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 beautifulβ€”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.

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..

Beautiful game just like Blind Forest, the story, visual and music are very very amazing. There are some very tedious parts and fights that want to makes me throw my controller, but maybe just like they said, gotta Git Gud. 11/10 would cry again

I bought Ori and the Blind Forest + Ori and the Will of the Wisps in sale after I played No Rest For The Wicked, because I wanted to taste more from Moon studios and I never got my hands on Ori before. I must say that it was a pleasant surprise for me to find out how good these games are. Ori and the Will of the Wisps does everything better than the first one. The story is even more emotive, the gameplay is smooth, the graphics are much better, there is bigger variety in locations, there are more interesting abilities etc... Pros: many things will be compared to the first one: + Story is appealing, emotive, nicely told and I cried... a lot. + Soundtrack hits the spots even more than in the first Ori. + Visuals are much better smoother and there is much bigger color palete. + Unlike the first one, gameplay here feels nice and smooth from start to end. + There is even more abilities than in the first Ori and you have active ones and passive ones, so you can play in various styles and you can mix and match. + There is actual combat (nothing big, but certainly better than in the first Ori). + Puzzles are more interesting and harder than in the first Ori. + Locations are distinct and vibrant and just pleasure for eyes. Cons: - You can call me crazy, but I don't have a single point to criticize on Ori and the Will of the Wisps. This game took a special place in my heart as the best puzzle platformer that I've ever played. I enjoyed every second of it and now I'm just sad that the journey is at the end. I give Ori and the Will of the Wisps 10/10 in the matter of platformers.
