   Adorable and comfy with a sprinkle of existential dread and dark humor

   The game itself works perfectly, however; the box art was a bit scuffed up, ripped, and taped back together. If you don’t care about the quality of the box, then this is a great way to save a few dollars!

   Originally I just wanted to play this one digital, but akiya-switch.com got me with their “Buy 2 Get 1 Free”. That’s why I picked up A Hat In Time and added to my physical collection!

   This game is pretty good and a great throwback to the N64 era. I really enjoyed playing this game!

   Cute and fun 3D Platfomer. -Story: You play as Hat Girl who due to a mishap looses 40 hour glasses from her fault which is needed to fuel for the ship get her home. It’s up to you to gather all 40. Main character is very cute and have an innocent yet energetic and childlike personality There are a lot of subplots as you venture through 4 separate worlds interacting with interesting and zany characters. Major dialogue are voice acted, and have a lot of witty banter between characters. -Gameplay: Platforming is very solid. Very generous, no need to precision jump most of the time. Camera gets in a way sometimes, but easy to re-orient yourself Combat is simple. Able to jump and attack with umbrella. There is a health bar/circle, but majority of the time you’ll lose health through environmental hazards, and boss AOE attacks There are some stealth segments where the enemies field of view is clearly shown Majority of the challenge is collecting certain items, figuring out simple puzzles, and finding out out where to go There are areas you are not able to go to in the beginning until you get new abilities or items Aside from collecting the main hour glasses, You also collect artifacts, yarn, and badges. Yarn is used to craft new hats for special abilities like infinite sprinting or throwing bombs Badges gives you buffs like magnetic attraction to close items/gems, and no fall damage. Badges are obtained through collecting gems throughout the worlds Levels are very creative with a lot of variety. You don’t feel like you’re doing repetitive task all the time Overall, I’d say it’s one of the best 3D platformers I’ve played. Highly recommended

   I normally play the Steam version, the switch version runs decently. The loading times are much longer but its nothing to worry about for a handheld version that includes the first dlc. The second dlc is available on the eshop. (Xbox and ps4 still dont have dlc)

   If you like super mario sunshine or 3D platformers from the 90s and early 2000s, this game is a must play! It borrows elements from psychonauts, rayman 3, dk 64 and other great games from the era. The story is very entertaining and funny at times. Its not a hardcore collectathon, more like super mario 64.

   Gears for breakfast and humble bundle worked hard to get this game working on the switch. Get a physical copy while you can! Its a great game for the switch.

   There’s a few minor issues (Crashes, lag and bad splitscreen) with the Switch version, but it’s a fantastic game anyway.

   ※先に書いておきますが、このゲーム自体は神ゲーです。
   ストーリーモードを6周した位ハマるくらい面白いゲームです。

   Steam版で滅茶苦茶ハマってSwitch版をプレイしてみたはイイものの
   ハードのスペックの差は当然ありますが、カクつきが目立ってプレイしにくく
   雨が降るチャプターは特に酷いです(雨降ってないし…)

   またSteam版はWorkshop対応でユーザーが作成したカスタムマップやMODがあるので
   もし本格的に遊びたいのであればSteam版で遊んだ方が良いです。
   最新DLCのVanessa’s Curseも遊べないので…

   (数日後Switch本体ごと売りました…すいません…)

    Recomiendo ampliamente este titulo puede que este en digital para otras plataformas pero tenerlo en fisico es un acierto rotundo. Si estas dudando en comprarlo no lo dudes es como jugar un Super Mario en 3 dimensiones y la verdad es un juego bien hecho. Podra no tener todo el contenido pero en jugabilidad, diseño de niveles, historia, y banda sonora todo es sensacional si has jugado Banjo Kazooie para Nintendo 64 la banda sonora te hara que la escuches una y otra vez. El unico pero que puede que le veas cuando lo estes jugando para Nintendo Switch pueden ser los tiempos de carga pero eso no deberia ser problema es comprensible.

    The product arrived in perfect condition. A Hat In Time is a 3D adventure platformer. You play as character referred to as “hat kid” who travels to different areas collecting hour glasses to repair her space ship for her to get back home. The story is pretty all over the place as well as the locations you visit and the characters you meet. This game does 3D platforming very well and it makes for a really fun experience. This also comes with 1 of 2 available dlcs (downloadable content), Seal The Deal, which has you on a cruz ship with a few new missions and it comes with a harder difficulty mode and challenges for you to do in each area. The dlc is ok, its a nice added treat though. The other dlc, Nyakuza Metro, is much better and is fuller in content. I highly recommend getting it once you are finished with the main game. The main campaign is pretty fair in length and there are tons of extras like collectibles and hidden levels to find. The mailing process was great and the game is a blast to play.
