A great, brief Zelda-inspired gameplay experience that is easy to pick up and sink a few hours into for a fulfilling journey that doesn't overstay its welcome.

Arietta of Spirits is a simple adventure game with a good heart. If you’re looking for a game to complete for that weekend away this might just be the one to keep you busy. It’s doesn’t that pushes the boundaries of the genre but what is on offer here is fun. Plus this has an Otter spirit in it, what’s not to love? Need to meditate on this game? There is also a free demo available on the eShop.

If you're a pixel enthusiast and enjoy classic games like the Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, you're sure to love Arietta of Spirits. It has an awesome heartwarming story and tries to be like a classic SNES adventure game and it succeeds well at doing so.

While it may be a little on the short side, Arietta of Spirits is an enjoyable experience. Overall, there's not much to fault here - an original story, beautiful visuals, fitting soundtrack and engaging gameplay. What it lacks in length and replayability, it makes up for with it's charm and solid execution.

Dealing with delicate themes, Arietta of Spirits has a lot of charisma, especially considering its welcoming qualities. Among the multiple dimensions inhabited by spirits and humans, the journey may not be deep in terms of combat, but it is attractive for its sensitivity. In the company of Ari and Arco, it's easy to enjoy the simple adventure and the moving narrative.
