Hob Critic Reviews
View All (49 total)A gorgeous world eager to be explored with satisfying puzzles and fun, if occasionally clumsy, action.
Hob is a beautiful Zelda-like puzzler with fun combat elements that takes place on an enchanting world where nature and machinery alter the landscape as easily as a twist of a Rubik's cube. The wordless approach to the story creates some confusion and the fix camera sometimes results in unnecessary deaths, but never does the time spent with Hob feel wasted.
Intricate and ingenious, Hob is a true spiritual successor to A Link to the Past.
Hob delivers meaningful, wondrous exploration in an alluring and enigmatic world, but the combat and technical issues hold it back

All of that closed in rather simplified pleasant to the eyes graphic, what for me, only shows mastery of the authors. Further more this game create its own story in calm, silent way, giving you
