PureXbox: "Some games are truly beautiful and lets not waste any time here Never Alone kicks off with the potential to be one of them. Telling tales of the Alaska native Iñupiat people and their folklore, the game is part educational experience, part non-traditional side-scrolling platformer. While one half of that is really well done, the other one comes up wanting. You play as an Iñupiaq girl named Nuna, as she tries to overcome a fire-lobbing monster that has destroyed her village, whilst evading other beasts that threaten to do her harm. Also, theres the small task of finding and stopping the source of the constant blizzard that will prevent the people from hunting, although this goal isn't presented until right before you actually find the source, strangely. Alongside her is an arctic fox companion named simply Fox - which can either being controlled by a co-op player or by yourself, utilising a button-press to switch between the two."
