Yuna and the Spirit Forest is a 2D puzzle game that puts you in the shoes of Yuna, a spirit summoner apprentice. The guardian spirits have been kidnapped from her village. Being the only one there, she embarks on a mission to bring the spirits home despite being inexperienced.

Explore a magical pixel world

In Yuna and the Spirit Forest, you only rely on the powers of elemental spirits you collect along the way. Each spirit’s abilities can be used in combat and to solve puzzles. This puzzle-platformer pushes you to think creatively to progress, encouraging clever solutions and careful timing to overcome challenges.

The pixel art is charming, and the world feels magical. Progression follows a Metroidvania style, with backtracking and exploration required to unlock new areas and abilities. However, players who prefer fast-paced combat or nonstop action may find the gameplay a bit too slow and puzzle-heavy.

A calm adventure

Overall, Yuna and the Spirit Forest is a puzzle-platformer with a magical pixel-art world. Its Metroidvania exploration and creative use of elemental spirits make it perfect for players who enjoy strategy, problem-solving, and discovery. However, it might not suit those who prefer twitch-based combat.
