    It's a very good game. Nice graphics. Naive but good story. The game is interesting and was fun to explore.
    Among the disadvantages is the primitive game design of the locations.

    It's a platforming gem with captivating mechanics, a heartwarming story, and breathtaking art design. The gameplay is challenging but fun. Additionally, emotional narrative and stunning visuals create an unforgettable experience. It's a masterpiece that showcases the best of what gaming can offer.

    Various puzzles, beautiful art, and magnificent music provide a satisfying experience.
    But combat is little boring

    Ori and the Blind Forest es una historia hecha videojuego. Esto puede sonar a que está mal adaptado a este medio. Nada más lejos de la realidad. Ori and the Blind Forest es un videojuego increíble. Aunque sí que se nota algún punto flojo.

    Jugablemente, es genial. Tiene unos controles súper fluidos que a manos de expertos, son una delicia de ver solamente. Esto si lo combinamos con la cantidad ingente de habilidades que se consiguen tanto obligatoriamente como las que se obtienen en el árbol de habilidades, crea un set de movimientos muy amplio en el que puedes hacer auténticas virguerías.

    Con el mapa tengo sentimientos encontrados. Por una parte, me ha gustado, tiene entornos variados, un diseño bastante parecido al de un metroidvania (por su "no linealidad"), muchas secciones plataformeras que aprovechan a la perfección el control tan bueno que tenemos sobre Ori, pero por otra parte, me ha parecido muy lineal para ser un metroidvania. Va llevándote de la mano indicándote dónde está todo y a dónde tienes que ir. Pero en general, es un muy buen mapa.

    Audiovisualmente, es hermoso. Pocos juegos he visto con un soundtrack que pueden hacerte llorar o animarte al mismo tiempo. Tiene un montón de temas súper épicos que llegan al corazón y quiero dar mi enhorabuena a la orquesta dedicada al OST del juego. Y visualmente es una delicia. Es un juego precioso, con un montón de colores, con diseños de personajes y lugares espectaculares... Podría pasarme horas diciendo lo bueno que es en este aspecto.

    Y la historia es muy buena. Lo que menciono al principio de la reseña de "una historia hecha videojuego" se nota. Se centra mucho en temas como el amor padre-hijo, el sacrificio y la lealtad, creando una trama con momentos muy trágicos que pueden hacer llorar.

    En conclusión, Ori and the Blind Forest es un juegazo que por su duración (unas 7,5 horas en mi caso) se te puede hacer mi caro, pero créeme que merece completamente la pena. Recomendadísimo.    … Expand

Pero en general, dejando a un lado todo lo malo es muy muy buen juego: buen apartado gráfico y artístico, muy intuitivo, mecánicas innovadoras, te engancha y hace seguir jugando, buena banda sonora y es muy divertido a partir de las 2 primeras horas de juego. A medida que avanzas, el combate y el desplazamiento se vuelven más interesantes y difíciles de dominar. La historia es muy buena pero quizás demasiado ñoña. A grandes rasgos es un grandísimo juego y a cualquiera que le guste la estética o el género le va a encantar (como es mi caso). Estoy seguro de que me jugaré la secuela.… Expand

    This game feels like a fairy tale, at first you can't even believe it exists on your screen right here and now. The music, the effects, the art, just something that is impossible to describe with any words, it must be seen and admired.

    The gameplay is no less wonderful, a huge number of mechanics that gradually open up on the passage, so even at the very end of the game will entertain you with the new, and you can go through some locations have a completely new way :)

    Played calmly and on the keyboard, the game is actually not as difficult as it is described by some, certainly not more difficult than many of some platformers, I think almost the easiest in its genre, just a little patience and everything will turn out. Difficulties are only in some moments on the bosses, but no more than that, and the great pleasure when after 10 attempts all come out perfectly.

    For all fans of platformers absolutely recommended!    … Expand

    Artisticamente una pasaday muy divertido. Un juego que sabe bajar el ritmo frenetito de la vida. Muy divertido y con una curva de aprendizaje perfecta. Se hace corto de lo divertido que es. Apenas pesa lo dificil que es en algunas partes.

    Artstyle is very distinct and still holds up to this day despite being a 2015 game. combat is a bit lackluster (lack of bosses variety), however the platforming is top notch, the game even have this escape sequence platforming that is very awesome and mindblowing. movement also very fluid (some people say a bit too fluid, but i disagree, this gave the character more agile feels)

    Bellissimo platform metroidiano.
    Stile grafico e colonna sonora di alto livello, trama semplice ma ben costruita, personaggi ispirati, ottima giocabilità e buona dose di sfida.

    The artstlye is stunning, the narrative and the story are powerful, and the mechanics are varied and interesting. A little bit annoying from time to time, i have died like 450+ times throughout the 8 hour journey, but it was worth it.

    Ori is the most fun I have had playing a platformer in years, really beautiful game and it avoided hype, if you own an Xbox One, Ori and the Blind Forest is in the “must buy” Be sure not to miss out on this great game.

    This is a masterpiece. It reminded me very much of hollow knight but with less bossing and more chasing and plattforming. The progression is tuned perfectly, the story hits right in the feels and the presentation is gorgeous and timelss. It took me around 8,5 hrs for 100% on hard.

    This metroidvania platformer has a really good story and an amazing gameplay system to back that up. The journey you go through the forest with Ori is one that is hard to forget.

    Playing Ori and the Blind Forest is akin to having a piano lesson — it is fun only when you press exactly the right keys. Get off the mark for just a split second, and the entrancing melody is gone, the tempo is ruined, and all you can hear is the sound of your fingers frantically tapping the keys.

    At first, Ori looks like a very easy game. But that’s a deception: the further you go into the forest, the louder cracking of your thumbs will become. Our condolences go to anyone who will try to beat Ori on keyboard+mouse combo instead of gamepad. [May 2015, p.71]

    If you’d asked me back in the Super Nintendo days what video games would look like in the future, I imagine that I might have pictured something just like [Ori]. That is to say, something with the visual resonance of a masterfully animated film.
