Omori - Nintendo Switch

genuinely one of the most fun, yet emotional games that i have played. while i am not a very emotive person, i really enjoyed the concept and it’s execution. i loved the characters, the combat + it’s usage of teamwork and emotions, the art style— i loved it all! obviously, there are faults in the game and reasons to possibly dislike it. but i think this is a game that i’m going to think about for a long time and put it in my list of favorites. if you can handle disturbing themes and horror, i completely recommend this game.

Story: In this game, the focus is on the story and how it begins all nice and cute, but then takes a different turn with an unexpected ending. Gameplay: The gameplay resembles an RPG with a Rock, Paper, Scissors system, which becomes clear as you play the game. It's not difficult to grasp. In my opinion, this type of game bears a strong resemblance to visual novels. Just concentrate on the story. *Caution: I do not recommend it for anyone dealing with depression, as it contains depictions of depression, anxiety, and suicide, and may not be suitable for all audiences."

Omori is an action rpg with horror-like elements mixed in. The story and writing of this game are absolutely phenomenal, I have never seen any game build up such amazing characters with interesting arcs and passions. The characters in this game felt like real people. The gameplay is also very solid as well. If you've already played the game, Omori console edition does include some extra things in the hikkomori route. The physical edition also comes with an extra photograph of two of the characters and a cute little game guide pamphlet covering the mechanics of the game. Overall a must buy if you have never played Omori. Be advised, this game can get horrifying at certain points.

Omori has a great art style and presentation that delivers dark themes about loss. It's an emotional story I highly recommend.

My FAVORITE game of all time. The pure depth in every character, every quest, every story, is to a level I haven’t found in every game. This game manages to be easy to follow yet FULL of symbolism that will leave you wanting more even on your third play through. Playing through different endings is like living the story through a new lens every time. This game made me feel the full range of human emotion. I was playing it on a digital copy, but wanted a physical copy so I bought this, and it both came early and in perfect condition. This physical copy comes with a sticker and a booklet that helps with the game that I would have LOVED to have on my original play through, so if your hesitant to spend the extra money on the physical instead of digital copy, know it’s WELL worth it. I could talk about this game for hours, it’s a MASTERPIECE of art just as much as it’s a video game. My favorite game and has been for years, a must play.
