About this game



Shadow’s Grove is an emotionally-driven action adventure game following the journey of Astrid, a young spirit guide struggling to accept the loss of her lifelong companion, Eri. As she navigates the Valley of Souls, Eri’s fading presence becomes invaluable to her as the two rely on one another to uncover new paths and confront powerful spirits. But, the longer Astrid remains in the afterlife, the clearer the truth becomes to her and Eri: that moving forward may mean letting go.

In this journey, you’ll guide Astrid through a world brimming with heart and mystery, uncovering the true nature of the afterlife while forging an unbreakable bond with Eri.



  • Traverse a range of hand-crafted, otherworldly environments while carefully shifting between human and wolf form
  • Solve environmental puzzles to forge a path through the malleable fabric of the afterlife
  • Vanquish corrupted spirits using the collaborative power of Astrid’s magic and Eri’s strength
  • Immerse yourself in the rich, emotional soundtrack that deepens the narrative of loss, connection, and discovery
