    Those who gave zero to the game or did not play the game or have problems with the game publisher, otherwise what is the reason to give zero to one of the best games of this year !?

    I want to give a piece of advice to the game heaters. See, your friends say that this game is for children and nothing is challenging. It may even get harder sometimes than dark souls

    ((Amazing graphics is one thing, but Bridge of Spirits is so much more thanks to engaging level design and surprisingly deep combat. It's a game that overdelivers on almost all fronts, making for a truly superb and memorable adventure)) “gamer no”...best critic for best game

    This game is like a double-edged sword, meaning that the left side is very beautiful, attractive and funny, and the right side is mysterious, mysterious and scary.

    No idea what game everyone else played but mine was full of jank, cheese, and bugs. Has some potential but fails to get remotely close to it.

    Kena is a masterpiece game with an amazing story, world, music. As the game progresses, it gets more and more interesting. I don’t want this game to end. * if u are playing on PS5 then use performance mode

Я специально поставил максимальный уровень сложности и старался по максимуму исследовать мир, чтобы получить максимум удовольствия от игры. Что тут сказать ещё, играйте, пробуйте и составьте собственное мнение о ней. Если Вам нравятся милые мультфильмы с красивой графикой и хорошим сюжетом, то Вам игра понравится. Expand

    Aquele jogo de plataforma que eu estava esperando, É uma obra de arte incompreendida que mistura zelda/jek and dexter/spyro. espero poder ver um segundo jogo em um futuro prévio.

    This is a great mixture of puzzle solving, combat, and some endearing characters. Very few things I’ve found wrong in my playthrough. Highly recommended. Probably one of the best of the year so far and that’s not hyperbole

The graphics are outstanding and I have filled my PlayStation with screen-shots of the magnificent visuals of the game's verdant landscape. Combat is the right amount of challenging as each boss brings has its own unique skills that have to be learned and evaded. Exploration is encouraged with a map full of hidden items to be discovered. The story and character development is almost non-existent, but the game gives just enough to keep game moving forward in a fun and exciting manner. I am blown away by the fact that this is an indie game and I am hopeful that this studio will have bigger and better games to come in the future. Expand

    Kena is a playful and beautiful adventure, but it does not bring any breathtaking innovation. But it has the potential to take you to a fairy tale and let you experience the story of a young girl, which is a balanced experience.

    Ember Lab didn’t try to reinvent the wheel. Instead the developers opted for tried and true mechanics that entertained us time and again in many action adventure games, and mixed them in an almost perfect way. The beginning might be a little slow, but when Kena: Bridge of Spirits gains momentum, it becomes truly great. It’s hard for me to point out any significant flaws apart from overall lack of originality. What a debut! [12/2021, p.74]

    Kena: Bridge of Spirits should take most gamers around 10 to 12 hours to complete, depending on the amount of exploring and the level of difficulty. While the blockbusters games of 2021 continue to deliver the same ho-hum experience of 2021, Kena is a much needed ray of sunshine to the current choices of titles available and more importantly, looks fantastic on the PlayStation 5.
