Ori and the Blind Forest is good, the art is beautiful and so is the score. The game is more about platforming more than anything else, so the combat can feel a bit lacking, but its still decent for not being the focus.

However, the decision to make 100% missable in a metroidvania is a baffling one, one hit deaths too, especially since there is a deathless achievement, couple that with some platforming segments teetering on troll levels of trial and error, it does bring it down ever so slightly from a completionist standpoint.
