About

The Forest is a simulation, indie, action, and adventure game developed and published by Endnight Games Ltd. It was released on April 30, 2018. Players can enjoy this game in single-player, multiplayer, or co-op modes. The Forest is a first-person survival horror simulator where you play as the sole survivor of a plane crash. You must fight to stay alive against cannibalistic mutants in a mysterious forest. The game features a world where every tree and plant can be chopped down. Players can explore a vast network of caves and underground lakes beneath the surface. You can build a camp by chopping down trees or start a fire to keep warm. Scavenging for food is essential to prevent starvation. Players have the option to construct small shelters or large fortresses, even ocean-side ones. Traps and defenses can be set up to create a safe perimeter around your base. During the day, players can explore and build, but at night, they must defend their base from enemies. Weapons and tools can be crafted, allowing players to either bunker down during the evening or directly confront the enemy. The main story of The Forest takes approximately 16 hours to complete. If you include extra content, the playtime increases to 28 hours. A completionist playthrough, which involves finishing all aspects of the game, can take up to 58 hours.

The Forest Critic Reviews and Review Scores

I've never been terrorized, stalked, or fascinated by enemy AI quite like I was in The Forest. It's a harrowing survival ordeal that knows how to play with tension and create the sense of a real world with complex inner workings and mysteries I was eager to discover. It's I Am Legend told in the depths of the hinterlands, with a meaningful story progression that doesn't overstay its welcome. Disregard the warnings on the walls and hidden between the trees at your own peril – and if you want a unique and memorable survival horror experience, then you should absolutely dare to do so.
