About Door in the Woods
This game is a venture into an alternative timeline in which graphics and sensible game design were never invented.
Door in the Woods is an open world roguelike inspired by lovecraftian mythos. Explore a world in which every possible extinction scenario became reality - from zombie plague through alien invasion and to awakening of the great old ones.
Player takes role of one of the last survivors who is trying to make sense of the new reality in which even the most basic rules of physics do not always apply. Survival hinges not only on finding enough sustenance or fending off zombies, but more crucially on keeping your mind intact and safe from the horrors. It turns out that suicide is sometimes the better option.
Features:
- lack of graphics
- open world
- extremely limited color palette
- day/night cycle
- almost no audio
- crafting
- questionable design choices
What can you do in this game?
- drink from a puddle and get sick
- hide in bushes from zombies
- fight cannibals and ironically eat them afterwards
- commit suicide
- find door in the woods

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
A really creative take on the survival horror genre. The graphic is absolutely minimalistic, yet climatic and well fits together. During playthrough, there are numerous and non-linear options for gear production and survival. The game is, however, really challenging, especially at the beginning. 7/10.1 found this helpful
really cool game
Phenomenal. I haven’t been this excited to play a game since Dwarf Fortress. The art-style is beautiful, the gameplay is challenging and rewarding, I love it!
Hidden gem, not a huge amount of playtime but I really like the story telling and learning the game organically

Sadly doesn't go anywhere, despite obvious talent and inspiration from the developer.
