Our take on Spirits
Rather than centering action on combat, Spirits makes the environment the main puzzle: players redirect wind and reshape terrain, spending spirits to create routes toward each level's goal.
What is Spirits?
Spirits is an action-puzzle game in which leaf spirits travel toward a goal as autumn approaches.
Guide them by changing wind direction or rebuilding the ground. Each spirit can be used up to perform one of four actions: make a leaf bridge, create a cloud that blows, dig a tunnel, or block wind in an area. Because the supply of spirits is limited, each action affects the options available for the rest of the level.
Levels allow different routes and solutions, and some contain plants placed in hard-to-reach spots. The game includes 46 hand-drawn levels, with additional levels credited to player Pyjamads. It also offers Steam achievements, custom world ranks, orchestral music, sound effects, and a digital booklet with previously unreleased material.
