About This Game

Thrown into the Cursed Forest for your past crimes, you have nothing but a fire to see and a sword to defend against the vile creatures that lurk within its shadows. You must balance combating the monsters and maintaining your tools until the end of each progressively intense night, because even a single misstep spells your doom. 

Creatures of the Forest

Face up to four aggressive monsters, each with their own personality and attack patterns. They will show no mercy, they will not leave without force, and they will one-shot you if not careful.

The Lonesome Camp

As the fire fades, the darkness closes in. It is up to you to stoke the flames, sharpen your blade, and look towards the skies for whatever might be looking back. 

Custom Night

Beat Night 5 to enter the Custom Night, where you can scale the difficulty of each creature to your liking. Good luck in CHAOS mode though, because I can't even beat it.

Other Stuff!

Piece together the confusing lore written in my horrible handwriting, learn how to draw both the knight and creatures for your math notes, and unveil like four secrets throughout your stay in the Cursed Forest.
