Un juego que no toma tanto tiempo, innovador y hermoso

It's alright, but I didn't really find anything too notable about it

Cara que jogo relaxante!
Trilha sonora muito boa, lembra até os filmes do Studio ghibli, npc's muito legais, a exploração é muito satisfatória, sempre te recompensando por andar por cada cantinho da ilha do Pico do Gavião, os gráficos são muito bonitos, mesmo tendo a estética de playstation 1.
A escalada/jornada é muito foda, você encontra npc's carismáticos, vários itens, quests legais.
Por último sobre a gameplay, ela é boa e simples, sempre que você encontra um npc ele te ensina uma nova habilidade e isso é muito legal. E as penas douradas são um bom fator desafio no jogo.
De resto, o jogo é ótimo com uma excelente experiência, mesmo sendo curto.
Vale muito apena.

One of the most sublime experiences gaming has to offer. That pure earnestness is unmatched, I just wanted it to last forever. Almost cried at multiple points.

jogo simples, bonito, rapidinho, e extremamente satisfatorio de se jogar, todo mundo deveria pegar esse jogo pra jogar numa madrugada


Qualquer pessoa deveria pegar uma tarde e zerar esse jogo, ele é tao curtinho mas aquece o seu coração num nível absurdo

Mieux que les randonnées avec Nico, la au moins j'ai pas besoin de l'attendre tous les 100m psq ouin ouin il a mal au jambes
Bien dit ça !
Super jeu mieux que ton Helldivers jsp quoi la

The only thing I disliked about this game was that it ended too soon. The vibes? Impeccable. The music? Cozy as fuck. The gameplay? Really intuitive and satisfying (dive bombing from the top of the mountain to build speed only to neatly land in front of my aunt was deeply, DEEPLY satisfying). Even the writing had me smiling constantly. This game is the gaming equivalent of being snuggled up under a blanket with a cup of tea reading a good book in the middle of winter.

The only reason its not rated higher was that far too short and far too chill to leave a lasting impression on me. It's simply a good time with good vibes. As of the end of March 2024, it's the best game I've played all year. Highly recommend.

A little serene, a little touching, a little funny, just a perfect little game.

(disclaimer: this game is not actually perfect because the inventory/item system leaves something to be desired and the fixed camera sometimes does as well but these are super minor issues ok thx bye)

This game is so cute and good and sweet I love shit like this :,,

- Short hike -
A Short hike es simplemente eso, un paseo corto de exploracion para llegar a la cima.
Me parecio muy lindo todo el recorrido con su estetica tan linda que parece hecha tipo nintendo 64 y con una musica muy pacifica que hace muy digerible explorar el pequeño mapa para tener las alas doradas que nos ayudaran a subir a la cima fácilmente .

Man, what a game. It feels like a breath of fresh air, and makes you feel calm and happy. A short hike captivates you and makes you even forgot what you're supposed to be doing. A heartfelt story, while minimal is still emotional and very well done. I cannot recommend this game enough. It doesn't matter what type of game you like, this game is for you.

Well, the title is pretty on the nose. This was indeed a short hike. I'm actually glad it was so short, it was just a nice and calm game to play in the middle of some bigger stuff.

A Short Hike has been a pretty obvious inspiration for many independent games I've seen in the last few years. I can't describe in what ways, but so many things seem so similar to this game.

In terms of the world you explore, though it is small, it's also big. It's easy to traverse but it also has a lot of stuff to do in it. Playing games, racing, helping the NPCs with quests, finding treasure, fishing, etc. The way you traverse is also just fantastic, gliding, climbing, running fast, it all feels really good, and gets even better with the Golden Feathers.

The Golden Feathers are the main collectable, and I thought the devs did a great job with how the player obtains them and fines them. Some you can buy, but a lot are spread out throughout the world for the player to find, giving the player even more of an incentive to explore. It makes the gameplay smoother and the game even more satisfying.

The music was very subtle. It was great, quite, and fit the atmosphere. I also liked how they sometimes just didn't have any music, and let the world speak on its own. Kinda reminds me of BOTW music. Great stuff.

The Art-Style is nostalgic and charming. It reminds me of the DS games I grew up with, and has a lot of colors that all mesh well. I do feel at times it may be a little too pixelated, but for the most part it was really nice.

The game is lacking a bit in narrative, but the story of the adventure you have is really charming. That's pretty much the whole game, just a big charm fest. Clair is a really good protagonist who you see grow as a person, and the characters she interacts with are also night. But the main thing is the adventure, and I loved it.

Not many complaints, I do hope we get a longer sequel or something, or maybe it's best this is a one off thing, maybe that would make it more special somehow. I thought the camera was quirky at times, I wish there was a map, and I do wish the Dialogue and narrative were both more compelling, but seriously, I don't have many complaints.

I think that this is a game that anyone can play and everyone should try. It's not a big enough world so it's hard to get lost, it has great music, loveable characters, a charming art-style, the short length, and some smooth gameplay. If you want to play a great short game, or just a great game in general, I'd recommend "A Short Hike".

Score: 4.1/5
Letter Grade: A-

such a relaxing game to play that,s about 2 hours long, great game for its length, i recc if you're in a burnout or something, even so, this game is great and my fav part is the interactions, a lot of the interactions in the game can be applicated into your own life and its just very comforting to see, overall great game.

It doesn't do anything extraordinary, but I love it's simplicity. Cute characters with fun dialogue, satisfying flying mechanic. Volleyball minigame. 10/10.

A game you could beat in 2 hours if you really wanted, but you are better off exploring every little bit of the island. Super cute and cozy game that is perfect for a rainy day.

good little game for a cozy afternoon. very short (its in the name), but it will warm your soul. and its fun. 4/5 stars

Extremely short yet extremely sweet!

Omg omg omg I love this game its so charming, cozy, and fun!! It has great humor and there's so much to explore. The characters are awesome and so cute. This was an awesome game to play in bed on a beautiful Sunday. The ending, wow, that was touching.

esse jogo é INCRIVEL, cara ele é muito lindo e toda essa jornada é muito boa, a história é muito legal, npcs incriveis, o mapa muito bom e lindo. Sério tudo nesse jogo é bom

cute small game, it doesnt do anything big but it makes me happy that it doesnt try to be the next big thing, its just a short fun time.

Mucho mejor de lo que esperaba. Súper bonito, con buena música, muchísimo por explorar, diferentes minijuegos y un final emotivo. Además dura lo que tiene que durar y no se hace pesado.

Este es como un parque no es un tipo de relación placentera, tienes que caminar para disfrutarlo y admirar lo especial que es, es hermoso visual como en historia menos en el final, pero digamos que es como el juego de las misiones secundarias, es lo que más saca jugo, la isla es fácil perderse y moverse, pero tiene tantas cosas que hacer, ósea se ve como una maqueta, pero es quizás una maqueta grande como un set lego, hay amor en los detalles y las cosas que podemos hacer aquí, la verdad me gustó y creo que si te gustan los coleccionables o los juegos con historia sobre la adolescencia este es el tuyo. 


Joguinho curtinho pra zerar em 1H e 30 minutos, bem calmo e relaxante. A trilha sonora é bem feita para te relaxar junto com o voo da personagem. Só joguei pq a Epic deu de graça, pessoalmente, não é o tipo de jogo que curto, mas reconheço seu clima reconfortante. Joguinho legal sobre andar e escalar uma montanhazinha.
