This month we’re playing Ori and the Blind Forest — a side-scrolling, soul-touching, platform-jumping, forest-exploring masterpiece that’s about 8 hours long, which is just enough time to finish it and still get 8 hours of sleep if you're a wizard. It’s beautiful, it’s fun, and yes — it might make you accidentally develop a deep emotional connection with a glowing forest creature. Nature, am I right?

Available on:

Xbox One / Series X|S

Nintendo Switch

PC

On game Game Pass as well

You’ll bounce, dash, climb, and probably yell “wait, how do I get up THERE?” at least five times. Classic Metroidvania vibes.

Meetup Info:
Sunday, June 22nd at 2 PM
Location: HOB Brewing Co. (Downtown Dunedin)

Bonus Round (literally):
I’ll be there around 12:30 PM grabbing something tasty from the food trucks, so come hang if you want to snack, chill, and discuss important philosophical questions like “is jumping off walls a valid life skill?”

Oh — and I’ll have Ori-themed trivia questions ready to go during the meetup. There are no prizes... except honor and possibly a high five so powerful it echoes through the forest.

HOB is an outdoor spot, and while they’ve got shade and fans, we are still in Florida where the sun is a fireball with no chill. Dress cool, hydrate like a pro, and maybe bring a hat that screams “I game, but also I sun-safe.”

Can’t wait to see y’all there! Let’s talk games, eat stuff off trucks, and try not to melt! Should be a fun day!
