Truly a spectacle.

Artful animation and visuals combine with tightly designed exploration, though beware persistent technical issues.
Ori and the Will of the Wisps pairs a strong narrative with a larger world and an enhanced talent system to make a must-play platformer.
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.
If you're the kind of person who can't stand bugs ruining your games then maybe you might want to wait a bit until this is good and patched. But even with the glitches, Ori and the Will Of The Wisps is undeniably a captivating, marvelous game that makes us hope that we won't have to wait another 5 years to see Ori in action again.
A gorgeous, tear-jerking platformer which improves on absolutely everything in the first game and ranks among the finest Metroidvanias available today.
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.
