Ori and the Blind Forest is beautiful. It’s pretty rare that a game is so jaw-droppingly gorgeous that it’s the appearance, rather than the mechanics that lay beneath, that takes precedence. Ori is just that wonderful to look at. That says a lot, given the near perfection that lines the interior of what the game has to offer....

Ori and the Blind Forest doesn’t make much of an effort to complicate its combat. It works off of a one-button-press system that allows players to tap away until your foe’s health has been exhausted. There are various upgrades available to Ori, a small “guardian spirit”, but most of the combat related ones (which occupy one of three skill branches) simply strengthen your power. It’s the first design choice that really sticks out: the game never intends for you to agonize over its combat. Instead, it makes it all about the rapid and intricately designed platforming.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps reinforces that theme of a wider, living world with a menagerie of creatures to fight, big and small: dive-bombing mosquitos, slugs that spit caustic goo, dangling spiders, piranhas, spiky slimes, leaping elemental mantis-things, and hulking decay-touched bruisers with massive clubs kept me on my toes in every new place I visited. There’s a healthy bestiary to test your mettle.

But alongside these many enemies, friendly woodland critters and massive animal guardians hide and thrive in each area, ready to make your acquaintance. These non-player characters pop up frequently, telling you about their home lives, their current predicaments, the changes happening to the world at large, and tidbits of information concerning Ori’s grand adventure. Often, these short conversations come with requests which serve as simple side quests to keep you invested in the here and now. You might be asked to find a lost acorn in a cave, or check on some family members in a faraway region, or hear a useful rumor about a shrine that’s then marked on your map to investigate later.

Very cool and interesting game!
The game lasts for several hours (I went through it all in 2 hours)
Everything happens in the woods. Where the little girl and her uncle live. At first, the game needs to repair a few things, then the protagonist finds a portal to the world of dreams ....
During this time, his little girl wakes up, who does not understand where her uncle is, and goes on a journey with him.
At that point, the protagonist must go through a lot of dangerous tests, then he falls into an evil monster that does not allow the character to return!
The little girl rescuing her uncle is being tested as well. For the rest, when she saved it, there is no going back. The characters need to find another way out, in a very short time they finally return home and the game ends.

This is a very cool game where a tiny man enters the big world constantly seeing a ghost in front of him. First, the game needs to collect tools that will then come in handy on a trip around the world. Then the hero gets into the woods. Sometimes he meets strange people also need to overcome various obstacles in the form of stone and hay. Later, the protagonist enters a mysterious place in the form of a temple. After a long journey, he finally reaches the crossroads (here the main road of the hero is chosen, which he will follow all the time)
The next biome is the mountains that are covered with ice. Here ends the long and interesting journey of the protagonist!
Then he enters the world where he lives, entering the house and there the game ends
Good , interesting and chill game!
