About
WELCOME TO ASHWOOD CREEK, SEPTEMBER 1985
Step into the shoes of Ethan, a police officer in the quaint town of Ashwood Creek—a place where the trees whisper, the mountains loom, and secrets hide just out of sight. What begins as a routine investigation, quickly spirals into a haunting journey through the unknown.
Ashwood Creek feels frozen in time, untouched by the chaos of the outside world. But under the surface, something dark is stirring. A teenager has gone missing. A strange signal is cutting through the static of local radio stations. Lured deeper into Ashwood Creek National Park, you’ll need to tune in to every frequency and every echo of the past in the hopes of uncovering the truth.

A MYSTERY YOU CAN’T IGNORE
As you explore the vast, eerie expanse of Ashwood Creek National Park, you’ll find that your radio is more than just a piece of electronics — it’s your key to survival. Pick up supernatural signals and tune into otherworldly transmissions. But not all signals will guide you to safety… some are meant to lead you astray, deeper into the shadows, where the past waits to confront you.

WHO DO YOU TRUST WHEN DARKNESS FALLS?
Guided by the voice of Robert, your childhood friend and the town’s chief of police, you’ll venture through dense forests, foggy valleys, and forgotten trails. Together, you’ll piece together clues, follow mysterious broadcasts, and uncover the secrets that Ashwood Creek would rather keep hidden. But the closer you get to the truth, the more you’ll realise that some things are better left buried.

Very short (2-3 hours max) but a very nice game. Pure story with very little gameplay, think firewatch and the likes. The story itself is quite good, like a solid 7.5-8/10, could use some "is it actually paranormal or can it be explained naturally" type of writing, but other than that its pretty good. Definitely worth the price.
Mysteriózní adventura jak má být. Zajímavý příběh a správná atmosféra, která vyvolává to správné napětí. Hra není interaktivní film a některé scény jsou trochu výzva, ale nic hrozného. Kdo má rád Alan Wake nebo Someday You'll Return bude spokojen.
Great game
güzel
Too drawn out. The story is incoherent. The voice acting made my balls cringe. And the cultists' faces are straight outta Oblivion (the 2006 one, not the remaster, mind you).
Short yet atmospheric game that could have been even finer without scary elements. Not because they are really scary but because they don't add anything to the story. However, I was pleased, so I'll be waiting for new games from this developer. Thank you!
Wonderful game, only issue is that you cannot comment on items you put in your inventory before calling in :'(
amazing
fun and terrifying
Kinda janky--I ran into a soft lock bug where I fixed the generator, yet the other cabin still said I had no power and there was no way to progress forward. Also, when the generator power goes out, why the heck does the electric fan and the lamp still stay on? Also the floor is see-through in the lamp room? Boats just are all filled with water? Story is meh
