Critic Reviews for Olija
Olija is a memorable 2D action platformer with great combat that is over all too soon with little reason to return.
A brilliant central mechanic and a game of real craft and character.
Olija spearheads a grimly thrilling adventure which is over too soon.
It may be brief, but Olija confidently blends satisfying action and engaging exploration for a treat that shouldn't be overlooked.
Olija's quick, zippy combat, platforming puzzles, and minimalist storytelling all shine in a small, pixelated trifle.
Olija doesn't do enough to be regarded as generally good, but at the same time doesn't frustrate to the point of truly damaging the experience.
Olija is a piratical adventure that really, really pays attention to atmosphere. From its bombastic music, which echoes similarly pirate-themed Return of the Obra Dinn, to its arthouse-cinema-style sudden cuts to black, Olija is possibly the most cinematically dramatic indie game we've seen in quite some time.
Olija is a well-made and enjoyable action-adventure; lacking, however, of qualitative touches able to distinguish it from a tough competition. It remains, in any case, a well-made and enjoyable game.
