Our take on Selma and the Wisp
The store presentation emphasizes atmosphere, visual style, and the unusual two-character control scheme, while giving less space to the game's basic structure: puzzles and arcade obstacles connected by platforming. The result is a distinctive premise, but not an indication of a broader adventure system.
