Ling and the Corrupted Hollow is a third-person puzzle-platforming game where players use adorable animal spirits to explore the beautiful Hollow Woods. Possess and control the world around as you search for the soul shards to cleanse the corrupted Tree and restore balance to your home.
Explore the beautiful three different realms to discover the hidden story of the Hollow Woods.
Each Level is set across three themes: the mystical, overgrown vegetation that will have you zig-zagging across the hostile flowers of the “Infested Garden”. Jump across the Clashing tides of the old settlements of “The Corrupted Waters”. Climb your way to the source of the corruption, knocking boulders to build your own path in the “Primordial Shrine”.
Use your spirits to control the world around with possession
Use spirits of the world to possess a variety of objects across The Hollow Woods and manipulate the movement, while also allowing you to run and jump across different platforms and not lose your soul to the corrupted waters that plague the hollow woods.
Platform and solve puzzles across the dangerous corruption that plagues the Hollow woods
Use Ling’s agility with a variety of movement abilities to navigate across the corruption that is infested in all the realms and cleanse your home to restore it to the once-natural home you knew.
