About This Game

Darkwood offers a fresh take on survival horror. Experience terrifying top-down survival horror gameplay. There are no tutorials or objective markers; test your abilities and solve problems on your own. During the day, explore the procedurally generated, ominous woods, gather resources, create weapons, and uncover hidden mysteries. At night, find safety, build barricades, place traps, and hide or fight against the darkness. Acquire new skills and perks by extracting a weird essence from mutated flora and fauna and injecting it. Beware of unforeseen side effects. Choices made will affect Darkwood's world, its people, and your story. Encounter strange characters, listen to their tales, and choose their fate. Remember—trust no one. As nights pass, reality and nightmares merge. Are you ready to enter Darkwood?
