Hazel Sky

Over a series of beautiful serene views and generally casual puzzles, Hazel Sky sets forth a young engineer’s introspective road to finding his true wish buried amongst his duties and desires. Despite the context of an engineer’s Trials, you will actually not learn much about what it means to be an engineer or even about the seemingly vast world of Gideon. The action tasks could get tiring to complete due to the constant need to hold the grip button in most cases too. Still, there is fun to be had sprinting across the open lands, swinging from the ropes, strumming the guitar strings, and singing along to the songs.

This game is terrible in every way. Whether we're talking major aspects of the game or simply minor little details, everything about it is awful.

“Hazel Sky” tries a bit too hard to create a more involved narrative that becomes more convoluted than it should be. Still, its main beats are heartwarming and lovely. One of those rare games where you sit and stare what you experienced for some good hours.

With a very competent level design, Hazel Sky offers a pleasant environment to explore and well-planned puzzles, combined with a well-conducted narrative that will make the player reflect on the game's universe. Despite the lack of punctual polish in mechanics and voice acting, the engaging story, the beautiful settings and the interaction of the characters make this short adventure an interesting experience.

In general, the exquisite island and level design of Hazel Sky can bring players a sense of achievement in constantly solving puzzles, and the process of exploring on a desert island is also pleasant, but the positive feedback provided by the game to the player after solving the problem is somewhat thin, and the fragmented narrative technique does not respond to the player's expectations in the plot, which is a pity.

Short but sweet, Hazel Sky is an entertaining little adventure with eye-pleasing vistas and some toe-tapping tunes.

Although it needs more refinement in its execution and more polish, Hazel Sky is a good proposal for a simple, touching and honest journey, being a good option for a few hours of a puzzle adventure.

This Atmospheric puzzle game reminds me of indie Uncharted / Tomb Raider mixed with The Witness and Rime and has some great puzzle mechanics. Hazel Sky is a great exploration puzzle game that will keep you occupied until you beat the game .

Hazel Sky, the new work of Coffee Addict Studio, has been a bit short. Its duration of 4 hours, more than enough, its beautiful cartoon section and its history, are ingredients that can make you give it a try. Even so, I must say that it is not a difficult game, so it will not be a great challenge.

Hazel Sky is a decent puzzle game with a charming art style, but there are some glaring presentation issues that are hard to ignore.
