I'm rewriting this review again because this game simply deserves a detailed review.
I would also like to address this review to everyone who hasn't played the Ori series yet.

The Ori series is one of my absolute favorites.
It feels like Disney and Nintendo came together to create this masterpiece
The combination of graphics, music, story and gameplay makes this game an absolute masterpiece.

The atmosphere in this game is simply indescribable.
Every time I start this game over again, I can't hold back the tears.

Gameplay:

Ori is a jump n run with a high level of difficulty and a high potential for frustration.
Especially for inexperienced jump n run players, it can be very difficult at the beginning to familiarize yourself with the game system.
I myself died hundreds of times in the first few hours
I also strongly recommend playing with a controller and not a mouse and keyboard.



Pros & Cons

+ Ori has a beautiful world with attention to detail combined with a graphic style that is unique

+ The story is really good and heartwarming

+ The fun of the game continues to increase as more features and abilities become available over time.

+ Music is one of the best ever made for a video game. Soundtrack "Light of the Nibel" is one of my favorite songs of all time

+ Easter eggs (Mario & Zelda :))

- There are 4 areas that you cannot return to later. You don't know exactly at the time (but you suspect it) and unfortunately you can quickly miss the secrets.
Very frustrating for 100% players



I really recommend the entire Ori series to anyone who hasn't played it yet to give it a try. Even if you're not a 2D Jump n Run fan


♡♡♡ There are people who say games are just for little kids etc, but they will never know what "art of gaming " is until they play games like this ♡♡♡

A good game to get your aggression under control xD



Celeste is another masterpiece in 2D Jump n Run history.

The pixel art style and a great soundtrack makes this game very recognizable.


The music in the game is so good, that I played just to listen to the soundtrack.

Yes, the game is very challenging but fair.
It's not an extreme trial and error, because multiple safepoints always give you "safety" in the levels.
This takes away the frustration and increases the fun factor.


A little about the story:

I think it's something completely different. This is more about fighting against yourself than saving the world “again”.
This also somewhat reflects the problems of our current society
Characters and NPC fit well into the game world.


A bit about the gameplay:


+ challenging

+ fair checkpoints

+ quick acclimatization

+ creative puzzle design

+ varied levels with increasing difficulty



- too few skills for Madleine (only Dash)




In my opinion this game is a "must have played" for all Jump n Run players.
This game only costs €1.95 on offer and is worth every cent.
