  • gameplay
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay is a mixed bag, featuring smooth mechanics and visually stunning environments, but marred by frustrating controls, particularly in tight spaces and during titan encounters. While the concept of shapeshifting and puzzle-solving is intriguing, many players find the progression tedious and repetitive, leading to a less enjoyable experience overall. The game is best approached as a relaxing experience rather than an action-packed adventure.

    • “Pretty good game; the graphics are decent, the gameplay is smooth, and everything is fun.”
    • “On top of the gorgeous overworld, the titan segments are visually spectacular and consistently creative mechanically.”
    • “The gameplay consists of a boy who shapeshifts into a dragon, flying amongst a cloudy sky, calming down titans with gameplay elements similar to Shadow of the Colossus; however, instead of stabbing weak points, you solve puzzles at these points.”
    • “However, don't buy the game if you expect action-packed gameplay.”
    • “- The main progression system of calming down titans is monotonous and tedious, not that fun, and feels more like a job to progress than actual gameplay.”
    • “A seemingly interesting set-up quickly disappears; repetitive and frustrating gameplay dampens the experience further, and the abysmal controls make every second spent playing a depressing chore.”
  • story
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is generally enjoyable and complemented by pleasant music, though it may not be the strongest aspect, with some players wishing for more development and emotional depth. While the plot features some clichés and lacks variety, it serves as a light backdrop to the gameplay, allowing players to progress without needing to focus heavily on collecting items. Overall, it offers a relaxing experience, even if the narrative itself is somewhat underwhelming.

    • “I love the game's story.”
    • “The way the story is told and the plot itself is enjoyable.”
    • “The game has a pleasant story along with wonderful music.”
    • “I was hoping for a little more story development, but it is just what it is.”
    • “The plot isn't interesting and relies on some storytelling clichés.”
    • “The story lacks emotion and drama, and the camera work is dodgy and heavy on the blur.”
  • music
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is widely praised for its sublime orchestral quality, enhancing the immersive experience and complementing the game's environments. Players appreciate the dynamic shifts in the soundtrack, particularly during key moments, although some note that the lack of continuous music can lead to extended periods of silence, which may be seen as both a positive and a negative. Overall, the soundtrack is considered a standout feature, contributing significantly to the game's charm and emotional impact.

    • “A really cute game, kind of a more lighthearted Shadow of the Colossus, and the music is phenomenal.”
    • “Music doesn't loop, creating large portions of silence when exploring. However, this can be relaxing, so take it as a pro or con.”
    • “When you're following the titans, the music becomes more strident and urgent.”
    • “The lovely and interesting environments are backed by a sublime orchestral soundtrack which soars around you on your journey.”
  • graphics
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are praised for their pleasant and minimalist art style, featuring gentle and ethereal visuals that enhance the overall aesthetic experience. Players appreciate the stylish and neat design, noting that the graphics are both gorgeous and simplistic, contributing to a smooth and enjoyable gameplay experience.

    • “The art style is pleasant and the world is quite minimalistic.”
    • “Graphics were really lovely, gentle, ethereal with surprises popping up here and there.”
    • “The art style is freakin' gorgeous while being very simplistic at the same time.”
    • “I play on maximum field of view, but it occasionally glitches with the camera when you're at that distance with nearby objects.”
    • “The graphics are stylish and neat.”
  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game offers replayability through a New Game+ mode that features more challenging puzzles while allowing players to retain their collected items, encouraging players to revisit the experience.

    • “Then I found there is also a New Game+ mode with harder puzzles to solve (but without having to recollect all collectibles), meaning this game has significant replayability.”
    • “Then I found there is also a New Game+ with harder puzzles to solve (but without having to recollect all collectibles), meaning this game has some replayability.”
    • “The lack of significant changes in the storyline makes it hard to justify multiple playthroughs.”
    • “Once you've completed the game, there's little incentive to return, as the side quests feel repetitive and uninspired.”
  • grinding
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of calming down titans to be monotonous and tedious, often likening it to a job rather than an enjoyable gameplay experience.

    • “The main progression system of calming down titans is monotonous and tedious, not that fun, and feels more like a job to progress than actual gameplay.”
    • “Grinding feels like an endless chore rather than an engaging part of the game.”
    • “The repetitive nature of grinding makes it hard to stay motivated and enjoy the game.”
  • atmosphere
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere in Oure is highly praised, with players highlighting the enchanting experience of soaring through clouds and discovering hidden cave ruins, creating a dreamlike exploration environment.

    • “Oure nails its atmosphere, and soaring through clouds, only to find a small entrance that leads to a hidden cloud cave filled with an ancient ruin was an exploration dream come true.”
