Review #27 - 2020

A flash game site unlike any other, that unfortunately due to flash being removed from the internet, is no longer functional. If you experienced it, you know how special this site truly was, delivering serene works of art in the form of browser games. They all had a distinct theme setting each game apart, from the look, to the characters, to the music. What tied each game together, was the beautiful art style that was glowing and warm, like playing a game from a delightful dream, with backdrops like watercolored paintings.

If you haven't experienced it, the best way you can is by proxy, through videos on YouTube. I have recorded gameplay myself, and am intending on making a mini documentary about the games, and how they effected me. I've reached out to Ferry Halim, and they might be able to make a new site using HTML5, but we'll just have to wait and see. Until then, Orisinal lives on in my heart, and in my soul, for bringing me peace during my hardest days as a child, and as an adult. I miss it dearly.
