Hilda and the Forgotten Valley

Hilda: The Forgotten Valley is a platformer action-adventure game based on Luke Pearson's Hilda series of graphic novels as well as primarily the Netflix TV series. It was released on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows and macOS on March 27, 2020 and published by Smile Games.

Gameplay
The game is a 3D platformer akin to games such as Super Mario 64 and Banjo-Kazooie. However, the difference for this game is that it focuses on traveling from point A to point B.

The main playable character is Hilda, and the player will mostly play as her for the majority of the game. In some parts of the game, other characters such as Twig and Alfur are playable.

Plot
Hilda, her mum, Twig and Alfur are enjoying a picnic out from Trolberg. At one point, Hilda hears a mysterious voice. The voice was revealed to be a fairy-like Haltija named Kukka. Kukka tells Hilda that the Haltija reside in a forest that Trolberg has not yet touched. Meanwhile, a corrupt businessman named Nathaniel wants to cut down the forest that the Haltija reside so he can build a new shopping center. It is up to Hilda to stop Nathaniel and save Kukka and the Haltija.

Development
The game's story as well as characters were written and designed by Luke Pearson himself.

Originally, the game was planned to be a collect-a-thon but due to time constraints, it was changed to just reaching the goal.

Reception
The game scored a 8.4/10, with reviewers praising the game's faithfulness to novels and show, while issues such as a lack of co-op were criticized.
