Yes, there were times when I hoped for a little more direction in solving puzzles. It’s delicious eye candy with a satisfyingly chewy center. Don’t skip on the game just because you don’t have a 4K display yet.Įxploring Iceland as a furry fox friend has been a real treat. That said, the game still looks amazing on a regular old TV. For a five-ish six hour game if you’re targeting a perfect trophy haul, I spent that much time in my first session being an amateur wildlife photographer. And it looks amazing! No lie, I have spent more time exploring and searching out primo photo locations to take snapshots than actually playing the game.

An added bonus here are the skin rewards. This literal fetch quest not only provides some adorable fox carrying big stick pictures but is a great way to appreciate all the nooks and crannies. Spirit of the North asks you to retrieve staves strewn about each chapter and return them to the fallen shamans who once used them. Spirit of the North Enhanced Edition Review – Of Westfjords and Northern LightsĮvery game needs side quests. When I finally did, I let the fox curl up into a ball while I paused the game and walked away for a good ten minutes. I’d always seem to reach the goal with only a couple of seconds and never get the Bark release to succeed. Where this really became an issue was a puzzle in which I had to dash in spirit form to a target and then hold Circle to clear the object. After a few times of not holding it long enough, I now keep it pressed for at least thirty seconds (yes, I count them in my head). My issue here is that there is no real indicator as to how long to hold Circle.

The Spirit Bark asks the player to hold down Circle until the energy releases to clear certain obstructions. Special spirit abilities have been a little touchy for me. New elements are introduced over time, such as collecting essence to light stones. Many of the puzzles are easily solved by paying attention to the environment or following the spirit guide.

Puzzle solving in this game can be a little hit or miss. Need to solve an obelisk puzzle by rotating panels? Bark. Want to collect essence from some blooming flowers? Bark. Neither my fox nor the guide prattle on with needless words when necessary, all I need to do is bark. A large part of Spirit of the North‘s strength is in that very fact. In fact, sometimes I absolutely love not having a voice chattering on and telling me what to do. UGH!! It's a lot of money for cards that I'm very unhappy with.I'm sad to report.I’m no stranger to narration-less games. The current cards are light blue, which is a color I don't like, versus aqua which the previous box was. When they finally arrived, I was very disappointed that the color was way off! The color posted from my last box to this current box, says its the same but it's not. The whole process took way too long and was very frustrating. Then I had to approve everything online and I had difficulty getting that to you. I waited for that and finally had to contact my web designer myself. Then there was the issue of permission to release artwork from the web designer to your company. After my initial call for a reorder, I followed up to find that the person was out of the office and nothing had been started. When trying to reorder business cards, I found a lack of communication with the associates I spoke to on the phone.
