Darkwood, a game which is on alpha testing for about 3 years is going to be released real soon. The game is a horror-survival game with many different features and mechanics.
What you do in this game basically is trying to survive through the night. To do so, you have a couple of choices like laying traps around and hiding. This game fellas, believe me, is a jewel. Here are some videos to give you a basic idea about the game:
A new kind of horror
To inform us crazy gamers, the devs have recently released a live-action release date announcement trailer. And to be honest, they made me wonder why would they want to release a live-action trailer for a game like this? But who knows right? Let’s just enjoy it together:
The game is on early access since 2015. After they received enough support on Kickstarter, Acid Wizard Studio started working on the project. It was not until recently that we heard the official release date of the game. Also, if you wonder about the main features of the game, here they are:
- Experience the only top-down survival horror game that will make you scream out in terror.
- Enjoy an engaging blend of RPG, roguelike and adventure elements crafted by hardcore gamers.
- Step into a world where the cycle of night and day truly impacts your (already faint) chances of survival.
- By day explore the randomly generated, ever-sinister woods, scavenge for materials, craft weapons and discover new secrets.
- By night find shelter, barricade, set up traps and hide or defend yourself from the horrors that lurk in the dark.
- Gain skills and perks by extracting a strange essence from mutated fauna and flora and injecting it into your bloodstream. Watch out for unexpected consequences…
- Make decisions that impact the world of Darkwood, its inhabitants and the story you experience.
- Meet eerie characters, learn their stories and decide their fate. And remember – don’t trust anyone.
- Laugh maniacally as madness consumes your mind.
Darkwood will be released on August 17th, 2017. For those who would like to join the early access, I’d suggest getting the game on Steam for $15. If you want more information, go ahead and check out their official website. And for others, I can only wish patience.
Stay tuned for more!
