A classic flash game series given new life with new content, better animations and sounds, as well as some subtle background music.
Playing this was very nostalgic and reminded me of my childhood when I would play flash games.
10/10

It may look simple, but puzzles are quite challenging.

The simplicity and beauty of this game are what fascinated me as a child, and keep on amazing me 15 years after... But it's not only the nostalgia, one really has to admire that such an interesting game doesn't need text, tutorial levels or even the keyboard. The graphics are plain, but the possibilities conveyed by the great imagination of the author open the doors for an atmosphere of mystery and wonder.

Very cool to see this on steam. I remember this fondly from the time when "flash games" were popular on the Internet. Just be warned that the puzzles are very tough, I consider this almost unsolvable without a walk through.

It always makes me happy to see Flash games getting remastered or otherwise republished. Just because Adobe Flash is ending doesn't mean we have to lose out on all the games we loved in the 2010s.

I think that this remaster was executed beautifully, with more detailed graphics, the addition of several secrets, and the addition of second versions of each level.

Of particular note is Hapland 3, of which the Flash version I remembered as being very difficult. This remaster addresses this in two different ways: first, it removed several timed events, making the game less frustrating, and it also used its second version to create a “beginner's edition” rather than a harder version, which is a choice I appreciate. Hapland 3 also became equipped with a save-load system, which, in my opinion, goes against the purpose of the game, but is helpful nonetheless given that Hapland 3 is by far the hardest level.

Even if you have just played the Adobe Flash versions of Hapland 1 and 2, you'll love the additional quests available on the first two levels. And if you're struggling with the Flash version of Hapland 3, you'll love the changes made to the Steam version to reduce frustration.

I hope that the Steam version of the Hapland Trilogy will allow these games to live on for much longer than Adobe Flash would have allowed them to. It is very unfortunate that so many other great Flash games could not have had the same treatment…

Great work of converting and polishing flash game.
Still not sure if the puzzles or the boss was harder.

Hapland Rebelious Haiku Trilogy

I’ve heard this is a remake
Of an older game I didn’t know
I’m not upset

********

The challenges can seem
Unfair, evil maybe, the difficulty broke me
I raged inside

********

I thought I’ll die without knowing
If not for help from people who already suffered
I can be at peace

This is more than just the 3 original Hapland games!

There are 3 more tricky variants of the levels which are very fun plus a few more secrets to find.

If enjoy puzzle games I definitely recommend!

If you tried these games as a kid and thought you are too young to finish them, you were wrong. They are really hard to finish, but it's really worth to go through all levels and their variants, even just for the nostalgic trip.
