story and the combat but the music and graphics shine as well. This one definitely has the potential for a sequel and I am sure there are a lot of fans who are eagerly waiting for one… Expand

    Pure beauty
    Kena Bridge of spirits is a 7 and a half hour long 3d platformer where you play as kena, youre tasked with helping purify souls and the land around you.. there are 3 main spirits that need your help, theyre tormented by something in their past.. so youll go to each area of the map, traversing through environmental puzzles, gathering items to be able to summon the spirit of that area and help purify them in a boss battle.. let me start off by saying a lot of critics are calling this the best ps2 game of the year.. if you actually play more than AAA titles youll know that Kena Bridge of Spirits is nothing like a PS2 game other than LOL you jump in a 3D world if anything this is closer to a modern Tomb Raider game meets the pathless. Youll explore these little open areas, findig these cute charcters called Rots, you collect these rots which helps you level up and unlock new skills and you use these rots to purify the land and get to one of the 3 items you need to summon th spirit.. to do this youll go into these areas that are corrupted, there will be enemies there for you take take down, after a while you can sick your rots onto a corrupted heart and you then explode it and the land clears up and you can move on.. rinse and repeat.. howver not a repetitive rinse and repeat.. what kena does so great on is its pacing.. combat is few and far between, and im so glad it is because of how dull and boring combat is here… youre kinda just mashing buttons.. the joy comes from exploring, finding these rots, finding hats for them, and solving the puzzles… these puzzles aren’t necessarily hard.. theyre all environmental and just come down to you spotting the solution, and as you progress the game youll gain new items such as a bow that can zip you through the air, and a bomb that can fling debris up into the air.. constantly changing the puzzle solving up… but again simple puzzles.. this is a game you sit back and enjoy.. no thinking no stress.. just doing.. and I loved that.. and onto the beauty of this game.. The charcters, the level design, the set pieces.. this game is gorgeous.. my only real negative aside from the awful combat, iss the pretty lackluster story.. don’t get me wrong I absolutely loved the first half of this game, I even cried becsue the emotions and storying telling was so good.. but after that, the storytelling falls flat and is kinda just there…
    That being said Kena is a really special game and is a must play.

    Kena is simply a gem. The first game of Ember Labs delivers, the gameplay sometimes it is kinda simple but effective. Kena shines in bringing to the table an interesting and moving story for all ages.

    Lovely and emotional characters and their stories allows us to have a glimpse into this world that has a lot of love and dedication poured in it.

En ella encarnamos a Kena, una joven guía espiritual cuyo trabajo consiste en ayudar a las almas atrapadas en el mundo vivo a transicionar al mundo de los espíritus. En su viaje hacia el templo de la montaña se encuentra con una aldea muerta, víctima de un poderoso espíritu que ha corrompido el bosque y cortado el acceso al templo.

    A gorgeous game (on PS4 pro) with frustrating mechanics, invisible walls, twitch response events and the occasional glitches.

    Progression requires practice, willingness to parkour and puzzle solve without much in the way of hints, and boss battle willing to lose until you learn individual battle mechanics and damage avoidance.

    This game is gorgeous. Everything from the story to character animation to the level design is top notch. Combat has a bit of a learning curve and feels sorta 'mushy' at first. The level of polish on this thing from a first time studio is quasi insane. I think it's safe to say we can expect awesome things from Emberlab in the future.

    Сам геймплей игры очень похож на таковой в Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. Боёвка очень схожа. Плюсом есть паркур в стиле Uncharted. В игре не очень много разновидностей рядовых врагов, но много боссов которые в свою очередь напомнили мне таковых из Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice.
    В игре есть головоломки, не сложные, но их много.
    Прокачка ну совсем простенькая. Зачем её добавили, не знаю. Ты зарабатываешь типа очки опыта которые можешь потратить на открытие новых приёмов. Можно было бы просто открывать их по мере прохождения игры, ничего бы не изменилось. Так же по всей игре можно собрать некое подобие кристаллов, которые тратятся исключительно на покупку новых шапочек для тленышей. Я так и не понял прикола с этими шапочками. Они, ни на что не влияют. Поэтому к концу игры у меня скопилось около 7000 этих кристаллов, больше ни на что я их потратить не смог.
    Да о тленышах. Это такие забавные, десятисантиметровые чудики. Которых мы будем находить на протяжении всей игры, некоторых как корокские семячки в Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Они будут перетаскивать для нас предметы, сражаться с врагами превращаясь в рогатую каплю, а так же даут нам пару суперсильных атак, без которых биться с боссами было бы очень трудно.
    История мне понравилась, но я так и не понял из за чего начался мор в деревне изначально.
    Ну и атмосфера. По началу как то так себе, но потом когда ты понимаешь, что все без исключения персонажи с которыми ты общаешься давным давно мертвы... как то холодок пробегает по спине. И атмосфера появляется и держет до конца.
    Игра не длинная, за пару вечеров пройдётся.
    Ну теперь о злободневном. В игру засунули лесбиянок! Зачем? Зачем в игре с мультяшной графикой это надо было делать? Просто нет слов.
    Резюмирую. И так игра хорошая, не без нареканий, но 1390 рублей которые я за неё отдал явно стоит.

Unfortunately, the narrative is quite dull, tedious, and absolutely incapable of raising the player’s curiosity. It hasn’t got even a glimpse of something that could be called plot twist, being absolutely linear and predictable, while trying to be dramatic and deep, eventually failing to do so, as the characters lack decent backstory, what makes it hard to relate to them. Besides the main story, some side activities are also available, though none of them is actually interesting, so replay value of the game is rather questionable. Speaking of absolutely solid advantages of the game, it’s impossible to not note its awesome art style that makes it look much better than many major AAA-projects developed by the largest studios, and a unique, impressive, soothing soundtrack inspired by traditional Balinese music. It also should be noted that at some points while running at PS4 Slim hardware the game appears to show insignificant FPS drops, although the player’s experience is barely affected.… Expand

    In the medley of action-adventure games, Kena: Bridge of Spirits stands out with its soundtrack, unbeatable graphics, and creative storyline. It’s a fantastic first impression of Ember Lab’s game-developing skills. A few kinks need fixing, but that shouldn’t deter you from playing the game!

    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.

    As its first major release, Kena: Bridge of Spirits must be considered a success for Ember Lab. There are areas where significant improvement can be made, especially its combat, but the game provides a strong base to build upon. The overall gameplay will be very familiar to 3D adventure fans, but the visuals and charm help to make it feel like a fresh experience in the genre. More adventures for Kena and the Rot would be very welcome.
