A Short Hike is possibly the best game to introduce someone to playing a video game and moving around in 3D space. Also a great example of how to have friction in a game with no major stakes or competition.
I'm a wreck.
esse jogo tem sido meu vício nesses últimos dias. muito bom, gostoso de jogar. é lindinho, amo os gráficos, amo que é curto mas tb tem coisinha pra fazer !!! é divertido, ótimo passa tempo. recomendo mt pra quem busca algo calminho, bonito e super super cozy
Cosy, wholesome game.
It's been 10 minutes I'm looking for the bad sides of this game, and I can't see even one. It's a 10/10 for what the game wanted to be.
+ Gorgeous art
+ Great music
+ Good exploration
+ Perfect duration
- I guess the camera could have been better sometime but that's it

Nice and cute game with really really good music. I love getting tiny serotonin shots every time I see something on screen I will later go to pick up.
no le pongo 5 estrellas porque ganaría muchísimo si el sonido de los pasos estuviera más cuidado, pero es cine
pretty chill
A very short game which nevertheless manages to be fun, relaxing, and emotional at the same time.
I love the Nintendo DS-like graphics; the colorful environments really pop on the Switch's screen. The music is also very pleasant and doesn't get tiring on repeat.
The game has a relaxing tone but at the same time, it's really fun to control. Navigating the environments through jumping, climbing, and gliding sort of feels like a refined, smaller-scale Breath of the Wild.
I have no complaints about the game other than the fact that I would've liked it to be longer.

your average animal based cozy game. made me cry a little. i love the boat.
Another one of those games where my favorite pastime is hurling myself off steep cliffs
Everything about it sparks joy

A Short Hike is the ice cream sandwich of video games. It is the perfect summer treat, and after i finish it, i want about a dozen more.
I still have the soundtrack on my phone to this day. Everyone was cooking here.

jogo bue lindo
cute. cute. cute.
What a delightful little game. Definitely gave me Lil Gator Game vibes with its cute aesthetic, endearing animal characters & emphasis on climbing and exploring. I don’t think I like it quite as much as Lil Gator, but A Short Hike is still a worthwhile, charming experience. A lot of the writing had me laughing, the story is minimal but has a lot of heart & it’s a short but sweet little adventure. I love finding indie gems like this. Absolutely recommend.
If you are on the hunt for a wholesome, chilled and rewarding little adventure, you are right here.
You will embody the little flappy bird Claire on her journey up to Hawk Peak to grab some cellphone reception to receive an important phone call. Along your way you socialize, engage with the islanders and get sugarcoated by a delightful soundtrack.
The game feels just so well paced, as you decide, what activities you want to engage with, which path you choose and where to stop and simply enjoy the view. A Short Hike contains what the title promises on its cover: Animal Crossing-Cozyness with some dope-ass flying system, you improve with every step taken.
This game proves, it does not always have to be a mind-bending, epic meta-story. Sometimes a simplistic yet straight-forward adventure is enough, to put a smile on your face after a rainy day.

A Short Hike is the kind of cozy game you either vibe with or you don't. theres no minmaxing here, mostly just a short fun adventure with one note but often charming characters and a neat little world to explore, and do lil quests in and if you vibe with that you will love it, but if you want a challenge, you may not find that here.
what i can say is that the game is beautiful. and if youre not sold on the weird pixely vibe you can actually COMPLETELY turn that off, its a filter in the options! (i didnt but you may want to!)
A Short hike is a game that gives the same vibes as its namesake. its just a mental health day in a game format!

Short, but sweet, funny and lovely. The music also adds to a good feeling when playing the game.
Que delícia de joguinho. O título não mente, é uma trilha curta, mas cada minutinho com esse jogo foi a maior paz. O final é muito bonito, o jogo tem uma vibe gostosinha demais e a trilha sonora é um deleite. Gosto bastante da mecânica de movimentação também.
Mesmo depois de terminar ainda quis voltar pro jogo e explorar um pouco do que esse mundinho tinha pra me oferecer. Não quis caçar todos os troféus nem nada, mas já valeu muito a pena.

Loved the character controller and the goofy vibe. Make sure to play with a controller for this one.
one of the most positive games i have ever played. it's all about the beauty in the simpler things in life, and i absolutely love it. i love the writing, i love the world, it's really great.

It's a fairly charming little game. With little quests for items which you need to climb the mountain. One play through shouldn't take more than maybe 2 hours!
The 'The End' title card jump scared me a little
A nice fun short game. Reminds me of something that you would play on the ds or 3ds with the style but in a nostalgic way. This game really shows that sometimes its about the journey and not the destination.

This game is perfect for what it is, very cute , very cozy, nice movement, fuck the boat but the game is amazing
A pretty nice chill indie. Some called it "Animal Crossing: Adventure Mode." Well, it's about exploring a mountain, and freely going wherever you want and doing a variety of things, from participating in a race to giving a kid a ride on a high speed boat through an obstacle course he built, to collecting hidden things. The upgradeable stamina for running/climbing/flying and openness of the game make it feel like a miniature cozy Zelda: Wild Breath of the Kingdom Tears.
Overall, I really liked it. I just don't care for the pixelated look, which, rather than evoking nostalgia, just looks ugly to my eyes. This is a 3D polygonal game with decent art, imo, and there is no reason for a pixel filter.

the use of dynamic music was beautiful
Kind of really surprised by this despite nothing but praise. Really nails its cozy vibe and humor, and delivers a nice small world to explore that feels really big until you arrive at the beginning again. On top of this, I felt like I spent much more time in this one playthrough than I did, as by the end no more than two and a half hours have passed.
Gameplay works and is fun, not lacking in depth but not too complex, and I was really surprised by some well-realized minigames. It's also nice to have a 3D game in this day and age with fixed camera angles that work really well.
There isn't some big story, but there were some endearing characters and the ending did get me.
So yeah. Really good game. Can't go wrong with playing it.
