OMOcat’s Omori has hit a new sales milestone, hitting one million copies sold, according to its developer on Twitter. The role-playing game launched in 2020 for PC and released for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and Nintendo Switch in June 2022 with additional content.

With a development period of over six years, Omori is based on OMOcat’s webcomic series about a hikikomori (aka recluse) known as Sunny. He also traverses the dream world with his avatar, Omori, and by making various choices, the player can learn more about his past. Omori is noteworthy for its depiction of mental illness and even features a turn-based combat system with follow-up attacks, skills, special abilities, and more.

Battles also use emotions as statuses, with a rock-paper-scissors approach to each. The twist is that emotions can be altered throughout battles, requiring you to change tactics. Omori has an “Overwhelmingly Positive” rating on Steam, with 98 percent of its 45,041 user reviews being positive.

10 Video Games Where the Ending Can Change Based on Player’s Actions

Games have been trying to properly implement choice and consequence mechanics for ages, and it’s fair to say that we’ve seen our fair share of ups and downs on that front. More often than not, the illusion of choice is what we get instead of choices that have actual and meaningful consequences- but of course, every so often, we do get games where the decisions you make actually do end up mattering quite a lot- games where, whether because of one snap decision or a string of them, how the story ends can vary significantly. Here, we’re going to talk about a few such games.

THE QUARRY

By now, Supermassive Games almost has this formula down to a science. The developer has made multiple interactive horror adventure games by now, and its latest, The Quarry, once again delivers an experience where your actions throughout the story have a major impact on how things end for each and every character. All of them can die, or none of them can, and it’s all down to what you do. The knowledge that there will be actual consequences to your actions lends a great deal of weight to everything you do in the game.
