Spirit of the North is a single-player 3rd-person adventure game inspired by the breath-taking and mysterious landscapes of Iceland. The story takes root from various pieces of Nordic folklore.

Traverse tundra, glaciers, and mountainsides as you follow a foreboding scarlet trail that paints the sky.

Breathe in your surroundings to solve various puzzles and speculate the meaning of a lost ancient civilization. With the help of your new companion, shed light on the ruins of the past and overcome obstacles.

Key Features:

• Make your way across stunning landscapes, on an emotionally stirring journey.
• Solve environmental puzzles to change the world around you, using ancient powers bestowed upon you by the guardian of the Northern Lights.
• Follow the mysterious Spirit Fox across a land left in ruin as you discover more about a lost civilization.
