A Short Hike is not just the most recommendable indie I've ever played, but probably the most recommendable game I've ever played. It's on everything from Nintendo Switch to PS4 and PS5, to even Xbox, PC and Steam. It's a fantastic Indie game that I think just about anyone could enjoy.

  • In my opinion, A Short Hike is pretty much a perfect game. It's like a mini-open-world game, since there is little to no hand-holding and you can go your own way right at the start. Yet, since the world is so small, it doesn't repeat itself or become overwhelming. It's fun and relaxing to explore and discover, and the vibe is just wholesome the whole way through. For me, it was the perfect length, too.

    The ending hit me hard. Some of my most cherished gaming memories are of me spending hour after hour, diving as deep as I possibly can into the specific kind of escapism only video games can give. A Short Hike itself looks and sounds absolutely adorable, sweet, and beautiful. This video makes me immediately want to go and buy it

    Man that ending really hit me hard. I went through a similar situation irl where there was this "call" I had to get. I more or less knew that it would be bad, but I held onto the hope that I'd be proven wrong and that it was actually a good thing waiting for me at that "mountain top". I was indeed proven wrong, and found out that what awaited me wasn't something bad, but rather something terrible. I don't know where I was going with this, but I guess I just felt like venting haha

    This is one game I always recommend to anyone. I am the only person who has played it amongst my friends and family and have no one to talk to about it. I think the graphics throws them off but it adds so much charm to the game on top of everything else you mentioned. Thank you for this. This games deserves everyone's attention...hope is powerful.

    Great video and explanation. "Because of it you're unable to play more JRPGs" ^^ but also you're able to use the time you have to do exactly that. Basically, embrace what you have and make the most of it.

    A cousin of mine recommended this game to me, and wow am I glad I picked it up. It's just such a cosy game with good vibes =) If you liked "A Short Hike", I can recommend "Crato", "To The Moon" and "Venba", all short and heartwarming games with little challenge. I would say "Crato" is the most challenging of the bunch as there are some puzzles you need to figure out that I at least had a bit of difficulty with.

    A short hike just have the right feels for what I want. I feel extremely relaxed and happy just playing it. On top of the vibes, it just plays and is designed so well. I absolutely love it.
  • @ElieHaykal
    One of the best games to enjoy. Now I want to replay it :)
  • @Reapy108
    The conclusion of a short hike is the most satisfying one I've experienced in a long time. You'll know what I'm talking about when you finish it.

    Honestly? This is one of my favourite games. I made a friend of mine play it on my Switch and finished it in one sitting. Now it's one of her favourite games too. Do yourself a favour and play this game. It's short, sweet, fun, charming and cheap, you won't regret it

    I love what I have played of this game. After trying elden ring, starfield, tears of the kingdom, and persona 4, this was just a breath of fresh air and what I needed that evening
