Great atmosphere and visual/sound design definitely has Blair Witch vibes big time
8/10 recommend
3/3 of the games I played:
Even though I technically did play this game 2 years ago with a horrible setup. I though of replaying it again with a brand new laptop so I can now fully experience the best atmospheric type horror game that does get me on edge sometimes. Overall, it was an amazing game and a job well done!I absolutely loves this game! One of the BEST Blair Witch like games out there! | 3rd Game
This game was like my last relationship—short-lived and intense. I really enjoyed playing this one.
the jump scares in this game a amazing, great game
I heard there was a Remake of this? Is that true? This game is so spooky! The jump scares and the story twist! Great game!
Você acorda na floresta e uma mulher grita por socorro, sua única intuição, é segui-la, até encontrar a casa na floresta.
O jogo é excelente, mas se você não acordou no mato e quer experimentar:
Video above is my playthrough and impressions if anyone is interested.
wasn't really scary to me just kinda walked around and saw papers with drawings on them and then found a house with more papers and drawings on them. looked alright
Very nice, short horror game.
Waiting for your next bigger project.
Finish this game.
Can you guys please finish this game!? <3
this was a phenomenal game!
GOOD WORK
This game does such an amazing job at setting up an eerie atmosphere! The sound effects are top notch and the timing of every single twig snap, guttural groan, and ragged breath really makes you feel like you’re being stalked by an unknown entity! It gets even better when you get to the house in the woods!
Thanks for putting out such a fun game! Keep up the great work! 👻

THIS GAME WAS AWESOME!
Can't wait to see what updates and developments are in store.
I've been recommending this game to all my friends-it's that good!
Atmosphere was great, keep up the good work!
THIS GAME WAS SO DAMN GOOD!
This game had my anxiety clocked from the moment of loading into the game. Loved blair witch, loved this short horror game inspired by it just the same!
Loved everything about the game. The suspense is real!
Gameplay BR

You made these woods incredibly creepy.
