At the time of reviewing I only just finished the game.
I'm struggling a bit how to describe the game since all the words I'm thinking of just don't quite fit.

Astounding, amazing, fantastic, beautiful, superb, incredible, satisfying, wonderful, ecstatic, heartwarming, tearjerking, challenging, smooth, etc. etc.

Almost every positive attribute you could possibly tag on to a platformer fits the bill yet none of them really feel like they sum up the feeling of elation I garner from having played this game.

I guess all I can really say is that you should play this game, I whole heartedly believe everyone should at the very least try this game.

The art is beautiful, the music is sublime, the controls are smooth, the puzzles are creative, the story is heartwarming and tearjerking, the animation is superb. For the first time in... Well I'd say EVER I have nothing bad to say about a game, not one thing!

Even if you're not a fan of platformers you have to play this. I mean, I don't like platformers and I adored every second of this game!

I know its only the third month of the year and it may be a bit presumptious to say it but Ori and the Blind forest has got to be the best game of 2015, I can't imagine how anyone could top this game.

All of my love to the music and art team AND the gameplay team, everything fit together seamlessly.
