This game is amazing! I haven't sat down and played a platformer in a very long time... but once I started, I couldn't stop! The progression is perfect. The story is great. The game is hard but the save function makes it forgiving. Really really love this game!

The beautiful art style and fantastic score accompany a wonderfully captivating story with great gameplay.

I slept on this game for far longer than it deserved. To be honest I thought I was done with Metroidvania style games but this game has renewed my love for them. Its gorgeous, the sound track is amazing and the gameplay is a masterful balance of interesting mechanics and difficulty. I recommend this game to anyone who loves platformers, metroidvanias, hell games in general, it is a game that should be experienced by all.

Love the music from this game and the challenges you get with this game .Check out the achievments they are good.
I wish it would tell me how to download on to my xbox since I playing on PC

I loved this game. the storyline was cute, the music was perfect for this game,the puzzles were just right on the scale of difficulty... I played it through in 8 hours(I think) and I cant wait to play it again. the only crit. I have is at the end a perfect sequence was a little annoying but then it is the end so I understand. overall I highly suggest it and will share it!

This game has a good story, amazing graphics and one of the best soundtracks. What else can you ask for in a game. Its a must have game.

Love it. It's a little TOO hard at one point where there is a great deal of water, but I'll give it another try. We need more stories like this.

This is a beautiful game in every way, it reminds me a tiny bit of Dust An Elysian Tail, though it seems a bit more gruesome when Ori is killed because he's so cute. It's also very fun with just enough of a challenge to make you think.

Stylish, hard and a bit sad. Worth buying, especially with 50% discount, support the developers. Thank you!
Only one question - why isn't it Play Anywhere?
23 April 2017
I did not finish the game but it is sooooooooo FUN I am at the water tree that is floting

Really great game and beautiful visuals. Plays great on Surface Book.

Ori and the Blind Forest is a Metroivania type game made with some of the most beautiful graphics I've seen in a 2D sidescroller yet. The soundtrack is also something that can't be missed in this meticulously crafted game. It really gets your blood pumping!
While the plot appears to be reminiscent of the first half of Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time, that doesn't mean this game can't pull at your heartstrings. The player will feel a twinge of guilt each time Ori takes damage.
The controls are very responsive and once you get the commands down, moving throughout the forest will seem effortless.
There are really only two things which prevent the game from getting five stars:
(SPOILER ALERT!)
1. The final battle or chase with Kuro feels rather anti-climatic given the pacing of the game's plot.
2. I wish I could have been able to get all the ability trees filled. (Or maybe you really aren't supposed to?)
Other than that, you must play this game or risk missing out on this gem.

Great graphics, great controls, great music and just an overall awesome experience. Sometimes it can get hard to time jumps perfectly but it won't get super frustrating.
22 January 2017
best game story, very beautiful, not to long or to short, AND BEST PART IS THE MUSIC!!!!!!!! THE MUSIC is the best music in any game ever made period.... this is a buy that is worth more then the asked price.... get it !!!!!!!!
16 January 2017
Could be a 60$ game, amazing and fun.
15 January 2017
Every frame in this game looks like a painting, I love good looking games! Its a fun platformer with RPG elements. The game works best using an Xbox controller.
1 January 2017
Only 20 minutes played so far and I can tell you this game is fantastic. Well worth the asking price and a no brainer if it's on sale. Performs well on my i7 3770 and GTX 970.

Seems like a nice Zelda type game, I imagine if you are using a game controller it would work fine, but areas where your climbing/clinging/jumping and you need to shoot with the mouse at the same time, you get stuck and you cant go back.
25 December 2016
I just bought this game on sale yesterday for $9.99. Knowing what I know now of this game, I would have gladly paid full price. The game is beautiful & mesmerizing & the music just as much. To me, the music adds so much more to this game. I'm not that very far into this game yet but from the looks of the video shorts & screenshots it looks to be even better than what I've already played. Can't wait! If you're contemplating on buying this, BUY IT. You won't regret your purchase.
24 December 2016
The game is beautiful and fun to play....when I can actually play it. I have to repeatedly press play on the game - it will open then crash, open then crash - until finally it will fully open. It takes half an hour at least to get the game running, constantly pressing play. Anyone else have this problem??!! Please tell me how to fix it. I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling. No fix.
22 December 2016
Can't say good enough things about this game. If games were art this game is the definition. Everything about it is excellent.
4 December 2016
The game worked well the first two times I played but has refused to open since. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. When I try to open the game, it goes to black screen then flashes white and goes back to my desktop. Either fix it or refund my money.
26 November 2016
one of the only games worth any money I have ever bought from the windows store. I keep looking for other games with a rating this high...
14 November 2016
Definitely the most beautiful game I've ever played, visually and musically. Very fun, can be challenging. Recommend highly!!!!
12 November 2016
It's a great Metroidvania game with beautiful visuals and a cool art style.
This should be flagged as an Xbox Play Anywhere title but for some reason it isn't.

Great game and it runs smooth on Windows
