The Red Forest is a story-driven, dark, emotional tale about power, loss, and the fear of the unknown.
Enter a futuristic world, immersing yourself in the complex narrative of two brothers. Their parents, pioneering scientists, have uncovered a groundbreaking power source.
You assume the persona of Yaro. Following a catastrophic nuclear reactor blast, you witness your sibling, Ace, being pulled into the woods adjacent to the power plant. Your task is to find your lost brother amidst the turbulent vastness of The Red Forest.

Features
Unique Dialogue Options
Explore different routes of conversation by choosing how you react.
We let the player decide if they want to be kind, harmful, funny, and twist the gameplay to their liking with dialogue choices.
Each choice has a different result, it can be as simple as choosing which coffee you like, saving someone, or ending them?
Turn-Based Battle System
Familiar yet new take on turn-based battles.
Your equipped weapon determines the minigame that will be played for each turn.
Each enemy has unique attacks, and different builds and equipped items will be utilized to defeat foes.
Choices Matter
The characters you meet remembers the choices you have made. Not keeping promises will alter events and cause altercations down the line.
For some enemies its not too late, cure them of corruption when you can. These newfound allies can provide Yaro with many uses on his journey that he will otherwise miss out on should he fail to save them.
