The story is of love and loss, and that is something we can see ourselves investing lots of time into. After seeing first hand how the mechanics affect the gameplay of journeying through beautifully designed levels, this is an adventure we’d like to see through until the end.

The game is meant to be a calming experience, and we are excited to see this narrative play out.įrom the first time we saw Arise, we knew that the world the game created was one that we wanted to explore. Players are then able to interact with the objects in the hours as they speak with the family and explore. During the story, a family’s plans for visiting an amusement part are foiled, and so they must stay home. Rainy Season can be completed in under an hour but offers many ways to approach its unique style of storytelling. The game also has many other sim gameplay features such as farming and gathering material that we can see ourselves committing to for hours of gameplay as we discover the story that these developers are trying to tell.

During the game, players will explore the world and lead spirits to the afterlife as they commit to the job duties of being the ferry master, but also learning more about the souls who end up requesting their services. Spiritfarer tells an emotional story of loss as the player assumes the role of Stella, a ferry master to the deceased.
