Artful animation and visuals combine with tightly designed exploration, though beware persistent technical issues.
It's inconsistent and sometimes annoying, but ultimately a charming, challenging, heart-string-pulling fable.
Ori and the Will of the Wisps is an excellent return to this bright and beautiful open-world platformer, with an affecting story to bolster the white-knuckle challenge.
It may not be able to claim much originality compared to its predecessor, or Metroidvania games in general, but this is still one of the best examples of its craft this generation.
A gorgeous, tear-jerking platformer which improves on absolutely everything in the first game and ranks among the finest Metroidvanias available today.
Better than its predecessor and a little longer, Will of the Wisps pounds out excitement at every turn
