Ori and the Will of the Wisps

It's rare to find a game that can be compared favorably to both Hollow Knight for tight metroidvania gameplay and Pixar for skill in animation and storytelling, but that is exactly what we found ourselves doing in our recent discussion of Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Moon Studio’s latest entry featuring the glowing woodland creature brought forth the best elements of its predecessor while adding in a host of mechanical and artistic improvements. Listen in as we talk through what allows Ori to make you feel heroic, deeply empathetic, and, well, squirrely all in the course of a few hours.
