It Lurks in the Woods

It's generally not a good sign when you see the words "Made with Unity" come on-screen before anything else, but at least this is one effort which was clearly made with a bit of love. Which isn't to say that it's "good", exactly - it's not - but at least someone cared enough to spend longer than four-and-a-half hours putting their "experimental" masterpiece (read: tech demo) together, and had enough respect to make the resultant "game" free for all bar those who choose to make a donation. A donation, one presumes, mostly intended to show support towards whatever project the dev decides to undertake next. My own assessment of the developer's potential? Yeah, there's definitely potential here. The graphics are spiffy - even if you feel a bit like a dwarf running through a forest at times, despite no clear indication that your character is anything of the sort - and the sound is generally well-realised (though some differentiation between paved footpaths and the surrounding grass woul...

YouTube review and Game-play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptgXLAYJah0&feature=youtu.be It Lurks In The Woods is an interesting adventure horror game with a creepy atmosphere. You start off unconscious near your flipped wagon and dead horse. The medicine for your sick relative is missing and you need to search the surrounding area to find it. PROS: I thought that the graphics looked great and I found it was easy to become immersed in the creepy environment. There were a few jump scares that really did get me, and at times I could feel my heart racing. I want to progress in the story and find out what else happens. THE GAME IS FREE CONS: I found a few small graphical bugs in the game where textures were missing. For instance, the stairs to an alter in the cave. I couldn't figure out how to save my game. Hopefully they will implement that in the future. There was a part in the game where I couldn't figure out what to do to progress. The area outside the cave I found my...

I will recommend this crap,but only because its free!

!!SPOILER ALERT!! (duh..) ================== Very good and solid short horror game if they replace in the last chase scene the ball of light with some actual horror entity it would be perfect+ Enjoy my gameplay here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4m3n0qtuS4I

The quality of the game is really good. the graphics are really nice and the atmosphere is spooky. the game itself is pretty short,but it is free. i have paid for horror games that are ten times worse than this. 7/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfKA_EuH3Zs&feature=youtu.be

Seems like a nice rendition of Slender. The only problem is the sound cuts off if you Alt+Tab out, so you need to reset the game to get sound back, BUT, there are no save points. Please do something about this, I'd like to enjoy this game instead of losing sound after a half hour and having to restart the game completely.

It Lurks in the Woods is a decent Horror/ atmospheric game. Its not mind blowing in any way but I enjoyed it enough to recommend other Horror, Atmospheric, or even Adventure game fans try it out.

This was a mistake. Just watch the video and find out why this ten minute horror game is awful. https://youtu.be/xZUV65zTT3E

Seriously sent shivers up my whole body more than once. It's a slow burn which I appreciate, and the atmosphere is spot on. There are some performance issues and small bugs that could be fixed, but for free it's hard to complain. Try it if you like creepy exploration games with atmosphere.

It's a (quite) short story driven adventure. I liked the atmosphere. Don't expect much, it's an indie game and it's free. It has potential for improvements and/or additions. it's a thumbs up from me only to encourage the guy build up on a longer story
