Can I Run Ori and the Blind Forest?
Ori and the Blind Forest is an action game from Moon Studios GmbH, released in 2015. Xbox Game Studios published it. The game supports a single player campaign. At more than a decade old it predates every current graphics architecture, which helps compatibility and limits how well it exploits a modern card. With more than 50 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. There are 50 achievements to chase. 9 languages are covered by the store listing. Critics scored it 88 on Metacritic. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. The game ships for Windows alone.
