A New Color & Wonky 3D Platformer But Is It Worth Your Time? | Strange Hill [5-Min. Review]
If you saw promotional material for this game and thought it was a “Hello Neighbor” spinoff or something, I honestly wouldn’t blame you.
Strange Hill is a 3D puzzle-platformer that… really doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Strange Hill plays like a 3D jungle gym. Kid can run and jump his way around to find secrets, items, and puzzles to solve.
Strange Hill, sadly, isn’t the worst game I ever played. But all these devious little inclusions, like misleading map geometry, inconsistent AI behavior and hitboxes, and the endless FLOOD of ads, make it clear that the game is actively manipulating the player into opening their wallet rather than letting them have a good time.
