Kena: Bridge of Spirits is a looker, and the Pixar comparisons that have been flying around are justified. The lush world and its inhabitants radiate with personality. Even the bulbs of corruption that plague the land are oddly attractive. Kena’s got the Hollywood looks down, but it’s also got the Hollywood determination to play it safe. It’s a well-made but conventional action adventure game that does nothing you haven’t seen before.
Kena is a spirit guide who helps souls move on from the mortal plane. This means searching three areas for relics, clearing corruption, and defeating lesser unfriendly spirits on the way. Seeking out relics to gently move a soul on, I can understand, but repeatedly hitting them in the face with a stick? That seems rather unorthodox. Shows what I know.
