According to the game's narrative, two players are twins with special powers granted to them by the anaconda called Yube.
Players have to overcome a series of challenges relating to animals, plants, and spirits of the forest to become a healer and a master of arts. At one stage, gamers face an epic battle with a giant snake, BBC notes.

Huni Kuin: The Way of the Snake will be available for download on PC and Mac beginning in April 2016.
