Wordless Forest

my only critique. i wish it was a lil bit longer. but overall i enjoyed the game and getting 4/4 endings. well done to the solo creator. game deserves a postive review the negative ones arent deserved. petty people.

A solid FMV thriller. Making choices with zero dialogue in a pure chilling forest atmosphere is what sets this game apart in the genre. And the fact that a solo developer shot the scenes on his own in a forest makes the realism really come through. Plus the short playtime of each playthrough allows you to explore other endings without getting bored. Definitely worth checking out if you like FMV games.

Its a video with 5-7 choices. More of an art project than a game as the 'interaction' in the whole game is less interaction than i normally spend in the setting menu.

Impressive dedication by the (solo) dev

[h1]Enough for a young student's first project...[/h1] However, it falls short of qualifying as a proper interactive game or film. The direction feels haphazard and rushed. There is absolutely no sense of urgency or distress. The inciting incident—a head injury—is hard to grasp because the editing and direction fail to highlight it effectively. It isn't clear that an accident has occurred (unless one spots the faint bloodstain on the head), making it difficult to understand the resulting consequences. Neither the need for survival nor the hostility of the environment comes across, as the direction shows very little. The protagonist seems to be merely taking a stroll through the woods, covering only a few hundred meters during the entire journey. The project sorely lacks the direction and acting required to convey the struggle for survival—which is supposed to be the story's main focus. As for gameplay, it is virtually non-existent, boiling down to just a few choices; classifying it as an "interactive film" feels like a stretch. The survival gear carried doesn't match the duration of the journey, and the technical survival actions should have been more realistic and filmed in g…

Had high hopes, but was disappointed. Not many decisions to be made and just got bored very quick.
