Synopsis

The Woods is a first-person horror game where you play as someone desperate for a job. One day, you meet an old man who offers you a high-paying job as a woodcutter deep in the forest.
Desperate and hopeful, you accept—unaware that he has sinister intentions.
Once you arrive, things quickly take a turn. Strange anomalies begin to appear, and it becomes clear that something is terribly wrong.

Overview

Chop wood to meet your quota—but it is more than just swinging an axe.
Progress through three unique area haunted by a terrifying presence.
These entities react to your breath, your gaze, and the paths you take. You'll need to stay quiet, stay hidden, and stay sharp.

Escape from three nightmare rooms to uncover the truth of the old man's dark past.

The Graveyard

You’re never alone among the dead.
Watch the entity. Don’t blink.
A Pocong hunts silently, freezing when seen—but always getting closer.
Escape it's twisted grasp.

The Village

Winding alleys. Empty homes. And the sound of footsteps that aren’t yours.
A relentless woman patrols the village, hunting you through narrow paths.
She cries for her missing husband body parts. Run!

The House

Darkness hides more than shadows.
Inside this haunted house, a crying lady wants to play hide and seek.
She knows the house better than you ever will. Stay quiet... and don’t let her find you.
