Wield the dance of the Shaman in a gorgeous story-driven action-exploration game inspired by Bantu tales.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Reminiscent of The Last Case of Benedict Fox, Tales of Kenzera: ZAU feels like 2024's definitive example of mismanaging Metroidvania 101 tenets. And it's a shame to be that harsh when its inspiration feels like a wonderful antidote to the soulless company (EA) backing it and the commercialized entity (TGA) which first advertised it. Through an impassioned sense of grief, Abubakar Salim wanted to craft a story that authentically tries to wrestle with those same feelings. That's a great achievement of the medium as a potential creative outlet. Unfortunately, though, it's saddled to a haphazardly-designed game that falls short of sustaining that enthusiasm and squaring up against its contemporaries."
Antony writes: "We talk with composer Nainita Desai on how she poured grief and acceptance into Tales of Kenzera: ZAU's stirring soundtrack."
"Tales of Kenzera: Zau is a light Metroidvania that would bring a tear to a glass eye - a personal and moving tale in a stunning game world."

Nice. I'll give it a try.
Oh damn cool I planned on buying this on Pc but I’ll give it a run and if I love it I’ll buy it to have it on PC after
This game looks great!
I'm on it.
I'm just happy this is going to all platforms, but definitely a good get.
Hmmm. I already preordered this and am a mid tier PS Plus member. Wonder if they’ll offer me a refund option. Don’t really care if not, small team, don’t mind supporting them. Just curious.
