Hello Goodboy (Nintendo Switch) Nintendo Key - EU
Adventure in afterlife
Hello Goodboy is a heartwarming and enchanting adventure game that follows the story of Iko, a young boy who finds himself in the afterlife without any recollection of how he got there. With the help of Coco, a familiar dog, Iko sets out on a quest to unravel the mysteries surrounding his existence in this new realm.
As players journey through the afterlife, they will explore both unfamiliar and strangely familiar places, encountering other souls who are also on their own unique adventures. These encounters offer opportunities for Iko to extend generous favors to his fellow souls, fostering a sense of kindness and goodwill in the afterlife.
The game encourages players to engage in acts of kindness and compassion, as Iko strives to understand why he ended up in the land beyond in the first place. Through his interactions with others, Iko uncovers clues and pieces together the puzzle of his own journey.
Meet wonderful characters
In Hello Goodboy, players have the opportunity to befriend a variety of unique characters in the afterlife. Each character has their own story to tell and tasks that Iko can assist them with. From a lonely child to an anxious couple and an overworked lumberjack, these denizens of the afterlife present opportunities for Iko to make meaningful connections.
By helping these characters through their individual challenges and offering support, Iko fosters a sense of camaraderie and companionship. Once their problems are resolved, the game encourages players to relax and enjoy some comfort food together, further solidifying the bonds of friendship.
However, time is a limited resource in Hello Goodboy. Players must make careful choices about how they spend their time, as visiting certain characters may prevent them from forming relationships with others. These choices shape Iko's story and contribute to multiple possible endings, adding replay value and allowing players to explore different narrative paths.
