only slight negative is the combat, fixed in the sequel

Wonderful Metroidvania with some of the best movement I've seen in the genre (special shoutout to the Bash mechanic, what an elegant piece of design). Combining its killer pace and length with incredible visuals, music and a beautiful story, it's nor surprising to see how much this game ahs stuck with people long after its release. I would say that the combat is weakest part of the game, but apparently that got addressed in the sequel so now I'm more excited to try it out.

A gorgeous platforming-heavy metroidvania with great visuals and a fantastic soundtrack. At times it was hard to keep track of all the glowing blobs on screen, but the game is so easy on "normal" that it really didn't matter. The only really aggravating parts were the escape sequences, which don't give you very much time to react to new obstacles and require mostly trial-and-error memorization. Fortunately they are quite brief, and most of the platforming is incredibly satisfying. Personally I felt quite let down by a couple of story moments, but the narrative vibe is still warm and fuzzy regardless.

Even though the escape sequences can be extremely frustrating, this game is amazing. The floatiness really fits the vibe, and it was a great milder introduction to the metroidvania genre. The combat isn't anything complex, but I found it fitting and enjoyable. The story is touching and I still listen to the soundtrack every now and then.

Ori is a fantastic adventure with smooth animations, sharp gameplay, and a gripping narrative.


Il gameplay da dipendenza, e lo stile grafico è molto particolare. Mi sono divertito a giocarlo e non vedo l'ora di provare il prossimo

Its a good short game. Completed 100 percent of the game.
Also the movement was quite different from hollow knight which was a game I was playing just before this.

Great story driven 2d platformer game.

Seria melhor se focassem em ser um plataforma estilo Rayman, terem optado por metroidvania não foi a melhor decisão. Como plataforma é fodao e como metroidvania é fraco.

Absolutely breathtaking game
Doesn't have much of a story but the gameplay is incredibly fun
Catapulting myself off steep cliffs once more

Everyone was right, this one is a perfect masterpiece. Not much in terms of a long or complicated story, but it does visual storytelling so well that you don't need much writing or dialogue. The game also played extremely well, with no technical issues at all. The game mechanics themselves are super creative and the game has you use your abilities in a variety of ways. Super enjoyable from start to finish. Definitely recommend it if you haven't played before.
