Feb. 2025

To start this heartfelt review, I must share that I am someone who has spent countless hours immersed in the world of video games and I can without doubt say that the Ori franchise has completely stolen my heart. There are games that impress with their mechanics or their visuals, but Ori does something truly astonishing. From the very first moment I stepped into the breathtaking world, I felt like I was in the presence of something extraordinary. The art is not just beautiful—it’s transcendent. The flow of the gameplay is seamless, and each challenge feels rewarding in ways few games manage to achieve. But what truly sets Ori apart, above everything else, is its story. The emotional depth of these games is unlike anything I've ever encountered. Will of the Wisps took everything I loved about the first game and pushed it further, deepening the world of these creatures and their struggles. It’s not just a tale of adventure or survival.. it’s a story about hope, loss, and finding strength in the darkest of times. There were moments in the game where I was brought to tears, not because of a grand plot twist or a tragic death, but because of the quiet, tender moments that speak to something deeply human within all of us. Playing through the Ori games has been a journey… one that I’ll surely never forget. I’m not exaggerating when I say this franchise is now firmly in my top three of all time. It’s hard to put into words just how much this game means to me. It’s more than just a game; it’s a reflection of what it means to persevere, to face adversity, and to grow. And as cheesy as it may sound, it’s made me a better person, reminding me of the importance of empathy and the beauty of persistence. I feel so incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience this world, to be part of the journey that Moon Studios crafted with such care and love. Thank you, Moon Studios, for creating something that’s not just a game, but a masterpiece. Your work has made a profound impact on me, and for that, I will be forever grateful.

First and foremost: if you haven't played the Ori franchise yet, just go for it without a second thought! Ori is one of those games that I have cherished over the years, and my love for it has never faded. It’s a tremendous honor to have these games in my library, and I finally got around to purchasing them! I can’t recall ever feeling like a game is more like a beautiful animated movie than when I play Ori. It’s a unique experience that I haven’t encountered anywhere else. The story told here has partially changed my worldview, and I truly appreciate the impact Ori has had on my personal growth. One distinctive feature of these games is that whenever I feel disillusioned with life, they restore my faith in the world and the people in it. It’s as if I begin to see that spark of innocence again, which seems to fade away with time, but Ori shows me that it’s still very much alive.

This game is absolutely stunning, in terms of everythingg..... The graphics are so beautiful, every scene feels like a piece of art... The environments are packed with detail, making the world feel alive.. The soundtrack is impressive, adding layers of emotion to the journey.. That prologue was just so good literally best intro to the game... It’s a perfect mix of beauty and depth... It’s clear that the devs didn’t just want to make a game, they wanted to create an experience that stays with us long after playing this game..
