She developed a ring called Annular Spectrum which allows perception and alteration of impossible colours, beyond the human spectrum.
She was deceived by the traitorous professor Dr.
Grey she fell in love with and has now become invisible, as a shade of such as impossible colour.
It is up to Hue to restore the ring and bring her back by collecting the many scattered coloured shards.
The game consists of a large, 2D side-scrolling world where different environments are linked together through doors.
The game uses a silhouetted art style which is initially monochromatic.
Soon Hue discovers his first colour, which is added to a ring-like circle that can be summoned at any moment, as one of many bright colours.
Eventually eight colours can be collected: aqua, blue, lime, orange, pink, purple, red and yellow.
These are used for the main gameplay mechanic as the player can switch between them on the fly, even in the middle of actions as time is slowed down extensively during the selection.
Changing a colour brings it into the environment, colouring almost anything.
This mechanic is for instance used to discover hidden doors.
Obstacles, barriers and other elements often have a specific colour and when Hue switches colours to match it, it disappears into the environment as if it was never there.
The simple mechanic quickly becomes more complex due to moving elements, the ability to push and pull objects, platform-based puzzles, fast sequences and so on.
While Hue can jump and there are some general elements such as ladders or deadly spikes, almost every area needs to be approached as a puzzle that can be solved without time pressure.
With each new discovered colour puzzles become more complex.
There is also a minor metroidvania aspect to it as any area can be revisited, but mainly to open up passages leading to beakers as an optio
About PlayStation 4
The PlayStation 4 (2013) cemented Sony's dominance of the eighth console generation, with a library exceeding 30,000 titles once indie and digital-only releases are counted. Most PS4 games remain affordable for collectors, but limited physical print runs — particularly from smaller publishers and later in the console's life cycle — are starting to see steady price increases as digital storefronts eventually wind down support.
Gamevaro tracks Hue for PlayStation 4 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Hue to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS4 release dates back to 2016.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Hue, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation 4 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
