Spirit Island
Defend your island as ancient spirits — cooperatively, asymmetrically.

Experienced gamers who want the deepest cooperative challenge available.
Not for you if…
You're new to heavy games or want a relaxed cooperative experience.
Vibe's take
Cerebral, thematic, endlessly complex.
About this game
Flip the colonization narrative: you are the island spirits, and you're fighting back. Each spirit plays completely differently — some burn, some drown, some haunt — and the synergies between them are endlessly fascinating. The most sophisticated cooperative game ever made, and it rewards every hour you put into it.
