== Gameplay ==
Hilda: Johanna is a first-person graphic adventure game played in a first-person view. The game will focus on Johanna as the main protagonist playable character. Through exploration of the surrounding area, Johanna uncovers clues about mysterious occurrences in Trolberg and the wilderness that are related to the ransacking of her life while she is working on her social issues from her family relationship. The game encourages and rewards the player when they explore new areas of the house and search for new messages.
The player may choose from a number of dialog options to speak with her upon the discovery of new interactive objects or environments, or can refrain from communicating. The player's choices will influence the tone of Johanna's relationship with her family, friends, and Anders. As the story progresses, new areas will be opened up for the player, and certain events are set at different times of the day.
== Synopsis ==
The game tells the backstories of Johanna not having a best relationship with her parents, specifically with her mother, moving away from her home city into the wilderness all alone, how she meet her boyfriend Anders, and how she lost him when he left her, but how she also got Hilda. A free downloadable content (DLC) pack, Growing Up With Hilda, focuses on Johanna raising her newborn daughter, Hilda. Having a kid was the best thing that Johanna ever had.
== Price ==
The game will be costing at 30 U.S. dollars, 40 dollars Canadian, 45 Australian dollars, 30 euros, 25 pound sterling, and 4,536 yen on all platforms. The PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, Meta Quest VR headsets, and Steam. The game will be free to download for Xbox Game Pass members, PC Game Pass members, and PlayStation Plus members day-one. The game would also be available on Amazon Luna for 10 dollars a month while also being available for free for Amazon Prime members. Now with iPhones, iPads, and Macs, the game will also cost a full 30 dollars on those devices, similar to how much games like Resident Evil 8: Village, Resident Evil 4 Remake, and Death Stranding would cost on Apple devices like the iPhone 15 Pro and the newest iPad Pro.
== Steam Deck and Linux compatibility ==
The game would also be both playable and verified on Valve's Steam Deck devices depending on which model you have. Every Steam Deck device use SteamOS which is based on Linux. Since the Steam Deck devices use Linux, many games on Windows will work with Linux using both Wine and Proton. Wine and Proton are compatibility layers that translates Windows games and applications to work on Linux, and they work flawlessly. Most of Windows games will work on Linux and on Steam Decks via Proton, so there won't be a version specifically for Linux because… Well… There’s no need for it.
== Apple compatibility ==
The game on Apple devices uses 25 GB of storage. For installation, the recommendation would be having at least 50 GB of free space.
