Game

Information / Synopsis

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.

Our Review

It is wonderful to run through the colorful world it offers while listening to its calm soundtrack and playing with the changes of gravity. There is a huge work in the design of the levels, which will give us more of a headache. Its main flaw is that it ends when we are enjoying it the most, leaving the bittersweet feeling that a great idea has been wasted. If we forgive its short duration, we will enjoy the most beautiful and intense experiences of the year.
