Landlord of the Woods is a brief but hauntingly memorable indie adventure that blends surrealist storytelling, understated humor, and quiet existential dread into a point-and-click puzzle game that defies traditional expectations. Developed by Madison Karrh, this title doesn’t rely on intricate mechanics or fast-paced action, but instead invites the player into a subtly eerie, pastel-tinted forest filled with strange creatures and even stranger requests. What begins as an odd job opportunity for a disillusioned 25-year-old quickly unravels into something much more bizarre and symbolic. The premise is simple on the surface: you’re offered a job as the “landlord of the woods” after feeling aimless in your life. You wake up in a forest, tasked with collecting rent from a handful of eccentric forest dwellers. These tenants, however, aren’t your typical woodland creatures—they’re whimsical and often unsettling beings with deeply specific, sometimes grotesque needs. Each inter...
A short and, I might even say, HEARTWARMING story about how to find a way to the landlord's heart
As a huge fan of the developers later title "Birth" I knew I was going to like this, the art is immaculate and has an almost Alice In Wonderland draw to it, you want to go deeper and deeper until the devilish end. Loved this.
A short and heartwarming game. Definitely play this Gem <3
Absolutely beautiful cozy game, took me about an hour. Only one puzzle frustrated me, and only 1 piece of rent i couldn't find. Very fun game, i suggest you wrap up in something cozy while playing it. Very charming artstyle and not nervous feeling, but ever so slightly unsettled. 9.5/10 because that one piece of rent is annoying me.
This was super charming! Both cute and disturbing. The puzzles were clear while not being overly simple. I loved the ending.
What a twist!
Very fun short game, sequencing is had to figure out and a little laggy. But id assume its because its older. I enjoyed playing it very much. Worth more than I paid. :>
Really fun and interesting game with a weird but fascinating art style.
