The Week In Games: Ori Gives A Hoot

Ori And The Will Of The Wisps drops this week for PC and Xbox One. If you have Game Pass you will be able to play this game the moment it launches. The sequel to 2015’s much loved Ori And The Blind Forest, this new game features owls. That is why I put “hoot” in the headline. Get it?

Typing the word hoot this many times has reminded me of the movie Hoot. It was a movie co-produced by Jimmy Buffet about a group of teens trying to save some owls. It also starred pre-Marvel Brie Larson and Clark “Phil Coulson” Greg. It didn’t do well at the box office. After watching this trailer, I can’t imagine why it bombed…
