FAQ

Who is the witch in Hela?

A kind witch who has protected the forest and its creatures for generations. She is growing ill, which is why the mouse must act.

Do I play as the witch?

No. You play as one of her smallest familiars, a brave little mouse with a magical Froggy backpack.

Is Hela sad?

It is a heartfelt adventure about care and courage, but the official material emphasizes kindness, small moments and wonder rather than grief. The witch’s illness is the setup, not necessarily the tone of every scene.
