Ori and the Blind Forest is a platform-adventure Metroidvania video game developed by Moon Studios and published by Microsoft Studios. The game was released for Windows and Xbox One in March 2015, and for Nintendo Switch in September 2019. Players assume control of Ori, a small white spirit, and Sein, the "light and eyes" of the Forest's Spirit Tree. Players are tasked to move between platforms and solve puzzles. The game features a save system called "Soul Links", which allows players to save their progress at will with limited resources, and an upgrade system that allows players to strengthen Ori's skills and abilities.
Runs well on modern hardware.

Amazing game, if you enjoy metroidvania, good music and a beatifull world, just go for it.
This was a delightful experience. Very beautiful. It was the first time playing this genre and I found challenge enough to be rewarding but not punishing that makes me quit. 100% recommended
[h1]Enchanting, inspiring and magical at the same time (again)![/h1] Still this is the only game I've played that has such beautiful graphics, wonderful music, interesting challenges, a very emotional story and immersive atmosphere! And if you want to collect all the achievements, then there is also a certain grind aspect to it. I highly recommend playing this pleasure again! This time in the Definitive Edition. Overall: 9/10 ⭐ Story: 10/10 ⭐ Gameplay: 7/10 ⭐ Atmosphere: 10/10 ⭐ Graphics: 10/10 ⭐ Audio: 10/10 ⭐ Performance: 9/10 ⭐ Replayability: 7/10
