The Forest is a gripping first-person survival horror game where you play as the lone survivor of a plane crash, stranded in a mysterious forest teeming with cannibalistic mutants. With an AI Community Rating of 88.9%, this game has captivated players with its immersive world, where every tree can be chopped down, and vast underground caves await exploration. Build shelters, craft weapons, and defend against terrifying enemies with beliefs and families that make them eerily human. Players praise its stunning visuals, engaging survival mechanics, and the thrill of co-op play with friends. However, some note issues like tedious resource grinding, occasional bugs, and a lack of endgame content. If you love survival games with a mix of building, exploration, and horror, The Forest offers a thrilling, albeit imperfect, experience worth diving into.
Journal Entry 1 After crash landing I have gathered all resources at the plane, walked a short distance from the crash and found a nice hill to build fire and setup camp. Journal Entry 2 I went down to the beach and started fishing, found lots of beer bottles in the sand, I even found a tent pitched on the beach... where is everyone?? Journal Entry 3 While setting up camp I saw a group of 3 tribesmen doing a beach patrol in the area where I was fishing, I didn't engage only observed them. Its getting dark now and I know now that im not alone. I'm not sure of these tribesmen's intentions but Its starting to rain and I need to build a shelter. I'm going to the woods to collect some logs. Journal Entry 4 While heading back with a fresh cut log I noticed multiple lit torches heading towards my camp, about 12 of them from what I counted, Indeed it appears there are many more tribesmen than I originally thought. They appear to be scanning my camp looking for survivors. Journal Entry 5 After observing the tribesmen for 10 or so mins I approached one of the females of the pack, she stared at me in shock for about 30 seconds then screamed and ran away. She did not attack... perhaps they are a friendly people after all! Journal Entry 6 I should have just left them alone, apparently the female ran back to get the rest of the tribe.... I was attacked and chased, I was able to kill three of them before accidentally backing up off a cliff and falling to (what I thought was my death). Journal Entry 7 I have awoken in a cave of hanging bodies, I am badly injured from my cliff fall and only have my terribly lit Bic lighter to guide my way through the cave.... this may be my last journal entry as I am starving and going to die soon.... Thank you... Endnight games.
The gameplay its great for a survival game, pretty realistic but in a fun way. The secrets of the island make it intriguing and the caves are scary af specially if you explore them alone, as well as the nights. I like that it has various endings to choose depending on the person. The achievements are doable if you want to get the 100% which is nice. Overall a great game, I would definitively recommend it.
saw a few playthroughs of this back inh 2017 and found the game interesting, bought it now that i have a good computer and even with the spoilers i knew of its a great game. Havent been attracted by any other survival games that much but this one has had me hooked for the last two weeks. The game doesnt force you to do specific things or develop through the story but youll still have to if you want any actual good weapons/tools. Easy once youve gotten yourself some cave loot and built a solid base. Only downside is that once youve been in all caves, completed the story, gotten the artifact ball and built a good base theres not much else to do except for build new things or farm for different items. Overall a great game imo, would def recommend.
The Forest is a survival horror masterpiece! It brilliantly combines intense survival mechanics with a terrifying open world full of mysteries. The blend of crafting, exploration, and combat against horrifying enemies keeps you on the edge of your seat. Whether you're playing solo or with friends, every moment is filled with tension and discovery. If you love survival games with a thrilling twist, The Forest is an absolute must-play!
Spent many hours playing this game with childhood friends. Eventually it does stop being scary, but it is still a great experience. The game allows you many avenues to approach the monsters from outright ignoring them or going Berserk-mode. I also appreciate that you have the freedom to manipulate the game with console commands. One of my favorite memories is a session where we played with 'all monsters OFF' and 'PVP ON'; proceeding to form mini tribes and absolutely annihilating one another. "Why is the bush glowing?", my friend inquired at the ominous red glow gleaming out of a shrub that held a Molotov cocktail trap directly outside his base.
full of bugs, i dont know why its a coop game if it cant handle more than 1 person. if 2 people play only 1 will see the cutscenes and the other one might just randomly teleport under the map getting stuckthere
The only thing preventing me from giving this game a positive review is the combat. It is so inconsistent its actually driving me insane. You can be killing cannibals left and right and then suddenly get 3 hit combo'ed by a cannibal from the other side of the room OR (my "FAVOURITE") get insta killed by 3 babies you didn't see because the cave is stupidly dark. Sometimes you swing and the attack doesn't register! Having lost MANY hours and progress due to bullshit like this i CANNOT recommend this game. I know its old but COME ON this is game mechanics 101
apparently the full game must be the worst parts of any game. played solo, died what it says .9hrs. felt like hours and then expected to do it all over again. lol. the party play half the names of the groups sound gross and theres only a dozen with almost all 1/4 ...not even worth the 4bucks ..very glad i didn't buy both games at same time like i almost did.
There is nothing great about this game. It has mediocre survival that really doesn't provide a challenge, it's just tedious work. The story elements are randomly scattered with no clear direction until you some how stumble your way into the final area. I really had no idea how to progress throughout the game. The idea was there but the execution falls way too short to recommend.
