Description

Hitchhiker is a mystery game set along lost highways, where your goal is to solve the puzzle of your own backstory. As a hitchhiker with no memory or destination, you catch a series of rides across a strange and beautiful landscape, tracking the mysterious disappearance of a person close to you. Your drivers range from stoic farmers to off-duty waitresses, and each one has a story to tell. Clues appear, alliances emerge, and nothing is quite what it seems.

As your journey continues, you must decode the events of your past while confronting the dangers that lie ahead. Hitchhiker is a road-trip odyssey about exploring the unknown in order to find yourself.

  • Hitchhike across a strange and beautiful landscape in five rides with five total strangers who will challenge your grasp on reality... And maybe your philosophy on life.
  • Solve environmental puzzles, and keep an eye out for clues, in order to uncover your mysterious past.
  • The choices you make when speaking with the drivers will reveal your own dark secrets.

Is Any of This Real?

After a few minutes I asked myself, "Is this really the whole game?" But then it got weird and interesting. A young man is accompanied by five drivers on a surreal quest to regain his memories and uncover the truth behind what happened to his girlfriend. Is it all a dream? Is the young man dying? Is any of it actually happening? Who knows. Hitchhiker is minimally interactive but enough to remain engaging throughout its fairly brief playtime. The gameplay consists mostly of selecting dialog responses, and there are a few simple puzzles peppered across the five chapters. I would recommend Hitchhiker for anyone looking for a casual, emotional, and thoughtful interactive experience.

An Interactive Story I'll Never Forget.

Hitchhiker is more of an interactive novel than a video game. The parts are well voice acted, the story is well written, I was captivated the whole way through. It's a relaxing experience, like an old friend reading you a story. There's heart and meaning in each new turn. You can't change the story significantly, but you still feel a part of it, rather than just an observer. I think that's what makes it so good, you become invested because you start to feel like the main character. If you like a relaxing story that keeps you engaged with mystery and puzzle solving, then you'll like Hitchhiker.

Like a feverish dream

This game is totally strange, like a feverish dream - maybe if you love Alice in Wonderland (but way more strange) you might enjoy this. It's not a regular mystery, it's got nothing with reality to do, everything's just so odd that you likely won't care a bit about the story and just quit halvway through like I did. Very sad, since the idéa about these relaxing carrides are awesome - like walking-sims but you don't even have to walk ;) Very relaxing and nice graphics and all, but wow, I did not expect this kind of a "story"!

Hey Seb-gog

It's got nothing with reality to do? Was that yoda?
