Spirit of Diwata

Find the spirit in each other.

Spirit of Diwata is a co-op JRPG where you heal creatures. Travel together through an Asian fantasy world drawn from Buddhist traditions of care and offering. Your instrument calms the creatures and plants around you. Play on one shared screen, in the same room or across the world.

Calm creatures by playing an instrument. Creatures nearby get better when they hear you.

Angry creatures don't know any better, so they'll attack you when you get close. Each has their own patterns, and there's time to get out of the way.

When you fully calm a creature, bring it to a spirit house to make a musical bond. From then on, you can call on its spirit to help you along the way.

Healing fills a harmony bar you all share. Use combo moves, or heal at the same time, to calm creatures quicker. Healing this way also brings everyone closer.

Every creature has one of five elements, and your instrument plays the element of the friend you've bonded with. The world reacts to each element in its own way, which you can use to solve puzzles.

Designed to ease a child, a parent, a grandparent, or anyone into using a controller, actions are as simple as holding a button and tapping. More seasoned players can learn advanced moves, like dodging and luring creatures away.

Plants and creatures only change as you move through areas, so there's no pressure to be efficient. There's plenty to enjoy, even just watching the waves crash onto the shore.

Meditate to reach the Inner Garden, a quiet space you can share with others. Rest, and decorate it until it feels like a spiritual home. Bonded friends talk to you here, and give keepsakes when they're happy.
