Our Take

With its animated film-like visuals, Kena: Bridge of Spirits could be worth a look. But at $39.99, the decision is tough without more information on gameplay depth.

Review

Kena: Bridge of Spirits provides a visually striking experience, reminiscent of animated films. It's intriguing with its mix of action, adventure, and strategy elements. The magic-based combat using a staff and the mechanic of guiding small creatures could offer unique gameplay. However, specifics on gameplay depth or length are unclear, which may affect player satisfaction. Compared to other indie games with an animation style, it stands out visually but needs more clarity on its mechanics to justify the price.
