This game is brimming with odd but lovable characters. The atmosphere is fantastic, and the world building is masterful. The story is a slowburner, and I mean that in the best sense. Finishing HH felt so rewarding, which is something that I normally don't get from easy games. 10/10 I highly recommend if you're looking for an chill game with a great story. It will leave you wanting more!
Harold Halibut is a gem made for a specific playerbase. It's not a game for those who generally skip dialogues. It's a kind of detective game for people who have an eye for details, patterns, traces and differences. It raises philosophical questions to think about. I love it because I can put myself in Harold's shoes. It's the first game I ever found with a protagonist like this. I was laughing and smiling all the time because I noticed things - certain things that wouldn't be noticed by someone who doesn't experience the world in a way Harold does. If you do, you are most likely what today is called "on the autistic spectrum". Harold has been leading a pretty dull life in the past, doing the only job he thinks he is capable of, compensating his mental confusion with a PDA device. Which seems to have been invented exclusively for him as a kind of medical aid. No one else on the ship is using one. He has learned to communicate with others, although he has this habit where he has to approach people in a certain way to be able to speak to them, often turning around before he actually speaks to someone. It looks like a glitch or awkward movement animation, but it fits Harolds personality so perfectly that it might even be intentional. Just like him taking only every second step on the stairs and always stumbling over the same tube on the floor. But then, things begin to happen on the Fedora. For the first time in his life, Harold experiences that his actions will affect the future of the community. I'm surprised hat there is little discussion about the ingame dialogue topics. Someone in the reviews called them "woke" and I think that is pretty accurate. Although for me personally, it is a pro. But people with a conservative world view will most likely not enjoy it. It did not surprise me that most of the thumbs down in reviews criticise the slow pace. Because it is slow. What surprised me is that so many people expected it to be faster or have more "game" elements. Because the description says it's a narrative game, the developer's name is literally "Slow Bros." and reading the reviews would also have given them an impression of what to expect. I absolutely enjoy the pace, walking around on the ship even if there is no quest that tells me to do that, and look for changes that might hint at what is going on in the community. Because there are things happening in the foreground, things that are talked about in quests, messages or cutscenes. But I always have a feeling that the things happening in the background are actually there some time earlier, and I can find hints before the questline finally sends me to those places. The storyline is linear, but there is a ton of things you will acually never see or know if you only follow the quests to "walk through". Those hints make it a kind of a detective game. On the ship there is something strange going on and my task is to find out what it is, who is involved, who is lying. The "fetch quests" that feel tedious for some are meant to lead you to places where you can find those hints. It's not about flipping a switch on the filters and then return. It's about the people you meet on the way, writings on walls, info boxes, advertisements... And this is why I don't think it would be better as a film. You need time to find certain secrets, and I really enjoy that "Harold Halibut" makes me use my fantasy instead of telling me everything right away.
Harold Halibut isn’t a game I’d recommend to everyone, but for players who prefer a narrative-driven experience over gameplay-focused mechanics, it’s a great little romp! The game is mostly a fetch quest/walking simulator, but the overarching story really outshines the lack luster gameplay loop. It is a great option for those wishing to unwind with a 1-2 hour gaming session before heading to bed. This game is definitely worth your time if you want a story to make you feel something. The music is also S tier in composition and emotional timing! Give this little German baked studio's game a shot!!
It's a very linear game with minimal interactivity, the gameplay is mostly pressing forward interspersed with a few mini games in between doing fetch quests in an enclosed level, practically a movie game. Not that it's a bad thing, the game looks nifty with a claymation look like Wallace & Gromit or The Neverhood and a very European writing style you'd see at the Sundance Film Festival. The themes are very navel gazing about peoples place in the world and interpersonal relationships, and the actual story seems very secondary to it's themes so don't expect some intricate narrative or fleshed out lore. I'd recommend the game if you want a low input game you can just experience and not have to think much about.
