About

Through the Woods is a third-person Norse horror adventure set in a forest on the western shores of Norway that tells the story of a mother and her missing son. Through reactive narration, the player experiences the mother’s re-telling of the events surrounding her son’s disappearance. Players follow the path of a terrified woman who has forced herself to enter this terrible place for the sole purpose of finding her son, in a setting heavily influenced by Norse mythology and Norwegian folk tales.
With Through the Woods, Antagonist have captured the feeling of the forest as they saw it as children, with all the fear and mystery that comes from roaming through it alone. This is coupled with a powerful story and high quality sound design, which in the darkness of the forest becomes a core mechanic. Through the Woods is a profound experience that directly delivers the feelings of loneliness and loss in a terrifying place...

奥利给
A few glitches here and there - loads of effort put into doing some of the folklore justice, has some pretty adult story elements but overall a fun little game - worth picking up on sale. 6/10
Un grand bravo a toute l'équipe de dev. Ce petit jeu montre a quel point il faut soutenir les indépendants. Si j'ai bien compris il s'agit en plus d'un projet scolaire. Si vous aimer la mythologie Scandinave, vous ne serez pas déçu. 4 Heures que je ne regrette pas.

A story that is loyal to Norse mythology, I enjoyed every level and got a few scares out of the experience.
Bonne petite surprise. L’ambiance est vraiment réussie, assez stressante sans en faire trop. L’histoire est sympa à suivre et le jeu mise plus sur l’exploration que sur l’action, ce qui change. Les décors sont jolis et immersifs. C’est pas parfait, mais ça reste une expérience cool à faire.
Really realistic in terms of the folklore. As a Norwegian myself, they hit all the right information of the lore. Sat at the edge of my seat and the attention to detail was great! Graphics as well was insane. Had some glitches at one specific point multiple times (same place every time) when running from the wargs, but other than that everything worked great.
[h1][b]Through the Woods[/b][/h1] [b]Genre:[/b] Horror / Walking Simulator, Mythology, Folklore [b]Perspective:[/b] 3rd Person [b]Rating:[/b] ⭐⭐⭐🔹🔹 💙Summary (TLDR): [i]This game might be a very short walking simulator with gloomy atmosphere requiring you to hide from enemies instead of fighting but its gameplay and story are actually quite enjoyable so I'd recommend giving it a try, especially if you find mythology or nordic folklore interesting![/i] [h3][b]The Positives[/b][/h3] [list][*]The atmosphere was nice! The turn from peaceful to creepy and dark was done well imo. [*]The controls were actually nice and not clunky. Our character did sometimes "vibrate" weirdly or jumped up for a sec at obstacles and edges but it was nothing that would break the game. [*]I really liked the story even if it was short - the pacing was good and the notes were quite interesting! I don't want to be too spoiler-y but the ending was (for me at least) predictable but it fit well overall and I had a good time! [/list] [h3][b]The "Not So Goods"[/b][/h3] [list][*]I’m sorry to say but the voiceacting left a lot to be desired, Espen especially! It made the cutscenes downright cringey sometimes. [*]One of the achievements, the one opening all doors, is bugged… but there are guides out there to help you so don’t give up on it! [/list]

That's a beautiful atmospheric horror game i enjoyed it :D
Good game, with a low budget, it takes a while to get going, it only starts to get good after chapter 0, but once you start playing with the mom, and walking through woods in the dark, finding texts about terrifying stories from Nordic folklore and encountering mystical creatures, it captures the spirit and fulfills its purpose.
