About ItLivesInTheWoods

NOTE: The game focuses on exploration and builds tension slowly to create a deeper and more meaningful experience. Its story is unveiled through surreal cinematic imaging. Estimated completion time: 1.5hours.-How far will you go to reunite with your lost daughter?
ItLivesInTheWoods is a first-person psychological horror game set in Canada in modern times.

Plot
You will experience a linear story that has multiple endings, with mystery and twists.
Everything was well before your daughter, Sarah, mysteriously disappeared in the forest during a hiking trip a month ago. You don't know what happened to your daughter or if she is still alive. You only know you want her back safely in your arms again.

The deeper you go into the forest, the more you will question what is real and what is not.


Environment
The game is developed with a sense of hyper-realism to create a visually stunning and memorable experience powered by Unreal Engine 5.

You will explore a rich procedurally generated forest where the more you explore, the more you will unearth the reality of your daughter. However, in doing so will also introduce you to certain evil, of which you must overcome to reunite with your daughter. Some things you encounter will seem surreal, and may actually be so.
Can you trust your eyes?
Gameplay

You will uncover minor puzzles and cues of which you must complete to understand your surroundings and progress in the game. Objects in the game are inspectable and/or interactable, where some will enrich the story with new information or backstory, and some will simulate the environment for realism.

Perhaps you will be face-to-face with an evil which will test your survival skills until either you are defeated or it.

Wow actually a very good game. I really can't agree with most of the negative reviews left on here but some are indeed very harsh or outright just stupid... Game runs fairly smooth for me. A very realistic forest probably the most realistic i've seen from an indie game... A very nice cinematic game with a lot of potential in my opinion coming from the creator who i think made this game solo. The only thing i'd change is the voice acting but i guess it's expensive to hire pro voice actors. Looking forward to more games from this creator!

ItLivesInTheWoods is the quintessential horror experience. The game respects my intelligence and it's a small yet meaningful story. There is so much heart put into the gameplay and at just under 2 hours, it's an easy in and easy out adventure. I found myself intrigued and mortified at every turn and couldn't wait to see where the game took me. The game is definitely SHOW not TELL. crafted masterfully. IF YOU LOVE HORROR AND MYSTERY- WOULD RECOMMEND.

This game keeps you glued to the screen. This is what matters most and as a first outing from a solo developer is really promising !

This game had potential, but the mechanics were a little wonky. Once I got to the house and woke up, I could not find the next task to do. I searched everything for about 20 minutes until I just gave up. I suggest adding instructions or notes to help. I also think the voice for the person looking for his daughter did not match at all. He was very mute and not upset. The volume for the game was quiet as well.

What on earth is this? Thanks to UE5, here’s yet another title I’d classify as “junk.” It’s not even worth this low price. The beginning is promising, with the forest looking great and creating a fantastic atmosphere. But what immediately stands out as a negative right from the start is the voice acting. What happened to the voice actors? The father sounds like he’s taken too many sleeping pills. Completely sleepy, boring, and emotionless. It completely ruins the atmosphere and makes the game seem cheap right away and not exciting in the slightest. The voice acting for the creature you encounter at the end is also completely botched. Just a faint breath and a whisper. Is that supposed to be scary? The flashlight and lighter (I have no idea why you have both) do have a durability meter in the inventory, but it's impossible to deplete it in any way. It was probably included to give the impression that these items have limited usability, but in reality, the meters could have just been left out. In the second half, the forest doesn’t play a major role anymore, and the atmosphere is gone. The jump scares are cheap and don’t scare you, and you don’t really get scared in general eith…
