A Journey Through the Arctic
Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna) is an atmospheric puzzle platformer that follows Nuna and Fox as they search for the source of an eternal blizzard threatening their survival. The game was developed in collaboration with the Iñupiat, an Alaska Native people, and is drawn from a traditional story shared across generations. You will guide the pair through frozen tundra, leap across treacherous ice floes, swim through underwater caverns, and face enemies both strange and familiar. The narrative is narrated by a master storyteller in the spoken Iñupiaq language, and you will meet legendary characters from Iñupiaq stories along the way.
Playing Together
You can guide both characters in single-player mode, switching between Nuna and Fox at any time with one button press, or play side by side in local co-op mode with a friend. Each companion has unique skills you must rely on to succeed. Nuna can climb ladders and ropes, move heavy obstacles, and throw her bola at targets to solve puzzles. Fox can fit through small areas Nuna cannot reach, scramble up walls, and jump to great heights. The game also supports Remote Play Together.
Before You Start
Local co-op play requires at least one Xbox 360 or equivalent game controller. As you explore, you can unlock over 30 minutes of video interviews where elders, storytellers, and other members of the Alaska Native community share stories and wisdom about their culture, values, and the Arctic world. Nearly 40 Alaska Native elders, storytellers, and community members contributed to the making of the game.
