    While the Nintendo Switch has seen its fair share of Metroidvania titles over its four-year run, Ori and the Will of the Wisps stands strong as one of its best. While the original was already a memorable adventure, Ori and the Will of the Wisps manages to make improvements whilst dazzling with a visual look that somehow manages to be even more eye-catching than before.

    Will of the Wisps was always an impressive visual showpiece, despite the technical flaws that initially held it back. It's more straightforward, combat-heavy flow may still put off die-hard fans of the original Ori, but there's that's a small nitpick for a game that retains its identity while finding a new flow.

    I prefer the first game

    I'm not saying this isn't a good game, it is. I just prefer the allure and novelty of the first game.

    Ori and the Will of the Wisps

    I think I just suck at this game. I am not good at platformers. Great game if you are good at platformer games. Even on the easiest setting it was hard to get past one of the places and could not progress further.
