Another peaceful game that nearly made me die on the inside. Lots of exploring to do and about 3 hours of playtime. I had a fun time but there is a secret that gave me like 20 different headache types - beware!

I love this game, it's one I always come back to. Massive world to explore with hundreds of secrets, no time or combat pressures it's just a lovely game, I wish there were more like it.

HIiro is a very calm game with a focus on exploration and discovery. While there are a few puzzles to solve, most of the game is simply exploring the world and collecting objects along the way. The music helps set the mood as relaxed and tranquil, and the game provides some hints to tracking down remaining collectibles, so finding everything is an achievable task, even without outside resources. The main complaint I have with the game is that if you plan to get all the achievements, the final achievement requires completing a secret mini-game, which is of a completely different genre from the rest of the game, and is by no means easy. It is doable, but probably a third of my playtime is spent on that minigame alone. It doesn't prevent me from recommending the game as a peaceful experience, but it does take away from that mood a little.

The start:- What i liked about this game they used the story + walkthrough to show you what you can do with the player before you start the game, that's kinda an intresting element of the game, and i also i loved the story which it doesn't require any single words "show & don't tell" way, everything was crystal clear and also the game showed you what kind of things you collect to save that tree
Gameplay: what i liked about it that, the autmosphare was really smooth gives the mood to explore the areas in this game i managed to continue without any problems, while I keep climbing on the trees the game shows me the story while I keep exploring, it doesn't require any cutscenes which is what i liked about the game. it's really intresting, looking forward to know more about the game
what i disliked about the game that, but it's not much of the big deal that finding locations of the keys inside the treasure in order to get on to the next level. but if it was intentional that's fine. i would wish the game make some hints to tell me where the keys are if took me too long in the same level. it would been the best way to upleft me to finish the game much faster that's all i have to say.
and i recommand you to give this game a shot, i hope i gave this game a good feedback

A highly enjoyable, relaxing exploration game: you're free to go where you want on the map, in any order, right from the start. There are no power-ups to collect and only one area that requires you to unlock a door to it first. The music blends seamlessly from one area to the next, matching the theme of that area well, and there are lots of secrets to be found (hint: look closely for differences in walls and floors) Absolutely recommended!

A small and very well done game inspired by / in tribute to Nifflas' Knytt series and other exploration platformers. Well worth the tiny price.

If you enjoy exploration platformers like Knytt, An Untitled Story, and Seiklus, you will most likely enjoy this charming little game. It didn't take me very long to 100% and that's probably a good thing as it didn't feel like the experience dragged on at all. I was able to find most of the collectibles myself and only needed to read a hint for a couple specific things. The game also does a nice job of giving visual hints for where to get the remaining collectibles. The environments are mysterious but relaxing and the whole experience was nice and comfy. One secret ending might be very challenging depending on the player (it's the only instance of combat in the game) but the rest of the game is pretty forgiving reactions-wise. All in all, it would be hard not to recommend this game, especially at this low price point.

A very relaxing platformer about collecting bits of energy (I guess) to save your village. It is nothing complex, but it is deceptively easy. On one hand, there are obvious bits that you can pick up right away, then there are hidden rooms that require you to pay attention to the environment, and then there are well hidden collectibles that only the keen find.
The game's world consists of I think eight diverse biomes you can freely traverse and explore. It is big enough to have lots of nooks and crannies for you to find, but small enough that going to the other end of the map is not obnoxious. Puzzles are not difficult, yet there is still a sense of achievement in solving them. It is also important that every biome has it's own music so it does not get obnoxious.
TL;DR: If FEZ and Knytt had a baby, this could be it.

Hiiro Is a nice and little game which came playable when people voted for it on Greenlight.
Pros.
1:It has calm/relaxing music through out the game.
2:The devolopers knew that the game could be enhanced by a game controller so they bothered to put controller support in this just means that they listen to the fans(Thank You).
3:It has tons of places to explore like the forest or the depths of the deep blue sea.
4:It's a game to play when you waiting for something to download or just to fill time.
5:The Graphics are nice.
Cons.
1:The Visibility isn't the greatest (Camera Angles NOT GRAPHICS).
2:The Keyboard controls arn't so well (like they could've used WASD for movement and The buttons on the mouse for inventory and use but they only use the keyboard for the controls, like if the mouse was in the game it would make browsing easier, Personal Hate Don't judge).
3:They have the D-Pad on the Controller for movement that is alright but i think it could've been better with the Left Trigger for movement not the D-pad.
8.7/10
This is a very nice game which deserved to be on steam and by looking at it since the devolpers listen to the players of the game they could possibly get rid of the cons on my list.

Hiiro is a 2D platform game focused on ambient exploration and puzzle solving. Discover a grand world filled with mysterious artifacts and forgotten ruins.
The game is a story told without words, so much so that the title and credits are the only points at which any text appears at all. Though there isn’t any writing, the story is conveyed well through visuals and symbols; the tree in the middle of the protagonist’s floating village is dying and all the other villagers are fading away with it, but a golden cube in the world below can somehow save everything.
Overall, the textless design of the game is handled extremely well and it fits perfectly with the completely freeform style of exploration.
A relaxing 2D game for the fans :)
