Here’s some information about A Short Hike:
Set off as Claire and prepare to hike, climb, and soar through the peaceful mountainside landscapes of Hawk Peak Provincial Park. Explore the backcountry, meet other hikers, discover hidden treasures, and immerse yourself in the beautiful world around you in this relaxing and cute adventure game.
Key Features
Open world exploration… Explore the island any way you like. Choose your own path to follow and see where it leads you. You never know what you might stumble into!
Pace yourself… Hike at your own pace — there’s no need to rush to the summit! Take your time fishing along the river banks or swimming by the lakeshore.
Treasures await… Collect hidden treasures to reach new heights. Try taking a dive off the mountain peaks to soar above the forests.
The friends we made along the way… Chat with the other hikers you meet along your route. You might be able to help each other out!
The beautiful score… Listen to a lush original soundtrack by Mark Sparling that progresses dynamically as you explore the wilderness.
