Its amazing: cozy, hilarious, cute, exciting, filled with colourful furry creatures.
Silly fun little game. As a sucker for Samorost and Machinarium, this scratches the itch. It's also got delightful narration a la David Attenborough and whimsical "voices", animations and names for everything. You go around solving puzzles in unexpected ways, often involving wacky alchemical potions. It's still a little rough around the edges and I did experience a couple crashes, so wait for some bug fix updates before you sit down and play.
El juego es divertido y engancha, aunque hay que tener agudeza visual y paciencia. Es importante esperar cuando aparece el símbolo del reloj y no tener prisa, porque si clicas en ese momento es bastante probable que se buguee el juego. Me pasó muchas veces en el puzle final y es un rollo repetir el nivel entero, porque el autoguardado va por niveles completos. Lo recomiendo para los pequeños de la casa, acompañados por un adulto para los puzles más complicados. Mi gameplay con subtítulos en español: https://youtu.be/9EtOAURIwE8
This game was a treasure. It's a puzzle game and a scavenger hunt game and an adorable little whimsical story of the like that you don't see very often. If you want a fun time with just enough slapstick and irreverence to keep you from taking things too seriously, this is definitely your game. The art is adorable, the narrator never skips a beat, and a lot of the puzzles are really clever. Give it a try!
A charming little hidden object and click to do narrative stuff game. Looks nice, sounds nice, very relaxing.
This is such a quirky and fun game, I love the art and the narration! The entire game has a chaotic vibe that I enjoy, it kept me smiling throughout the experience, even when I got confused by puzzles. The only thing I am not a fan of personally are some of the sounds being too loud or uncomfortable to listen to but that could just be my own sensory issues. Overall feels like a game that was fun to work on and it was nice to see where the story went! :)
It's really adorable and fun game, I feel as if David Attenborough is taking me on a cave adventure :)
This has been an amazing experience! Everything about this game is either perfect, or very close to! The visual style is amazing, often mesmerizing! Animations are plentiful and they're very fun to interact with. Game design is very creative and often got me to chuckle :) Music and audio effects are excellent, set the mood well and complement the animations really nicely. And last but not least, the English narrator is a treat! At first I thought this was a children's game, and I suppose that is the primary target audience, but I found myself quickly lost in this world, an adult close to 40. So don't let the art style turn you away. If you've ever played Amanita Design's games like Machinarium or Creaks, you'll feel right at home. This game gives very similar vibes. I think the game can improve some of the following to make it an even better experience: * I would love a button to repeat the last subtitle, as it often contains clues I missed on the first listen. * Sometimes the game doesn't save well. I ended up having to re-do a puzzle when relaunching the game * If you could get the game to work in native 4K or higher, I think it would look even better. PS: Played this on Debian Linux using Proton, no issues, everything was smooth and stable.
Really enjoyed this little game. The narrator is really incredible and the puzzles are fun. Art style is really consistent and I loved trying to find all of the cards.
Cave hikers is a nice, relaxing adventure game with hidden object elements. The best aspects for me were the colorful graphics/art style, those cute, sympathetic characters, and the humor. The English language narrator of the story is very good, it's obviously an actor. It's good that the puzzles are intuitive and easy, which is not the case in many adventure games nowadays. In Cave Hikers, everything can be solved relatively easily. For every puzzle it becomes clear very quickly what you have to do, and for some of them you have to try a few times in order to move on, like in the last puzzle sequence, but in the end you will succeed and you will feel a sense of accomplishment because no you tube walkthrough will be needed. The game seems to be made especially for children and young people, or for families so that parents can play with their own children. The game is very short. The story could have been developed a little more and it ends abruptly, in my opinion. For example, it's not explained who the Cave Hikers are and why they decided to go on that adventure? What is their motivation/quest? To conclude, I recommend this game to people who want to rest and relax between 2 long and tiresome games. Also to people who love the adventure and hidden object genre and to parents who want to play a relaxing game with their children.
