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)

About This Game


A Visitor? Ahem. Hello there! Oh... It's you. What a surprise. Not a lot of other folks come and visit these parts.

You see, I came here to be with someone I let down long ago. Someone I thought I might find amongst these trees. That someone was my son. That’s enough about me, we’re here for you. 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...

Welcome to The Fabled Woods, a dark and mysterious narrative short story. Despite the picturesque beauty, ugly and terrible secrets lurk among the shifting boughs, darkness that no amount of dappled sunlight can erase.

Take the first step, and experience an unforgettable journey.



  • Three intertwining narratives to be uncovered, piece by piece, as you hunt for clues as to what happened
  • Explore at your own pace in an experience built from the ground up for fans of the puzzle free, death free storytelling in games such as Gone Home and Firewatch
  • Fully voiced, hear the characters as they impart their tales of strange going ons and mystery to you, the player, all set in a living world built in Unreal Engine technology
