Enchanting

I stumbled across this game and am so glad I did -- it's absolutely delightful. No combat, open-world exploration game where you play a young penguin who is (reluctantly) on vacation to a park which her family has visited for years. She has the day to herself and is free to roam and explore around the island. There is much to discover about the island (and maybe about yourself along the way). Charming graphics, engaging music, zero combat, a Miyazaki "vibe", and a wonderful Metroidvania style of pacing and exploration that makes this a real gem of an adventure game that is completable in a few (delightful) hours. Highly recommended!

Charming & relaxing

This game is very easy to unwind with. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The dialogue was startlingly direct and refreshing, and I soon grew to like the people on the island. The game doesn't mind if you take the direct path or turn around and go the exact wrong way, with plenty of things to do regardless of which direction you go. There's so much to love about this game, from the fishing tutorial to the sassy feather scalper. The open world design is one of my favorites, very reminiscent of Breath of the Wild to me. It doesn't care what quests you tackle first or last, or how directly you choose to go after the goal. This is the kind of open world, railroad-free, setting I crave. Downsides: I'm quite picky about graphics, so it took me a bit to get into the feel of this game. Luckily, the soundtrack was top notch. I had a bit of difficulty with the controls, but since falling off isn't that big a deal, especially late-game, I didn't mind that overall. The biggest problem I had was the way the camera can change, sometimes rapidly, in a dizzying way that made Claire fly the wrong direction despite the fact that my key press hadn't changed. In short, this game brought a smile to my face. It was easy to get into and fulfilling to get lost in. Highly recommend. Would purchase a sequel.

Great game.

It's a single chapter story with bits of exploration and side quests sprinkled across the island. It was a wonderful experience, if not for the occasional disappointing dialogue. Still an easy 5/5. Also, while this game has in-game acheivements, they don't exist on GOG. :(

As Short a Trip as You Like

I started this game after completing both Hollow Knight and Dead Cells and I was longing for something relaxing and easy. I picked up A Short Hike, rushed through the game in less than half an hour, and I immediately regretted it. This is a game better enjoyed at a slower pace. There is a lot to take in, the world is nicely drawn, with naive but lovely characters each of which has their own little story to share. The mechanics are fluent and fun, it's so nice to just glide over the island and take in the views to a beautiful soundtrack. The graphics menu lets you choose between chunky pixel graphics or a more hand-drawn style. But best of all, this game lets you play at your own pace and it doesn't force any moral of the story upon you. I'll be back to play this game in a less rushed manner and I can wholly recommend this game to anyone willing to take a break and relax on a hike as short as you'd like it to be.

It is my save haven now

I have had this game for a while now, and I find myself returning to it again and again. It's short, so I usually get through it in one sitting (maybe two, if I really feel like exploring on a specific weekend), but no matter how much content I have already seen, I still do it all over again every other month. It is nice to have your personal little island park to go to whenever you wish to get away for a while, and I am very thankful that I have one in my life.
