The Short Hike Finished! I easily give it a 10/10, the game delivers everything it proposes! here you sit and forget your problems you play to relax, explore a small archipelagos of islands and here we explore with our protagonist called Claire a bird girl who came from the big city to spend a season together with her aunt in a natural park full of lakes ,vegetation and nature in abundance the game has an objective which is to go to Pico do Gavião to make a phone call, since at the top of the mountain it is the only place where there is a telephone signal, to climb the layers of the mountains you need to collect some feathers gold which would be a stamina in the game, there are about 20 of them throughout the game, to acquire them is by doing activities such as buying these feathers or finding them on the map randomly or helping people in the park such as playing in a race, playing a type of volleyball beach but with a stick or help finding a lost item, the more I explored those small islands the more I felt in that little world, where all the NPCs are there to simply relax and enjoy nature and everyone is charismatic.

With Short Hike you don't need to rush, play at your pace! you don't have a world to save, you don't have a super powerful villain to stop forget your problems your anxieties it's a short game but the small activities like completing the fish encyclopedia is fun collecting all the golden feathers it's rewarding, the soundtrack is beautiful TOO MUCH! or maybe you can take a boat trip on the island until you fly over it! Helping park visitors brings a sense of duty done and brings that sweet taste of having helped someone who was in trouble and being grateful for it. It was one of the best experiences I've had playing an indie game, the only downside is that it's short! But play it is a game that I recommend for all ages.

This is such a cute game! I adore the vibrant simplistic graphics and the music is BEAUTIFUL. I'm obsessed with games that incorporate music that shifts with each change in area and builds on itself! I FEEL like I'm exploring new lands and that's super cute! Such a cozy play.

a short hike is a very special game, it's a game that's about not being a video game. it's not special for any real reason but you should absolutely play this one. so much fun

This is such a wonderful game! I love how vibrant it is, and the music is so lovely. I love how there's so much to do while also being short and sweet. I had kind of a bad day at work and coming home and playing this really made me feel a whole lot better :)

fui jogar achando que ia ser igual TOEM, nao foi, mas mesmo assim me agradou bastante

A charming little story about a bird who leaves their comfort zone and finds adventure and perspective on a short hike up a mountain.
