It's a good game, but it would be better if there was a strangle button that I can use on my friends when they eat all the food like a greedy piece of lard

it’s really fun but missing a trick by not having lots of gore and blood because one of our pals doesn’t cooperate with the team and runs ahead of us and I really just need to see his head split open when he eats shit and falls 🧗‍♂️⤵️💥🩸

buggy but rlly fun with friends!!!!!!! i almost beat the game but died so i destroyed my pc and bulldozed my entire neighborhood

Had some fun time with my daughter. ironically i found it easier when she is the ghost, guide me the way and i climb it alone.....

Told my friends with panic in my voice that the lava is rising even though it wasn't, one friend panicked and died because of it. 10/10 game

this game is great it is a bonding time with your friend and they are like ahh help me so you help them and everyone is happy and its awesome

WARNING TO STREAMERS! People can HACK into your game! I attempted to stream this today with x3 other streamers and we all had to quickly cancel the game due to an unknown situation. First, when my group (me and three chill friends) loaded into the airport, there was another person with us. No name to them. They didn't talk. They stepped out of the elevator and immediately died and turned into a skeleton. After a moment, another skeleton spawned nearby. We thought this was very odd and unsettling but that wasn't the worst part. Second, once we got to the island was the real problem. The four of us ran ahead to find food, barely a minute or two from spawn. Suddenly, all of us had Megaphones in our inventory. At the same time, the megaphones blasted an audio file which was STRAIGHT UP racial slurs. Some of us immediately turned off stream. We muted, removed VODs, etc. and the x3 that were with me were very upset by this interaction. This reminds me of the Webfishing thing some time ago where someone was able to hack into lobbies, obtain IP addresses, and do all kinds of nonsense. It seems like Peak may be in a similar boat. I hope the devs can fix it because this is a wonderful game otherwise!

i love playing with my dad . especially when i die , i can guide my dad where to go and find our way up , and the ghost was very funny LOL .I think this game is really fun . we completed level three, then my dad died at the start , so i lost the compass and can't find my way up the mountain. i hope we can finish the fourth one . and pls comment me what is the frog plushi use for at the start? btw , i hope the game have more modes.

Its quality its even better with friends, buy it or dont I'm not your dad

Peak is one of the best games ive ever played, I watched my friend die because he lost his grip on a side of a cliff and fell 700 meters down. 10/10 game, game of the year.

PEAK this, PEAK that... I thought this would be a fun little adventure with friends turns out it's not PEAK... it's PAIN.

Just wish there was a way to pause the damn game when you play solo... When did this become the norm? It happens so often in games now. Really wish I could walk the dog or go out to buy groceries or cook a meal without losing a good run. Will change to recommend if fixed. Great game otherwise, truly.

Let me tell you something. I downloaded Peak thinking, “Oh cool, a chill little climbing game. I’ll vibe with some mountain air, get some virtual cardio, maybe find myself.” Instead, Peak found me, broke me, rebuilt me, and then threw me off a cliff because I missed a jump by half a pixel. Gameplay? Imagine the finesse of ballet, combined with the rage of untangling Christmas lights, all while clinging to a vertical rock face like a squirrel on espresso. One minute I’m gracefully scaling sheer cliffs like a majestic goat, the next I’m plummeting 300 feet because I accidentally hit the “yeet” button instead of “grab.” (Note: not the actual control names, but it feels accurate.) Physics? Impeccable. Too impeccable. The devs clearly majored in Newtonian trauma. If you thought gravity in real life was unforgiving, wait till you feel the shame of slipping off a ledge you just celebrated reaching, and landing back at the tutorial rock like a failure-flavored boomerang. Graphics? Beautiful. Serene vistas, dramatic lighting, and majestic peaks that mock you silently from above. At one point I paused just to look around and reflect on how small I was compared to the mountain. Then a bird flew by and I panicked, fell off, and screamed so loud my cat won’t come near me anymore. Sound? Calm, peaceful music… too calm. It’s like the game is trying to soothe you while you're actively going through all five stages of grief on the side of a cliff. I appreciate the effort, but no amount of peaceful ambient piano can mask the sound of my soul leaving my body after another failed jump. Multiplayer? Played with a friend. We started as supportive climbing buddies and ended as bitter rivals in a high-altitude passive-aggressive war. I left a banana peel at the base of his ascent. He took the rope when I needed it. Our friendship may never recover. Bugs? No major bugs, but I’m convinced the game has a sentient AI that knows exactly when I’m doing well and decides, “Nah.” Achievements? I unlocked one called “Oops.” I’m still not sure what I did. Probably fell off something important. Again. Peak is the kind of game that tests your reflexes, your patience, and your understanding of the human condition. It’s brutal. It’s beautiful. It’s bizarrely addicting. I came to climb a mountain; I left questioning every decision I’ve ever made. 10/10 would scream into the void again.

