Omno

"Animation is the art of movement and Omno is clearly a work of art, but isn’t the masterpiece I was hoping it to be. Despite that, it is still an impressive feat. It is no surprise that the game reached …"

"Inspired and delicate on the visual and musical side, Omno&s;s journey does not convince to the end, also thanks to a somewhat hasty ending and a moral conveyed with slight superficiality."

"A colorful journey that leads the player to explore some fantastic biomes and shines thanks to a beautiful soundtrack."
