Hidalgo is an adventure video game developed and published by Infinite Thread Games.

About

Hidalgo is the story of Don Quixote of La Mancha. In this game, you’ll accompany him through five vibrant chapters filled with engaging mechanics, alongside Sancho Panza and his donkey, Rucio.

At the same time, we’ll get to know the family who created this world. A mother juggling her job and her children, whose various challenges are reflected in the tabletop game, establishes a connection between both worlds.

Story

Throughout five chapters, you’ll relive the most iconic moments of the novel, playing as Don Quijote and Sancho. You’ll have the chance to battle windmills and even rule an island, all in the quest to win the heart of your beloved Dulcinea…

As we follow Quijote and Sancho on their adventures, you also uncover the story of a family of a single mother and her children. This family brings the world of Don Quijote and his story to life using recycled materials.

While the mother, absorbed in her work, barely has time for her children, she is unaware that they are facing serious problems at school, including bullying that one of them endures, as reflected in the figure of Don Quijote.

Together, they must navigate all the adventures and challenges of this classic tale while confronting a painful loss that will lead them to find strength in their family bond.

Key Features

• Environmental Puzzles – The main mechanics include third-person environmental puzzles in which you’ll have to coordinate Sancho and Quijote to solve them.

• Epic Boss Fights – Don Quijote and Sancho will face fiercely adorable enemies in family-friendly boss fights, products of Don Quijote’s imagination.
• Style – In this journey through a handcrafted La Mancha made from recycled materials and accompanied by music primarily played on Spanish guitar, this puppet world comes to life in a colorful, cozy, and relaxing style.
