Hey there! Step right up and welcome to ‘First Play’, a show where I guide you through an exciting upcoming game that’s already ready for you to dive into when this episode airs. Whether it’s Soft Launch, Open Beta, Demo, or something else, you’ll get the opportunity to play games before they officially hit the shelves!

In recent times, a warm ambiance and delightful visuals are enough to grab my focus, and without a doubt, Netflix’s Spirit Crossing manages to stir my curiosity from the very beginning.

As a curious gamer, I find myself stepping into a dreamy realm where human and ethereal entities intertwine. With the once clear boundaries now hazy, I traverse this spirit world, a thrill-seeking wanderer who’s both bewildered and exhilarated by the unknown adventures that await.

Clearly, the visual appeal is captivating enough to hold my interest, and the charming spirits you encounter are merely an added bonus. You might find yourself assisting them in various ways, such as providing a mother ghost with some fresh mushrooms or rescuing a rectangular bear from a bucket (my personal favorite sub-quest thus far).

In the story, it’s clear that the bear plays a significant role because in time, he becomes your cherished roommate and assists you in adorning your simple home with charming knickknacks. It’s fortunate that a storm forced him to take refuge here, leaving me as his unlikely rescuer, and I must admit, his great sense of humor makes the situation even more enjoyable.

In your adventure, you’ll encounter various spirits. Gathering their Spirit Essence is crucial for activating specific game elements within this MMO-like life simulation, and also helps strengthen your friendship ties with them over time.

This place is incredibly delightful, heartwarming, and brimming with positive energy, making it an appealing choice should I find myself stranded across dimensions and lost in another realm.

So, how do you play Spirit Crossing?

Thankfully, anyone can dive into this magical new world thanks to its
ongoing Alpha test
. Of course, you’ll need a Netflix account to join, but after that’s sorted, it’s all a matter of downloading it from Google Play or clicking the Testflight link on iOS.

During my experience, there were occasional glitches like bugs and frozen screens, but they didn’t hinder my enjoyment in the least within this vibrant virtual world.
