Guide spirits to their destination in this adventure game
Spiritfarer is an adventure game that puts a unique spin on the idea of the afterlife. In this management game from Thunder Lotus Games, you will have to build a boat that will help take you to a number of destinations, meet new souls, and send your new friends off into the afterlife.
In Spiritfarer, you will have to perform a number of different tasks—such as farming, mining, fishing, harvesting, and cooking—in order to improve your ferry and connect with the spirits you meet along the way. A similar title to check out would be Afterparty.
Meet characters with heartwarming stories
With stunning, hand-drawn art and colorful sceneries, Spiritfarer isn’t quite what you’d expect from a game that revolves around the idea of death. It offers a heartwarming take that presents you with life lessons and a calming atmosphere that doesn’t rush you into completing tasks. Players will also be able to meet unique characters with well-written stories that allow them to unravel the game’s larger mysteries.
As already mentioned, players will have to complete tasks in order to upgrade their ferries. Although many of the basic objectives can feel quite repetitive, you can look forward to over 50 hours' worth of gameplay. You even have the freedom to customize your boat, character, and even your feline companion. In addition to this, players can opt to play as the cat and enjoy more relaxing tasks, as well.
Another notable feature of this adventure game is its ability to let you play in local co-op mode. This allows you to experience the sizable in-game world and the vast seas with your friends. You and your friends can choose to play as either the titular spiritfarer or the feline companion. Either way, you will have to explore numerous platforming levels in order to provide spirits with their needs.
More to explore in the afterlife
While certain tasks can feel monotonous over time, Spiritfarer offers more in terms of world-building and story-weaving. With numerous characters to interact with and an unlimited number of ways to customize your boat and character, there’s no shortage of activities available for you to do in this stunning adventure game. You can even experience the game in two different ways as either the main character or its companion.
