OVIVO reviews

Ovivo is a small but fine indie skill game that deviates from the usual Platforming scheme. The Game Mechanics are actually relatively simple: The Character can only go left and right and change the Color at The Touch of a button, which switches from a white to a black Surface and vice Versa. In the process, Gravity is reversed so that you can overcome Inclines and Protrusions. Some people may still know about the Flashgame "Shift." Without large Tutorials, you quickly get used to the controls and find your way around the minimalist But beautifully regarded game world, which is set somewhere between tasteful Tattoos and mesmerizing Mandalas. But even if you've learned the Controls after a few Minutes, the Game always finds new Ways to challenge the Player in later Levels. The Absence of Life Ads, Minimaps, Points or The Like is also quite unusual, but allows you to focus entirely on the Game world. Since you have an infinite number of Attempts and regularly pass an (invisible) reset Point, frustration never really Comes up. Along with the varied but coherent Soundtrack, the Ovivo makes it a very relaxing Game. There is no Story, nor is it really called a Game Goal, so you basically just wander through the Levels. In each Level, however, in addition to the Exit, there are three collectable symbols and a Number of Dots that are rarely really hidden, but often require a bit of Skill and Reflection. As a result, Collectors also have something of the Game and can enjoy 31 Achievements. Those also have my only Criticism of the Game: At least the English Translation here has a few Inconsistencies like "it's" instead of "its," or vice versa. But that weighs little. After not quite three Hours I was completely through with Ovivo. The regular Price may be a bit borderline, but rabbit you can strike if you are looking for a relaxed, artistically striking Game in between. The Screenshots don't promise too much.
