Yahtzee reviews Kena: Bridge of Spirits, a short, forgettable open-world game with generic combat, a bland story, and unsettling character designs that don't fit the tone.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The game is described as a "Zeldesque" open-world experience where Kena, a spirit guide, must cleanse corrupted areas of the map.
  2. 2
    Combat is standard hack-and-slash with light and heavy attacks, dodge, block, and parry mechanics.
  3. 3
    Exploration involves traversing the environment, solving puzzles, and climbing highlighted ledges.
  4. 4
    Kena's personal connection to the story is minimal, acting more as a janitor cleaning up messes.
  5. 5
    The narrative involves Kena helping restless spirits move on and uncovering the cause of a disaster plaguing the land.
  6. 6
    The game features generic humanoid boss monsters.
  7. 7
    The art style, inspired by Disney Pixar, features large eyes and chubby cheeks, which Yahtzee finds unfitting for the game's serious tone.
  8. 8
    The game is relatively short, playable in two gameplay sessions.
Tips
  • The game offers a bare upgrade tree with limited options.
  • Optional chests often contain hats for Kena's companions (potato-men), which can be a disappointing reward for difficult challenges.
  • The lack of meaningful collectibles or equipment systems is noted as a potential drawback.
  • Yahtzee suggests that the game's forgettableness makes it difficult to recall details after completion.
  • The character design is a significant point of contention for Yahtzee, feeling out of place with the game's themes.
