Featured review
I recently bought Omori for the switch and God am I happy I did. I'll start with the easier stuff. The graphics are very pretty and downright fantastic in some sections, however it's not going to blow you away or anything. The main use of the graphics is to enhance the storytelling of the game, which they do masterfully. On the other hand, the music not only enhances the storytelling of the game to an insane degree, but is also just amazing in its own right, likely the best (indie) ost since Cuphead three years before it. Just like the graphics, the gameplay is not going to blow you away with its completely unique and different battle system, but that doesn't mean it's not incredible(even more so than the graphics I think). It's classic turn based combat for the most part, but with fantastic rpg elements and a wonderful little "emotion gimmick" that gives the game its own spin on turn based rpg combat. When not in combat, you get to enjoy an amazingly rich world of cities, hotels, planets, whales, and more. Two of my favorite parts about exploring are how there are items to pick up everywhere, making all exploration worth it, as well as how each item has its own little unique description, giving the game so much personality and charm(a lot like undertale). Still, even with all this, I would probably only give the game an 8 or maybe an 8.5. What takes it up to an easy ten is the downright terrifying beauty of its storyline. It has easily one of the best storylines I've ever seen in a game, telling a story of loss, grief, guilt, depression, and memory. I don't want to spoil it but just know it's beautifully(and arguably perfectly) paced, written, directed, and drawn. If you have not given this one a go, I would highly recommend that you do; you will not regret it.
