Description

About the Game

Etherborn is an elegant leap in the gravity-puzzle genre; an environmental puzzle platformer built on exploring and understanding gravity-shifting structures.

You are a voiceless being that has just been born into a world where a bodiless voice awaits your arrival. As your first thoughts emerge, you realise your journey has just begun. You must reach this ethereal voice to fully understand your own existence.

In this world, the laws of physics behave in a way that will bend your imagination. You experience gravity perpendicular to the surface you are standing on, allowing for creative exploration possibilities in environments carefully crafted as navigation-based puzzles.

Travel through beautiful and exotic sceneries where each level is an organic puzzle that you need to explore, manipulate and shift your gravity on in order to decipher the way forward.



This game is best played with a gamepad.

Etherborn is available in these languages: English (audio and text), Spanish (audio and text), Catalan (audio and text), German (text), French (text), Italian (text), Russian (text), Japanese (text), Simplified Chinese (text), Korean (text).

It's a meh game overall, but for a game where perspective is key, they don't let you control the camera? Pros and Cons: +Interesting puzzle idea, playing off perspective and orientation -Can't control the camera in any

Rating:5/10 Completion difficulty:3/10 I'm conflicted on this game. It looks pretty good. The gameplay is decent, and you'll have an acceptable game during the game's short runtime. However, it asks you to clear it

Etherborn is a handheld (Nintendo Switch)/console game that's also been put on Steam as a bit of an afterthought, as it's very much designed for the handheld/console gaming audience. It's one of those lame "platformers"

The visuals are nice but I got bored before I even finished the final level ... of only 4 levels. I got this game cheap and it still feels like a waste of time. It's one of those puzzle games where someone is very

Short puzzle platformer that does not overstay it's welcome. The music is nice and relaxing to compliment the art style. Total play time is about 4 hours if you do new game +. Would recommend if you want a game to spend
