About
Beacon Pines is a cute and creepy adventure set within a mysterious book. You play as both the reader of the book and its main character, Luka.
Something strange is happening at the old warehouse, and Luka and his friends seem to be the only ones taking notice. Sneak out late, make new friends, uncover hidden truths, and collect words that will change the course of fate!

While helping Luka investigate the strange goings-on in Beacon Pines, you’ll collect special golden charms, each with a word engraved on it. These charms can be used at certain turning points in the story to fill in a blank word and drastically change everything that follows.

As the book's reader, you’ll navigate the story’s turning points using The Chronicle: an interactive story tree that branches and grows along with your choices. Exploring one set of events can unlock new charms to use on another branch, leading you to jump back and forth between entirely different versions of the story in order to unravel the mysteries at the heart of Beacon Pines.

8/10: I unexpectedly ended up really liking this game. It’s not exactly a ‘game’‑game. It’s more like an interactive story where you pick actions and watch the consequences unfold. It starts off looking like a cute children’s tale… and then suddenly shifts into dark, creepy territory in the best possible way. Very intriguing!
Like a choose your own adventure book! I recomend this to people who like to choose their own adventure
Slower and less scary than I hoped. But a fun game none-the-less. Good music, good graphics, interesting story overall. A good game to waste a weekend on.
Lovely game. I played the demo a while back and just knew I had to get it eventually. Beacon Pines tells the tale of a city full of mysteries and various endings, alongside humorous and likeable characters. Its gameplay was reminiscent of "choose your own adventure" and allows for easy navigation to go back and make new choices. In fact, every choice needs to be explored if we wish to unfold the full, true story that lies behind Beacon Pines city and its residents. This concept was well executed whereas choosing a different path created unique new stories tailored with the knowledge we previously gained. Do not let its cartoony appearance fool you. This game is definitely teen+ and has language and jokes that reflect such. Overall, amazing game and it left me surprised with laughter more often than anticipated. I truly recommend
This was a super cute game. Very interesting story. 9/10
Darker than expected. The game tells you most paths end in tragedy but wow, talk about a sad reality. I don't want to feel defeated as often as this game makes me feel. Also gives the illusion of choice; the fact is that you must end in tragedy many times and in each different story you gain words that allow you to be more successful each time until you get good ending. So it feels like a rogue-like in that way but also feels linear because you often don't have a "good" word to use until after another tragic ending. I don't feel that others would experience the game in a very different way. And because of all this I cannot recommend the game to others.
That was an amazing game. I loved it. I hope there will be more in the future. All endings were super interesting. Like a little puzzle. I highly recommend this game for likes story game.
قصة اللعبة حلوة وشدتني في البداية, ولكن فيها أجندات فوقفت ألعبها. لا أنصح بها.
The big gags in this game had me shocked and also I called it given I played way too many genres like this. But it was still very much an emotional rollercoaster and DEFINETLY A short game to keep yourself occupied!! I love it !!!!!
This game's story and art are beautiful and so fun!
