A Hat in Time

Gears for Breakfast video game is lacking in the grace with which Rare and Nintendo itself endowed their games in the nineties. It’s too simple, too typical … until it ceases to be. And do not wait long to prove it. After the initial missions completed, the first com

missions completed on a crazy island populated by mobsters, this video game successfully funded on Kickstarter begins to show all its virtues, which are not few precisely, making it clear that it is more than just a tribute. The references to the classics are there, they can be seen constantly, but they do not limit themselves to repeating what they have seen so far in the genre.

Fun, exciting and, above all, intelligent in the way in which it poses its challenges, this videogame of action and platforms always seeks the way to surprise and it succeeds !, creating challenges with personality , witty, that in one way or another

They end up drawing a big smile on your face. You can not ask for more to a game with these characteristics. It is pure love; a waste of imagination with which it is incredibly easy to have fun. Therefore, I insist, you should not let yourself be c

arried away by first impressions. Its start is somewhat warm, it really makes you expect the worst given the simplicity with which you overcome your first missions, but once A Hat in Time gains momentum there is no stopping you !, transporting you to a

colorful and varied fantasy worldin which everything is possible. Even participate in the crazy shooting of a movie. And it’s not the strangest and funniest thing you’ll do in this adventure.

Each hat gives the heroine special abilities without which it will be impossible to overcome some missions.

In addition, since the heroine has to her credit several hats with special powers, you can always retrace your steps to discover new challenges. What is amazing! Increasing speed, creating explosive potions or using a hook to reach otherwise inaccessible ar

eas are just some of the skills that the protagonist has, who can also gain some special advantages by using a series of badgesthat it will be necessary to buy previously and, more important, to equip with head, because we can not jump to the action with all of them active. Elements that provide depth to an adventure platform that, if something falls in love, is the crazy design of some of their missions. I said it before; Do not be fooled by your initial comp

asses. From jumping and crushing enemies without any reason, you will pass to solve crimes in a series of missions where stealth will be important or, to escape in a hurry of great dangers with a tone that borders on the epic.

The variety of scenarios is commendable but the best is how the game creates challenges that take advantage of the theme of these worlds.

Too bad that, in general, the Gears for Breakfast video game is not especially difficult. Any amateur with some experience in the genre wi

ll overcome without many problems most of the challenges posed by an adventure that, also at specific moments, leaves you wanting more. The bases are impeccable but it is not always possible to get the most out of the many game possibilities o

ffered by this platforming adventure so typical of the times of Nintendo 64. The good news is that A Hat in Time, in one way or another, It encourages you to explore your game worlds with an unusual passion, thanks also to the large number of extra items and hidden tre

asures that you can find during this crazy trip that also has a good plot base. It’s not that the storythat is narrated – in perfect English – is original or anything like that, but if I liked something, it is how the missions are created creating situations as crazy as they are intelligent, also thanks to the presence of a good cast of secondary characters .