Perfectly passing on the experience of how I get to school every day Uphill both ways

Peak is a blast. It’s one of those games that makes you say “one more try” until it’s 3am and your friend is yelling at you in voice chat because they fell off the same cliff for the 12th time. At one point, my friend made it halfway up, bragged about how easy it was, then misclicked and yeeted himself into the void. I laughed so hard I fell too. 10/10, best co-op rage therapy. We’re both worse people now, but better gamers. Hard? Yes. Fun? Absolutely. Buy it and suffer with friends.

Not even 5€ and honestly? Already one of my favorite co-op memories. Played with Chris, Joey, and Phil. Phil actually made it to the top, while the rest of us were just three useless little ghosts floating around and screaming through proximity chat. The way your friend falls and the scream just gets quieter as they plummet? Never not funny. We were laughing the entire time. Helping each other up, failing together, blaming Joey for everything and somehow still surviving long enough to see new biomes. The game’s brutal, but not in a bad way. It makes every little win feel like a miracle. It’s janky, yeah, but in that charming “let’s do one more run” kinda way. And the map changes every day, so there's always something new to mess up. TL;DR: We didn’t reach the peak. Phil did. The rest of us just screamed a lot and had the best time. 10/10 would get ghost-carried again.

I wanna enjoy this game but it keeps crashing and killing my pc. barley ingame when it will hit a black screen and completely kill my pc. Will change review when problem is fixed.

it's Peak spawn on beach, find trumpet, read and lose the guidebook, friend dies, i walk into spiky plant and die. 10/10 would Peak again.

PEAK is PEAK. I absolutely love this game, have been playing with my friends and it's one funny bit after the other. Even though I mostly suck at this, it always feels so good to play. This game is extremely polished, the items are very thought and contribute a lot to the climbing, the handholding mechanic is AMAZING, the weather adds a challenge to the game, the obstacles that can cause you to fall all the way down, man... Everything was so well done in this game. I just remember one time I simply couldn't hold my laughter when I fed a friend o'mine a banana, slipping right on the banana peel that spawned at his feet, all while standing close to a cliff and disappearing in the fog as he falls to his DOOM. THIS GAME IS TRULY PEAK.

Do you also have that one friend climbing as if there are no tomorrows and then wonders why they were thrown off a cliff, we should put them together in a game and see what happens

The EULA requirement has been removed. If it isn't reinstated, I can recommend this game. It's fun with friends for multiple runs. Definitely has plenty of replayability for a little $8 game. There are some issues in regard to proximity chat and semi-frequent disconnections, however I've had stable runs with others that don't have these issues. However, the devs have stated that they are reworking the EULA, so its removal doesn't seem to be permanent (hence why this review is remaining negative until the final revised version of the EULA is released to see if the section previously complained about has been changed or removed.) ----------------edited 7/3/2025------------------------ Original review: Had this review been made 4 days prior, I would have recommended the game, no questions asked. The game itself is fun, buggy, but fun. However, due to the shoehorning of a EULA two weeks after release onto their player base, I cannot recommend this game. This is the primary problematic excerpt from the current EULA as of writing this review that has prevented me from both agreeing and being able to continue to play the game: Under Section 18 Intellectual Property Rights: "You hereby irrevocably, and without additional consideration beyond the rights granted to You herein, assigns to Landfall Publishing any and all right, title and interest that You may have, including copyrights, in or to any and all information, user exchanges, transmits or uploads while playing the Game, including without limitation all files, data and information. The assigned rights include the right to lease and assign the rights and make changes to the information and materials etc. To the extent that any such rights are not assignable, You hereby grants Landfall Publishing an exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable, assignable, royalty-free, paid in full license, fully sub-licensable through multiple tiers, to exercise all intellectual property and other rights, in and to all or any part of such information and materials, in any medium now known or hereafter devised." There is no reason that I should have to agree to give the developers the rights to my data and files WITHOUT limitation in order to play a game which I bought and played a week prior without having to agree to the same terms. There is nothing in the excerpt that specifies that the data and files for which the rights are being granted to Landfall are related to the game, rather, the language is sweeping and vague. What files and data is this relegated to? Does it include voice calls, text chats, and other programs unrelated to the game that may be running "while playing the game"? Based on the language of the EULA, I have no clue. When entering into a legally binding agreement, I'd rather err on the side of caution. Elucidation on this excerpt from a developer in case of misinterpretation/misunderstanding would be greatly appreciated. However, as it stands, until this part of the EULA is amended to be more clear and less broad, or removed entirely, I can not recommend purchasing this game.

