What We Think

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

A Hat in Time keeps its focus on whimsical platforming and fun, not checklists. Diversity isn’t pushed front and center, the main character is a young girl, but her personality and journey are the actual point. The story doesn’t feel hijacked by identity politics; it’s charming and light-hearted throughout.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The game doesn’t take swings at tradition, masculinity, or family life. It doesn’t comment on religion or try to rewrite cultural traditions. Gender roles are a non-issue here: characters are quirky and playful rather than political statements. This is as non-woke as it gets on the cultural foundations axis.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

No ideological preaching or monoculture in sight. The diverse cast fills classic cartoon archetypes and doesn’t spend any time lecturing. Dissenting or traditional perspectives are not mocked or villainized, mainly because such themes aren’t addressed at all. For once, a game just lets you have fun.
