You can walk and jump, but that’s about it. Gameplay: Let the butterflies lead the way The innocence, and the aid of those around you and their general willingness to help has made this game a completely unforgettable experience to me. Who are you? And are there any others? Your tiny character seems to be one of a kind, since you don’t ever meet a fellow fairy. Eventually your questions will be answered. It’s not in your face though, it just gently encourages you to learn the story of your past in a way which keeps you completely engaged. A gentle sort of encouragementįor a short game, Hoa packs a lot in. One of the many adorable friends you shall meet on your way. You are pure of heart, and even the elders of the forest suggest this. There just aren’t any negative intentions or connotations. I’d probably suggest that innocence is the best way to describe the character here. It’s well matched with the comforting soft pastel colours of your surroundings and appearance. Each character helping you on your journey recalls you being even smaller than you are, introducing a childlike innocence to the game. I will not mention any key elements to the storyline since I beg you to experience it all first hand without any spoilers, but there is extreme depth to the story. Even though you will be waking for the first time and hearing these tales of the past, I personally couldn’t help but feel connected to the characters claiming to have protected me. During this period of exploration, you meet an entire cast of fellow forest dwellers who spill their insight to the situation and their own experience with you prior to where the game begins. There is no description as to where you came from or why you are here, but you quickly dust off and begin your adventure. You awaken as Hoa, a tiny fairy who has arrived to land on a small leaf boat. Take a look for yourself, and understand what I mean when I say that this game is absolutely ethereal.ģ.1) Short but sweet Story: There’s Magic beyond the naked eye
If you’re searching for a world to immerse yourself into where nothing feels concerning, the gorgeous world of Hoa might just be for you. Every single element to it, from an incredibly peaceful soundtrack to a whole cast of friends to meet, is simply perfect. Hoa is an absolutely breathtaking puzzle-platforming game. As you can imagine I cannot contain my excitement and sheer adoration of this game for much longer. Luckily, Skrollcat Studios have developed Hoa, a game which allows players to experience that world firsthand. I always grew up with the belief that there was a world beyond the naked eye. I am definitely guilty of finding solace in imagining what life would be like if I was a fairy. A simpler time, where everything just seems at peace. What it would be like to befriend the bugs and jump across petals. There’s a time in everyone’s childhood where we question what life would be like if we were miniscule and lived amongst the earth.
