“虽然剧情还是一如既往的”黑暗的故事和可怕的真相隐藏在美丽的风景中“,但是关键点在于“美丽的风景”不是吗,步行模拟游戏玩个啥,不就是沉浸式的游戏体验吗?从这方面来说,这款游戏确实是合格的,不论是阳光透过树叶洒在林地还是后期的黑化场景都很有代入感。至于游戏长度可能会有些不尽人意,毕竟制作组自己都说游戏短……

Reviews

“In summary, The Fabled Woods is a title that leaves the gameplay aside to tell a story. Its plot is brief but it does not fail to have an impact on the player because of its message and symbolism. It is a completely recommendable proposal for those who are interested in video games as a means of communication and an artistic form.”
8/10 – Guardado Rápido

PLEASE NOTE BEFORE ENTERING THE WOODS!


Hey everyone, I wanted to clear up some confusion. The Fabled Woods is a narrative short story. I designed the game to be comfortably enjoyed in one session without interruptions. Therefore, the average player more than likely won't take longer than 90 minutes to finish it. If that is too short of a game for you, I would recommend not purchasing The Fabled Woods. No hard feelings <3 Yours, Joe (CyberPunch Studios)

These woods hold the answers to your questions, everything will be explained soon, and this time, please pay attention.




Walk the path less travelled, and see what secrets hide among the trees...
