Description

A worldwide App Store Editors’ Choice. “Stunningly poignant - and quite brilliant. 10/10.” - Eurogamer

“Ki” is the Iñupiaq word for “Let’s Go!”, and now you can play the award-winning indie hit on the go with Never Alone: Ki Edition.

Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna) is an atmospheric puzzle platformer developed in collaboration with the Iñupiat, an Alaska Native people, drawn from a traditional story that has been shared across the generations. Experience the epic journey of Nuna and Fox as they search for the source of an eternal blizzard that threatens the survival of everything they have ever known.

Guide both characters as you trek through frozen tundra, leap across treacherous ice floes, swim through underwater caverns and face enemies both strange and familiar.

On over 75 "Best of 2014" lists and winner of "Best Debut Game" at the 2015 BAFTA Games Awards as well as "Game of the Year" and "Most Significant Impact" at the 2015 Games for Change Awards, nearly 40 Alaska Native elders, storytellers and community members contributed to the making of Never Alone.

You'll explore awe-inspiring environments, perform heroic deeds and meet legendary characters from Iñupiaq stories — all narrated by a master storyteller in the spoken Iñupiaq language.

Features

Reimagined for mobile -- Never Alone: Ki Edition includes every level and all the excitement of the original game enjoyed by millions of PC and console players around the world. We’ve updated the game for mobile devices, adding brand-new touch controls, menus and hints along with optimized graphics and AI that bring the beauty of Never Alone’s ethereal, arctic environments to phones and tablets.

Play as both Nuna and Fox — switch between the two companions at any time as you rely on the unique skills of each character to succeed in your quest. Nuna can climb ladders and ropes, move heavy obstacles, and throw her bola at targets to solve puzzles. Fox can fit through small areas that Nuna can't reach, scramble up walls, and jump to great heights.

Explore the harsh world of the Arctic — run under, through, and atop the unstable structures of an abandoned coastal village. Explore the eerily quiet treetops of a mysterious, frozen forest. Brave the fierce winds of the eternal blizzard. Only with the aid of Helping Spirits will Nuna and Fox have any chance of survival in a land where survival seems impossible.

Unlock fascinating video insights — Elders, storytellers, and other members of the Alaska Native community share stories and wisdom about their culture, values and the amazing Arctic world encountered by players in over 30 minutes of interviews.

Customizable controls — Adjust the sensitivity or select an alternate layout for the game’s onscreen controls. For those who prefer a physical controller, the game also supports MFi devices.

Support for 17 languages — Chinese (Simplified), Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Spanish (European/Latin America) and Swedish.

Good game.

It's a good rather than amazing platform game with some interesting interplay between the 2 characters you control, the controls could be improved but you soon get used to them. It's a visual and audio feast of a game with a lovely atmosphere and art style to it, hidden objects within the levels offer you short video clips that give you insights into Alaskan culture and the story is based on a folk tale of these people. I enjoyed it and would recommend it, it ran well on an iPad mini 2 but I sense anything with less grunt than that might struggle if that helps.

Nice game but dreadful controls!

This is graphically a very good game and adds some interesting gameplay (e.g. controlling two characters and interacting with 'spirits') to what is basically a standard platform game.

However, the controls in this game are awful! Virtual joysticks don't work well in any games that use them, but in this game the virtual joystick 'floats' during use as well (when you move the 'stick' too far the whole joystick repositions itself). This is extremely frustrating! I actually got so annoyed that I gave up after completing about 80% of the game. (After completing this much of the game you'd think I'd persevere, but no, the controls just get to you!)

Stunning game

This is great platform game where you need to swap between the Snow Fox and Girl in order to progress through the challenging but by no means impossible levels. The back story is nice but what makes this is the super stunning graphics! To the previous person who said the controls don't work, they work perfectly! You have to hold and drag the virtual joystick, not tap it! Great game and definitely worth a purchase!
