It's a fairly fun horror/adventure/building game, doubly so if you're playing with friends. I can't say I recommend it if you'll be playing alone. The scariness can become pretty repetitive to the point of becoming dull and to-be-expected. The adventures you'll have are pretty great, though, and the graphics and environment are very easy on the eyes.
I've been watching gameplays for this game for 3 years and I had no idea Its not just a VR game till I saw a different game play that was not in VR than two days ago I found a great deal on steam and I just finished playing it as I was about to review this game awesome i would recommend this.
For my fellow mate nimcen, the forest is an outstanding, thrilling coop adventure.
But Epos sausage was wayyyyy too short 2mm to be exact.
Still fun, love it, recommend it, looking forward for sons of the forest.

THE FOREST (2018) was an extremely brutal adventure horror survival game. Being a survival game, the stakes are very high. Survival of the fittest, kill or be killed. There is also a huge hidden story to unravel, discovering the mystery and dark secrets of the island and its terrifying inhabitants, as well as trying to find your son.

This game is very DARK and while the graphics are great (not perfect) it's also chillingly realistic at times. I loved the entire concept. Out in the forest in middle of nowhere after a plane crash on a mysterious island, filled with cannibal natives and grotesque mutants. Psychological horror at it's finest. The lack of thematic music will have your ears pricked, listening to every noise the background. You have to be prepared always, from everything like basic survival needs (food, water, shelter, mental health etc.), from the elements and terrain, illnesses and poisoning, from the creatures lurking in the woods.
Overall, this game was very fun and creepy. The premise is very dark and there is plenty of gore. I loved the survival aspects, (hunting, gathering, foraging, crafting, building, traveling, exploring etc.) There is a lot to do in this game and it can be very addictive.
Not recommended for minors as the gore levels are pretty severe (blood, violence, murder, cannibalism, genetically mutated monsters, hunting, skinning, dismemberment, decapitation, burning bodies, cooking human meat, crafting armor from animal/human/monster bones/skin/remains, child death, etc.)

From the graphics to the gameplay, this game is amazing. The multiplayer feature is so much fun, and the crafting system is like no other. The scares can get repetitive, but when you first start the game, you will be scared the crap out of.
