Ori and the Blind Forest

This is one of the best video games I've ever played. Beautiful graphics, gameplay, design etc. The soundtrack is really amazing. Awesome puzzles and platforming. Definitely in my top 10. A lot of people don't play platformer games or don't know game developers still make games like this, so they'll probably miss games like this.

I really enjoyed this game. The art style, music and level design are all absolutely great. I don't usually play 2d platformers but this one kept me engaged throughout. I found this both a relaxing and stressful experience because the game has such an ethereal and cute vibe but it's pretty difficult game on normal difficulty (I finished both Sekiro and Elden Ring and I found this one quite hard at times). It's a short indie game with great mechanics which keep you hooked just long enough till the end of the game. After the end there isn't much to do anymore though.

The positives: +Art style +Music +Interesting and well-dispersed mechanics +Nice little story +Memorable and fun experience

The negatives: -Too many similarly colored items on screen which is very confusing and hard to distinguish sometimes.

-Some very annoying inconsistensies in difficulty and telling the player which surfaces are solid or harmful and just general consistency issues.

-Bossfights were kind of lame if there really were any; so many great mechanics so such a shame they are not properly tested in the end with a cool fight or something.

-The music is very dramatic and sometimes this sort of diminishes the weight of the important story moments: the music always sounds like you are in the final cutscene or bossfight.

Even making a video game, you should have the mind of craftsmen, because the video game is considered as "the ninth art".

Brilliant graphics, beautiful music, logical plots, the think of freedom!

Finally, I discovered that the spirit tree is the true bad man...

First of all. I am not a 2D guy and I have never played a metroid vania game until now. (Played for the first time in 2023 on Series X)

This game blew me away. I could hardly put the controller down. Here were my big positives!

• Best platforming ever. By the end of the game the way all your abilities, attacks, and movements options blend together second by second is masterful.

• Thrilling set pieces.

• Amazing puzzles.

• A perfect original score
• beautiful graphics and art style.

• A touching story told without words.

• Fun enemy design.

• Good progression system.

• fun exploration
• perfect level design
• many collectibles!

• fun leaderboards etc.

• Great achievements!

This game is a most play, it is perfect!

The gameplay is fantastic, the graphics are beautiful and everything's guided by a well thought-out, not too complicated story. All adds up to an atmospheric and enticing game, which I have played through three times now.

Overall a wholesome, gorgeous game.

10/10
