5/5 ★ – ohmightyqueen's review of Ori and the Will of the Wisps.

Playtime: 12 hours This game has no right being as good as it is. Emotional within the first ten minutes, carrying on throughout the game with its very short cut scenes but somehow it just hits so deep! It was, for me at least, equal parts beautiful, amazing, stunning and stressful as fuck, but my god does it feel like it accomplishment completing it. I actually found the first one harder and this one complements it so well. The music is unbelievable and fits so well with the action and slower parts. I’ve never had to think so hard with a game using every single button imaginable at once but it flows so well. The gameplay is probably the smoothest I’ve ever played and it has proudly taken 1st place as my favourite 2D game of all time.
