Kena Bridge Of Spirits is gorgeous in motion and has some beautiful Pixar-esque cutscenes. But, the adorable and effective little army of fluff balls, The Rot, are the standout of Kena. RPS guides editor Ollie Toms has rinsed the game pre-release, so I wanted to get him on to chat to me about it. Listen to our Kena Bridge Of Spirits review chat over the top of this Kena Bridge Of Spirits gameplay to hear Ollie talk about his favourite thing in the entire game.

As Ollie mentions in our Kena review chat, The Rot are such a charming lot. As you can see in this Kena gameplay, even when they’re just standing around you, they’re full of life and character. Developer Ember Lab began life as an animation studio, and that’s crystal clear when you see The Rot.

The Kena Bridge Of Spirits Rot aren’t all about being idle, though. They’re here to help, as you can see in our Kena Bridge Of Spirits PC gameplay. Firstly, they can be an aggressive lot when you need them to be. They can bonk on the heads of enemies, tie them up, or they can transform into a powerful blobby snake. Handy.

The Rot is also good for environmental puzzles, as you can see in our Kena The Bridge Of Spirits footage. They’ll move heavy blocks for you, they’ll pick up statues, they’ll clear areas of corruption: these little things are a Spirit Guide’s dream.

If you've enjoyed this Kena PC gameplay and our Kena Bridge Of Spirits PC review chat (if you're playing on console, just consider this a Kena Bridge Of Spirits PS5 review chat), then why not have a read of RPS’ written Kena Bridge Of Spirits review on RockPaperShotgun.com (https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/kena-bridge-of-spirits-review). Also, be sure to check out all of Ollie’s terrific guides on the game, too (https://preview.rockpapershotgun.com/kena-bridge-of-spirits-tips)

My Favourite Thing In... is a video series where Colm chats to one of the lovely RPS writers about their absolute favourite thing in a spang new video game they’ve been playing. In some cases, the writer will have to think long and hard about their choice, because the game they’ve been playing mightn’t be that great, while better games will have multiple things for them to pick.
