Aug 30, 2024Hauntii takes players on an emotional journey filled with haunting visuals and thoughtful storytelling, but it starts off slowly. The game’s unique atmosphere and engaging narrative eventually draw you in, making the wait worthwhile. While the pacing may be a bit sluggish at first, it’s an adventure that rewards patience with a deeply affecting experience.

Jun 17, 2024Hauntii does a fantastic job of providing a smaller scope adventure across an enigmatic underworld. Collecting stars and haunting varying enemies gave a sense of discovery around every turn. It’s beautiful in its delivery and make-up, but that’s what also holds Hauntii back: its restricted scope. It doesn’t dream big enough for what could have been. The gameplay, while fun and engaging, is super limited. Haunting and shooting aren’t enough to keep you hooked. When reflecting on my time with Hauntii, I think about the music and the art, and less so on how it played. Hauntii is a breathtaking experience, but it just doesn’t do enough with it. This game makes a compelling case for videogames as art, but it stops short when it comes to the actual mechanics.

Jun 10, 2024Hauntii is an amazing game that needs some more work on Nintendo Switch. The technical issues hold it back, but it is still worth your time and money. I recommend playing it on another platform if you have that option though. If you are ok with some performance issues, it feels right at home on Switch in handheld mode.
