HAAK 12+

I stumbled upon HAAK while looking for games similar to Super Metroid and Castlevania: SotN, and I’ve gotta say it delivers. It’s reminiscent of Hollow Knight in its platforming elements, and I’d say it’s a bit more heavy on puzzles than combat. Despite that, the combat is not bad, and the bosses are great fun, although they do have room for improvement, as their move sets can be a bit predictable and simplistic. The use of environmental hazards during fights can feel a bit unfair at times, but overall the combat feels very balanced and rewarding. The story is interesting, and the character/environment designs are charming. I highly recommend this game, with the caveat that you should definitely plan to use a Bluetooth controller. The biggest flaw of this game is that, as of writing this review, they haven’t announced a sequel.

Solid game. Probably one of the better games on iOS. Top ten in my book for mobile games. Doesn't have that mobile game feeling. Great soundtrack and sounds. Great storyline. Very good graphics and effects.
However it was far too easy in my opinion when it came to the bosses, coming from years of gaming (grown up playing nes, super nes, pc, etc) but for someone newer to gaming might find it hard. They could of added more fighting than platforming. I am also a snob when it comes to gaming, and realize that not everyone that is gonna play this will have a controller.
Other than that its a really well done game that the developers should be proud of. Look forward to more games by the developers.

I’ve been a huge fan of the Metroidvania genre and this game really surprises me with the high quality. This console-quality game just check all the boxes a good Metroidvania game should have:

* Great storyline and settings
* Well-crafted maps and level design
* Smooth actions and controls
* Huge variety of skills/moves to unlock
* Lots of collectibles

Other than the points mentioned above, it also features a quest system that you can get quests from NPCs or during explorations, and these quests are not just beat these monsters or collect these items. These quests are actually supported by stories and help you progress the game or understand more about the settings.

I would highly recommend this game to any Metrovania lovers and would highly recommend to play it with a physical controller as it might become challenging in later stages of the game when you need precise inputs at a really fast pace.
