Whilst at first I didn't see it due to my misunderstanding of what the game is about, once I got into the proper flow, I found myself really excited about finding all the camps and completing all the hidden-object-style quests. That being said, one of the things that Haven Park did the best is the sense of exploration. This means that all the camps start looking alike quite quickly. Unfortunately, there aren't too many to choose from, and the areas are pretty small. Each one has a set amount of furniture you can use, and as far as I can tell, there's no limit. Although I did enjoy scouring the map to find them all, the building aspect left a lot to be desired, especially at first when I thought the title was mostly about decorating! You've got five categories you have to fulfil per camp, which include things like resting area, food area, and decor. You'll find a ton of them scattered throughout the island, and your goal is to find them all until you reach the last one at the peak to meet your grandma. The game's main objective is to walk around looking for campsites and fill them with amenities to attract more campers. Additionally, the perks help to lessen the grind of getting wood. They're not necessary, and you don't have to level up in order to unlock any new areas, but they do help a ton to speed up the building of the campsites around the park, which will allow you to chat with new campers. This - along with other activities you can do, such as just decorating the camps or finding chests - will give Flint XP so he can level up and acquire new skills. Although, for the most part, you do collect a bunch of stuff from the world to decorate and set camps, there are other things you have to do, and it is absolutely not as straightforward as I had originally assumed!Īs you walk around the area, you'll find a ton of broken things (such as lamp posts, signs, and vehicles) that you have to fix up by using the materials you collected. I feel that the game doesn't properly explain to you what to do, so I assumed you just ran around collecting materials and building up camps to make the park pretty. That being said, although Haven Park eventually grew into its shoes and opened up a beautiful and emotional journey for me, the beginning was terribly sluggish.
What first drew me in about this indie title was the fact that it's so similar to A Short Hike - from the "vibes" to the graphics I just loved it! I'm always on board with trying out more titles that give me the same feeling of relaxing fulfilment that I originally felt when I completed A Short Hike.
Haven Park is a charming adventure exploration game where you take on the role of Flint - an adorable little kid (chick?) who is trying to come to terms with the responsibility of taking care of his grandma's park. Reviews // 30th Mar 2023 - 1 month ago // By Violet Plata Haven Park Review
