10 Incredible Indie Games You Must Consider

1. Ori & The Blind Forest

Ori And The Blind Forest
MOON Studios

The voice of the Spirit Tree in the forest of Nibel narrates the story of when Ori, a white guardian spirit, fell from the tree during a storm as a newborn and was adopted by a creature named Naru, who raised Ori as her own.

A cataclysmic event soon makes all of the forest wither, and Naru dies of starvation. Newly orphaned, Ori was left to explore the forest on their own. After collapsing near the Spirit Tree and being restored to life by it, Ori later meets Sein, a being in the shape of a small blue orb, who both guides Ori on their adventure and attacks enemies.

To restore the forest, Sein guides Ori to recover the light of three main elements supporting the balance of Nibel: Waters, Winds and Warmth.

The beautiful animation and unique storyline lend this game to being more suited to quirky players; it nevertheless remains a riveting story that will draw you in.
