What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to involve the community in the development of the game and get feedback before the official release. Since the game has an open world, cinematics, and interactive gameplay, it is important for us to hear player feedback to improve the atmosphere, balance, exploration mechanics, and level of fear.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 to 12 months, but this timeframe may change depending on the amount of feedback and necessary refinements.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The final version plans to:
• Add new locations to explore.
• Improve optimization for more stable operation on different systems.
• Expand story scenes and cutscenes for deeper immersion in the story.
• Add new puzzles, mechanics and objects for interaction.
• Improve enemy AI and the tension of horror moments.
• Improve sound and visual effects.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game already has:
• A basic storyline and an open world.
• Basic mechanics of interacting with objects, reading notes, and performing rituals.
• A screamer system and a horror atmosphere.
• Partially implemented cinematic scenes.
• Basic optimization for mid-range PCs.

The game is stable, but still in the process of being finalized, and some aspects need improvement.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, we plan to slightly increase the price after Early Access ends, as the game will have more content, improved graphics, and new features.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“• We are open to feedback through the Steam Community, Discord, and social media.
• Players will be able to test updates and leave their feedback so that we can quickly fix bugs and improve balance.
• We plan to jointly develop additional content - for example, a selection of additional locations or expanding the story.

We strive to make the game as high-quality and scary as possible, so your support and feedback are very important!”

About This Game

Add the game to your wishlist in time to get it at a discount.

Immerse yourself in the terrifying world of psychological horror, where fear lurks in the shadow of every tree. Your journey begins in a mysterious, gloomy forest hiding dreadful secrets. You must explore its uncharted corners, search for hidden objects, read cryptic notes, and perform ancient rituals that will reveal the truth… or drag you into even greater horror.

This first-person game transports you into a cinematic world where every sound, shadow, or rustle sends chills down your spine. There is no room for coincidence – everything you find, every symbol, and every note is part of a grand story unfolding before you. The open world grants you the freedom to choose where to go and which mysteries to uncover first.

But remember: you are not alone in this forest. Something watches you. Something follows your every step, yet appears only when you least expect it. Jumpscares, unexpected encounters, and the constant feeling of a supernatural presence make the game truly tense and unpredictable.

Can you make it through, uncover all the fragmented pieces of the puzzle, and discover the truth? Or will this forest become your final resting place? Only the bravest will complete this scenario and escape the nightmare brought to life before their eyes.

Average playtime is 50 minutes.

Your opinion about the game is very important to us: your advice and suggestions. I look forward to your feedback, and I will implement the best of your ideas in the next update.
