Is Spirit Roots worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Fans of traditional 2D platformers who want a 50-level game
- Players who enjoy combining jumping, combat, traps, coin collecting, and boss fights
- Platformer fans looking for varied worlds with different enemies and gameplay mechanics
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking open-ended exploration may find the fixed 50-level structure restrictive
- Those who want a platformer without combat, traps, or boss encounters may hit a wall during the core stages
- Players looking specifically for survival crafting or third-person shooting will not find those gameplay structures here
Our take on Spirit Roots
The bounce point comes when the platforming loop requires combat, trap evasion, coin collecting, and boss fights. Players seeking movement-focused stages without enemies or hazards will encounter those systems throughout the 50-level structure.
What is Spirit Roots?
Spirit Roots is a traditional 2D platformer set on a planet assembled from remnants of once-warring worlds.
The journey spans five atmospheric worlds, each with different enemies, mechanics, level designs, and soundtracks. Across 50 levels, players run, jump, fight enemies, evade traps, collect coins, and face bosses such as farmer robots, giant spiders, flying skulls, and mud monsters.
