TheSixthAxisNic ReubenJan 20219/10Nostalgic, lovingly crafted, moving, and surprising, Omori is a remarkable achievement. Earthbound and Undertale are easy comparisons, but Omori stands out as it's own, highly personal piece of storytelling.

DarkstationGarland PanJan 20215/5 starsHaving played through OMORI, I’m confident say that it’s an experience I won’t forget. This is a game I wholeheartedly recommend for those that appreciate a good story. With a strong emphasis on catharsis, it has a lot up its sleeves. The cutesy and colorful presentation hides a grim reality and it hits hard. Highly recommended, OMORI is a gem of a game that definitely deserves recognition.

RPG FanAleks FraniczekAug 202390/100For those who can stomach its depictions of a young boy's tortured life (and mostly generic gameplay), Omori offers some of the most unforgettable moments you can find in a narratively ambitious indie RPG.

Nintendo LifeMitch VogelJul 20228/10Omori isn't a game that we would say is for everyone, but it's the kind of thing that seems like it will deeply resonate with its intended audience. If you're looking for a funny, sad, creepy, and downright disorienting RPG adventure, Omori is something you won't want to miss. The memorable narrative, offbeat sense of style, and high replayability make this one easy to recommend, even if the plot pacing can feel sluggish and the combat doesn't always deliver on its potential. We think Omori is an experience that's worth your time; give it a shot if you want to try something a little different.
