"In Icarian: Kindred Spirits, you take on the role of Nyx, a winged girl from the divine realm of Olympus in Ancient Greece. Your human friend, Icarus, has mysteriously disappeared and you must travel through the scorched and derelict lands in this side-scrolling platformer to find and save him. Use puzzling skills and dexterity to overcome obstacles and fast reflexes to vanquish enemies - and you may succeed in your quest......

Luckily, you receive divine help from the gods of Ancient Greece during your journey and are bestowed with various powers as you search though the wastes. You can control all the action as a lone hero or tackle the adventure with a friend. One of you plays as Nyx, while the other controls the divine powers on a second Wii Remote. So why not share the experience? You’ll need great co-ordination and impeccable teamwork to make it through this mythical mission."
