Yono and the celestial elephants walkthrough how to#
The Mekani meanwhile grapple with how to change from simplistic machines built for one purpose to beings with free will and no predetermined roles deciding their fates. The Bonewights are all too happy to share their philosophies about death and life, having completely abandoned most concepts of materialism and time to the point they don’t mind decades spent doing nothing and have no interesting in owning property. Across the game you can collect letters of the alphabet that let you unlock the lore of the previous celestial elephants and their accomplishments, and your adventure takes you to places like the graveyard where the undead Bonewights live and the fledgling port town of the sentient Mekani robots. In this cute game where you play as an elephant shaped like a little plastic figurine, a surprising amount of effort was put into giving the world a layer of depth that makes the actual puzzle solving feel insignificant by comparison. Luckily, this young elephant is eager to assist, but he does soon begin to feel the crushing weight of his responsibilities as the requests go from simple things like finding objects for people to trying to prevent voting fraud, curing a blight that has lead to new members of a species no longer being born, and attempting to negotiate the power disparity in the kingdom. Previous elephants had intervened in wars, prevented tidal waves from flooding the land, brought incredible knowledge to the people, and so much more, and the moment the world sees an elephant has appeared once again, they begin to place all their burdens on the young Yono. Yono is the latest in a long line of elephants that may go back further than even recorded history, but coming into the world after so many of his predecessors has left a big weight on his shoulders.
Instead, once every 1000 years, an elephant is born and tumbles down from the stars, these divine creatures having an inherent desire to help the people of the world with whatever problems they may be facing. In this game world, elephants aren’t the large grey animals that roam the African savanna like we know them. However, to my surprise, the best part of Yono and the Celestial Elephants turned out to be its world-building. It certainly had a cute look to it as well, but most puzzle games focus on their gameplay to the point some don’t even bother with a plot. When I started playing the puzzle adventure Yono and the Celestial Elephants, I expected, quite reasonably I feel, that the puzzles would be the game’s main appeal.
