The WhatsNext verdict

If you want a secret-dense metroidvania where movement upgrades keep opening up the map, Haak delivers its strongest moments through traversal and exploration. Play it for the platforming and backtracking, not for deep combat or consistently polished storytelling.

What it does best

  • Movement upgrades turn traversal into the main event

  • Every corner makes backtracking feel worthwhile

What might put you off

  • Combat can feel basic beside the platforming

  • Later exploration and presentation can wear thin
