Developed by Piccolo Studio and Published by Untold Tales and Techland, Arise: A Simple Story released for Playstation 4, MS Windows and Xbox One on December 3rd, 2019 and for the Nintendo Switch on April 28th, 2022, Arise: A Simple story is a Single-player platformer with puzzle elements that make up much of the gameplay, with the ability to fast-forward or rewind time in order to solve certain environmental puzzles so you can navigate different parts of levels.

You play as an elder tribesman who has passed on to the afterlife, and his memories make up the focus of the levels. The art style is beautiful, the level design is smart, and the storyline as you navigate through it is one that resonates on so many levels. A second player can also join in to help you out by controlling the time element as you navigate the levels.

For those that are Nintendo Switch gamers, there is content exclusive to that platform, such as: Gyroscope Functionality, Custom Photo Mode, a one-hundred-page digital artbook and the original digital soundtrack available for download.

Disclosure: I received a free review copy from the publishers via Lurkit.com, thank you so much.