Watched my friends fall to their death. Bing Bong is essential to all trips. 10/10 would fall to my death again.

After enjoying this experience, I find myself at a crossroads. You see, the title of this game is Peak, alluding to the objective the player undertakes through the experience: attempting to scale to the supposed “peak” of the mountain. However efficient the title is in conveying the game’s ambition, its simplicity leaves me with a tragic challenge when dealing with the aftermath. The average player, with an understanding of modern colloquialisms, could easily spot a clever correlation between the title and the slang term “peak,” often used to describe a thoroughly enjoyable thing, one that’s on par with the very best. Herein lies my dilemma: do I, in favour of brevity and resonance with the Steam community, leave a witty review comparing the two meanings and describe them as one and the same? For example: “Peak is peak.” It’s clever, surely it would garner a few thumbs up from passing users who hadn’t yet made that connection themselves. They might smile and think, “How clever, if only I’d thought to boil my thoughts down into such a snappy sentence.” And yet, can I dare assume such a simple observation is uncommon in the minds of others? Nay, I mustn’t. To do so would be to give in to the baseline originality so beloved of modern consumerism. One must dare to look beyond the walls of plain wit and dull showmanship, beyond dry truths and black sarcasm, past the folly of assuming that sheer observations framed in precise ways are the secret truths to the human soul's understanding of the world! Nay! I will not succumb. There is beauty in the complex cosmic web of creation, the cycle of consumption that breeds creations. creations that go forth to breed consumption, breeding more creation. One must not yield to the temptations of simplicity, destroying the foundations of creativity, foundations built upon the history of art throughout all time. Built upon humanity’s collective experience, shared through love and the eternal human desire to push forward and improve. Nay! You must not! Do not be enslaved! Push forward and be great! Push upward and climb to the top! Push onward and reach the peaks of what the mortal body and mind are capable of! Only this peak is worthy of comparison to the true brilliance of Peak. Only this! There is no peak higher. No peak at all.

I wanted to like this game but I think it has more faults than it is worth and many aspects of it are just incredibly frustrating. Similar to Content Warning, I think once it gets to a certain point It's just unreasonably difficult to progress. I was never able to get past day 2 or 3 on that and I can't get past the 3rd biome on here. With fall damage it seems like sometimes you can fall 20 feet and not take any damage and other times you fall 10 feet and get absolutely obliterated, dying when you really shouldn't have. Many aspects just feel far too punishing and not rewarding in the slightest. On top of this while I recognize the game is in Beta still, there are more bugs than I've experienced on most other Beta games especially ones that lead to a full crash requiring you to close and re-launch the game. I feel that more often than not there are far too many obstacles on just about every path, and you're limited on your strategy because of the fog rising. To be completely honest I don't even know if the fog should be a mechanic as I feel like it would be more enjoyable if I could take my time and actually mess around with friends especially considering there's already more than enough to worry about outside of that, at the very least I feel like it should be much slower moving. There is quite a bit more I could say but really I'm just a bit disappointed with how I see the things that I did not like in Content Warning making a reappearance here and I feel it should be more balanced instead of ridiculously difficult, most of the time I am playing with others and working together and we still cannot get past the Alpine. It often frustrates everyone in the group and you can really only play a couple matches before you get fed up with the way the game functions and having to start all over again because of one small thing. Would just love to see some improvements and have the game be a bit less punishing and a bit more fun.
