The Forest is a survival horror video game developed and published by Endnight Games. The game takes place on a remote heavily forested peninsula, where the player character Eric LeBlanc must fight off cannibalistic monsters, while searching for his son Timmy after a plane crash. The game features nonlinear gameplay in an open world environment played from a first-person perspective, with no set missions or quests, empowering the player to make their own decisions for survival. Following a four-year long early access beta phase releasing in 2014, the finished game was released for Windows in April 2018, and for the PlayStation 4 in November 2018. The game was a commercial success, selling over five million copies by the end of 2018.

this game is so cool i see all the cannibals' bare naked asses they should add jiggle physics
Fun game! Interesting story and plenty to do to get you there. Def run this blind on your first go, because I know plenty of people looking up guides to get certain things first. 8/10
Turns out the game is a million times more fun when you cannibalize them back food has not been an issue for a consistent 44 hours 10/10 do recommend dumping hours into it
