In this adventure based on
Disney's *Brother Bear*, you play as Kenai, a teenager magically transformed into a bear to learn the true meaning of balance and brotherhood. Guided by the energetic cub Koda, you must navigate a perilous journey to the mystical meeting place of the Northern Lights. Along the way, you will overcome physical challenges and emotional growth to regain your human form.
The Legend of the Northern Lights
Long ago, when the Earth was young and ice still covered the land, the Great Spirits of the Northern Lights wielded the power of transformation. During this time, man and animal lived on equal terms, competing for land and food.
In Disney's *Brother Bear*, Kenai is a headstrong teenager who does not understand the need for balance in nature. Driven by emotion after losing his oldest brother to a bear, he seeks revenge. The Great Spirits intervene and help Kenai learn about balance by miraculously transforming him into a bear.
Koda & Kenai
Now that Kenai is a bear, he is hunted by his remaining brother, Denahi. Before Denahi can track Kenai down, he must make it to the mystical place where the lights meet the Earth. This is the home of the Great Spirits, the only place where he can regain his human form.
Not knowing the way himself, Kenai enlists the help of a pesky cub named Koda. Over the course of his perilous journey with Koda, Kenai is forced to question everything he knows about the meaning of brotherhood.
Ultimately, he realizes that his physical transformation from a man to a bear is insignificant compared to the change that has occurred within himself.
