Night in the Woods

This game, Night in The Woods, appears to have every quality and aspect sorted. The animations look spectacular, the story is very intriguing, and the characters pull me in further and further. This game has a great art style and a very good soundtrack. I rate this 8/10 because I think the story is too short and there is not a lot of reason to play the game again. Nonetheless I still enjoyed it. It makes me sad to think that my journey with Mae, Bea, Gregg and Angus is now over. A lovely, inspiring short adventure, like What Remains Of Edith Finch. Thank you for reading.

I took a big chance buying this game. I didn't like the anthropomorphic art style, and it turned me away from the game multiple times. But then I gave it a chance. The narrative is amazing, the characters are great, the music is masterful. If you like story-based games like What Remains of Edith Finch or Oxenfree, absolutely try this one out.

The beginning was very slow, but the characters and their interactions were compelling enough to keep me interested enough in continuing. The bass playing was fun, but it was less important than I thought it would be. I really like how there's a lot of different storylines going on, and you get to choose to focus on the ones you care about. The gameplay was never very compelling, which is one issue I have with the game, but it makes up for it with how well the story builds up near the end.

I don't know how creator has done it, I am not even from America but I have lived in a small town, and this feeling of yeah the town still exist, but it's not thriving it's so on point.

The feeling of coming back to hometown and nothing have changed, it feels the same and people still remember the kid were and not that adult you that you are now.

Atmosphere good, like I don't even have to have a podcast or anything in the background. I am completely absorbed.

The story is so goddamn emotional punch. I can feel it in my gut, this early adulthood where you don't know what to do and don't know what to do with yourself. So just self hate comes.

Lots of small optional mini games and random encountered to make the Town feel alive, maybe it's slowly dying but the people in it are still alive.

The music is really good atmospheric works in all elements, in not something I would listen to outside the game but it works so well in the game. They played bass in a lot of it and it plays good with the main characters chosen instrument.

Lovely story memorable characters that will stay in my heart A good experience all around and a young adult classic.

Before this existed, this has known to have a couple of kickstarter games in order to keep indie gaming independent. And after playing this game, I can tell there's so much effort that was put to. Night In The Woods is one of gaming's most independent indie platform. This has went a long way from all that started with a couple of games for kickstarter to a few more years later into creating this. It would be all worth the effort with an engaging and intense story featuring a couple of different plot routes, lovable characters that serve a lot of purpose to this, gameplay that would allow a player to take time on visiting places and still focus on the main story, and creative indie graphics that presents the setting we would go to. But if there is one thing that really makes this game something incredible is its social commentary on social issues like the economy and religion. I won't spoil anything, but even on the final act where it would present climate change beliefs that could affect the world. If you are a fan of indie gaming and you think they deserve more attention, then please go play this game. However, I wouldn't judge how the game looks and I would recommend playing mostly for teens and young adults because of a dark tone. Not only is this one of the best indie games I've played, but possibly the most strongest that has been created. I can totally relate to Mae, because I will go and have hope until the end.
