Exploring Iceland as a furry fox friend has been a real treat. It’s delicious eye candy with a satisfyingly chewy center. Yes, there were times when I hoped for a little more direction in solving puzzles. Those brand new help cards on the PlayStation 5 dashboard sure would have been nice (fingers crossed we see those when the game officially releases). That said, Spirit of the North is too beautiful and captivating to be disappointed for long. If you love games like Lost Ember, I can’t recommend adding Spirit of the North to your collection enough.

Even as a fairly short game, Spirit of the North managed to accomplish what it had set out to achieve – to tell us a story without words and to slow us down. A truly unique experience where the visuals and music were its greatest strengths, it shows that a game does not have to be filled with excitement for it to be gratifying. It wasn’t a perfect adventure, but it served as an important reminder to always be curious about your surroundings, to take your time, and to stop and smell the flowers.

When i see bad opinions about this game i straith away know that people didnt understand what this game is about. The controls are a bit toughter then in call of duty but dont forget you play a fox ffs not a marine. Some people may be as well luck of knowlage that fox actually in some mitology where know as a the one who can see spirits and can travel bettwen two worlds. The music is a masterpice in this adventure, sad that this game is so short. Its good to take a finger off sometimes from cod and play something wirh ambitious then just brainless shooting.

Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition is an amazing experience, blending video games with art. A peaceful and relaxing game to play. While the lack of "action" due to the game lacking enemies, Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition relies on puzzles and strategy to entertain the player. The game is stunning visually, a great improvement on the standard edition of the game, and shows off nicely the added power in the PlayStation 5. The art design, soundtrack, and environment are top notch, working together to create an unforgettable experience. The game is a definite change of pace from most, and some will find the puzzles and style tedious or boring, however, those willing to undertake the task and sit back and enjoy the world created in Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition are in for a treat. One of the best games available on the PlayStation 5, and one of the most surprisingly pleasant titles I have experienced in awhile. Highly recommended.

At its best, Spirit of the North Enhanced Edition is an atmospheric adventure set within an abandoned landscape that offers its fair share of challenges but little in the way of meaningful takeaways.

Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition is a pretty puzzle platformer, perhaps not revolutionary but for an indie game it's a good debut on PS5 from Infuse Studio. We just wish it used the Dualsense functions at all as it feels like a missed opportunity.

Spirit of the North remains a beautiful but hollow experience on PS5. The 4K 60 frames upgrade is glorious to behold, but the lack of DualSense integration in a game that’s crying out for it and hangups from the last-gen version makes it difficult to recommend.

Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition is a short and lighthearted adventure that boasts a good visual department but is crippled by several annoying technical problems.

As a relaxing, meditative experience, Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition succeeds; as a video game, even within a genre based on light gameplay, Spirit of the North: Enhanced Edition is a pleasant, dull distraction that is hard to justify for those looking to actually play something.

Spirit of the North is a very pretty explosion platforming game with some of the most amazing environmental storytelling.

It's so pretty it hurts. it gets a little repetitive, yes, but it's a short enough game so it doesn't get boring. I just wish the game would let the player free roam after finishing it, to explore the maps

Juego muy normalito para jugar si tienes game pass, si no no merece la pena. Artísticamente no está mal, es un juego muy contemplativo con una buena banda sonora y puzzles sencillitos. Para jugar de chill o incluso con hijos not bad.
