About The Woods

The Woods is a solo and online co-op survival-crafting game set on a mysterious stylized forest island. Start with nothing, gather enough food and water to last the night, build a shelter, and turn a fragile camp into a defensible base.

Build and defend your camp

Construct shelters, campfires, storage, fences, traps, and defensive structures as wildlife and hostile creatures threaten your base.

Survive by preparation

Hunt, fish, cook, collect water, craft weapons, and plan each journey before hunger, thirst, weather, or enemies catch you out.

Explore a dangerous island

Search forests, beaches, rivers, caves, and landmarks for resources, secrets, and a possible way off the island.

Craft tools, weapons, and materials

Turn raw resources into the gear you need to explore farther, fight back, and keep your camp alive.

Play solo or online co-op

Survive alone or team up with friends to divide building, hunting, gathering, crafting, and defense.

Great game to enjoy with friends or even alone, it's been a joy watching this game start out from humble and simple beginnings to now growing into what it has become today. The amount of effort, thought, dedication and passion that has gone into this project is remarkable and inspiring. Thank you to all of the Devs who worked on this beautiful game, it was a pleasure trying out what The Woods had to offer at the time of me joining and it's been wholesome to watch this project slowly turn into the vision that the team saw from the start of development. Another thank you to the rest of the Bug Testing team, it was lovely working alongside some of you and I'm so proud and thankful to everyone involved!

Decent first time survival crafting game. Pretty straight forward for player direction and objectives.

Really solid survival game with a lot of potential. The forest island has a good atmosphere, and the crafting, building, hunting, and co-op survival elements make it fun to jump into. It’s still Early Access, so there are a few rough edges, but you can tell the developers are building something good here. Definitely worth checking out if you like survival games.

Found the game unique and lots of potential, definently needs a story line and a bit more info on each item as to what theyre for and could be used to do. Graphics look great and runs smoothly. Keen on more content and future updates

For the price, it's a decent game. Just needs a little polishing here and there, haven't encountered any game breaking bugs. Just minor QoL suggestions.

This game is quite relaxing and fun right now, I don't want to be mean with this review as its still in Early Access and it seems that the devs still have some work to do. I like how the game looks, it has its own unique artstyle that keeps it from being too similar to The Forest, I like the atmosphere, the trees swaying in the wing and the random noises that had me turing my head to see if anything was following me. Gathering resources is fun, I did have some issues trying to find Aloe Vera since it blends in with the environment, but I had no issues with gathering the other resources like Ivy and Sticks. The Building in the game still needs improvement, as it is a little difficult to connect parts of a house to each other and only being able to carry one Log at a time is tedious. There is a way to join the Logs together but everytime I go to pick them up, I end up only grabbing one log. I recommmend this game to those who liked The Forest, also other resource gathering and survival games.
