Oure

Oure is a gentle beautiful ethereal game which lovers of flying will enjoy. It has a good mixture of zen flying, finding collectables, solving puzzles and battling to calm the Titans to fulfil their role. This is a non-violent game, but you can be killed if you stray in the wrong area. You play a dragon-child whose parents have sent you to the land in the skies to save the dying and stricken world below. You can choose between a girl and a boy. Your main role is to activate ancient machinery and puzzles which will awaken the eight Titans who have the power to restore the world. You have to calm each Titan down and restore them to their full glory. Only then will they trust you and aid you in bringing restoration to the world below. Along the way, you will discover relics of the past. There are also glowing orbs which give you more stamina and empower you in other skills. I managed to find all 750 of them!! The clouds themselves can restore your energy too by simply flying through them. Some people will find it laborious to track down all the collectables and relics. I love flying in games and this was the best flying game I've played. It has a gentle ambiance to it and y…

Absolutely wonderful, an overlooked forgotten gem!

Oure is a game where you fly as a dragon through the sky, find a lot of hidden artefacts if you want a challenge, or just complete the main objectives if you don't. The puzzles aren't very difficult, but there's an option to play a second run with slightly harder puzzles if you want. You can't die and there's no violence or scary themes, so it's also a great game for younger players if you want. The art style is pleasant and the world is quite minimalistic. And the score by Ian Livingstone is EXCELLENT. Seriously, I heard the music for this game on ABC Classic's 'Game Show' with Meena Shamaly and it made me want to play this game. And it did not disappoint!

Horrible controls for the last titan if you want the related achievement, but apart from that... fun game.

The game offers exactly what is described under it's features. My only complaint with this game is that the few parts where you have to play as a child are... not great. Fortunately, I've found this is a negligible disappoint because you get to fly around as a chinese dragon, collecting orbs, artifacts and other things. And if you are afraid this is one big collectathon, don't: you need to collect very few orbs to progress through the main storyline. For me, personally, this is a great game to play for 30-60 minutes to wind down after a busy day. Then I found there is also a New Game+ with harder puzzles to solve (but without having to recollect all collectables) meaning this game has some replayability.

One of the most relaxing and beautiful adventure games I've ever played. 10/10 would recommend even if the story isn't the strongest or very present. The only thing I wish this game could have is some sort of multiplayer where the players could compete with one another with different puzzles, races, racing to collect things first, or for them to just fly and mess around and relax together.
