Dark Forest
Dark Forest is a retro turn-based dungeon crawler centered around family, kinship and tragedy. The game is set in an animal-centric world where creatures live together in small enclaves called 'clearings' in order to stay safe from the dangerous beasts of the ‘dark forests’ that surround the area.

Meet the creature-siblings Kotaro, Akane and Shigure. Follow their story as they protect their home from the surrounding dark forest. Not all bonds are about romance. In this game, explore a narrative centered around meaningful connection through kinship, trauma and loss.
