Really, really loved this game. The story and mystery sucks you in, the characters are interesting and complex and fun to explore, and overall this game made me feel a lot of different things I didn't expect going into it. Playing through the story was a really enjoyable experience and I'm looking forward to playing through it again to find more things.
This game, besides its amazing soundtrack and artstyle, is very helpful to any young adult out there who struggles with where to go in life. It acknowledges the need to go back to everything that's comfortable, like a playground you used to play in as a kid or speaking to friends you've known for years, and it acknowledges the problems that can come out of acting on those needs. I'll come back to this game every once in a few years probably, see how my perspective changes as i grow up. Shame the studio closed down, i feel lucky to have been able to experience this game though.
An excellent story-driven game that will take you from the heights of post-college dropout small town life to the lows of...whatever's in those woods. Lots of dialogue that can take a Lot to see all of, but the benefit is you get to know some interesting characters sharing their lives with you in this town--and hey! You can always save some of them for the next time round, as this game takes multiple playthroughs to see everything. And yet, I've played the game twice and I've found myself doing some of the same things over again just because they're that compelling on their own.
quite literally one of the best games out there. i'd say this is the best written game i've ever played, and the impact it leaves on you is just insane. you come out a different person after playing it. it brings me a lot of comfort along with the likable characters and the fact that they're so relatable adds on to it. it truly is an insanely beautiful game, and i adore it.
This is far and away my favorite game ever, and I genuinely think I wouldn't be in the same place in life I am now if I never played it
It does feel like this game targets itself to a certain age demographic and type of person (Namely lost mentally ill 20 year olds living in a dead end town. Oh, and also gay people, probably), but if you're at all interested in it, you can probably get something out of it regardless
Banger soundtrack, 10/10, Would recommend
"Nothing is gonna save us forever, but a lot of things can save us today" -Play the game to figure out who says this lol
This is an amazing game, 100% worth the money, all the dialogue feels very real and fun to read, the emotional moments in the story were awesome as well.
Very much recommend checking out if you are interested!
Amazing unique game with a great story
Heard great things but ultimately wasn't for me. Feel like it's the sort of game that you need to really connect to the characters to enjoy, but personally could not get into it after the first couple hours. Might've been more my thing a few years ago.
This game fundamentally changed me as a person. The dialogue is unbelievably real and there are many lines that live in my head at all times. The characters all feel so real, even the ones that are just in the background. This has been my favourite game for going on 7 years now. This is among my favourite pieces of media ever.
I adore the nostalgia, the art style, the music, the story, and the dialogue.
absolutely beautiful game. sadly i'm definitely not going to be able to beat the furry allegations after this one.
I had a great time playing DemonTower! Deceptively easy mechanics with increasingly challenging levels! Palecat has a complex character arc, and the ending made me very emotional.
Oh, yeah, I guess that side game called Night in the Woods was fun too
hits like a gutpunch on home base and then out of left field makes you question god. 10/10 i suck at bass too mae
Floating. Good to play on a grey day. Warm story with a cold, depressing cloud looming at all times. Play it to the end. And when you think you're getting to the end make sure your room is dark. Plus, awesome rhythm mini-game.
i originally pirated the game because im a cheap asshat but i loved it so much i just had to buy it also i would do horrible things for gregg hes awesome
Very comfy, warm game with an interesting story. I loved every minute of it, I just think it's wonderful.
This game has genuinely made me feel so at home. It's a touching story and is extremely relatable, and I would 100% recommend it to anyone.
Very very good! I've played it about a dozen times haha. I would highly recommend talking to as many folks as possible before doing the main storylines!
this game is amazing. 10/10. a profound experience that has absolutely influenced my outlook on the world, a very fun and emotional experience. thank you night in the woods.
I was at a decently low point in my life when I started playing this game. But, after beating it, I felt something in me almost change. At first, I couldn't tell if it brought me to an even lower point or gave me something to reflect on, but I know now. It was an experience that I needed. A reality check if you will. I feel different, changed. I have a lot of reflecting to do, but I'm just so glad that I was able to experience this game.
10/10
Thank you.
sometimes you dream of a paranormal adventure, and to have a night in the woods, whatever that means. but when you realize that horror can hurt you and what a night in the woods entails, then you become more content with the everyday malaise of living. running around, trying and failing to steal a pretzel from the pretzel stand.
Great game. Unfortunately the creator committed suicide after Infinite Fall terrible handling of an internal situation with someone that had ongoing mental health issues. At least the company folded after that incident with his suicide.
this game changed me. well not really but i relate to it a a lot. all the characters are so well written and its just amazing. play. this. game.
I love this game so much honestly one of the best narratives I've played. LOOK AT MY HOURS. Everything about this game is great from the different characters to soundtrack. 10/10 Must play for sure.
What a beautiful game. From the art, to the music, to the writing and storytelling it's all just so compelling. Not every day a game is able to make me feel like a kid again. I laughed, I cried, and mostly I just had a lot of fun.
Amazing story with amazing characters. This game is probably one of, if not the best game I've ever played.
The art style, the music, the writing, and all of the above, are purely 10/10.
i don't know if i will ever replay it. it.. hurt to play. it really hit deep with me, and i think that if you have ever felt like a problem, play this game. i feel seen and related to. i can't really say that for a lot of games, but i will say it here.
I watched people play through this game when I was younger, and it stuck with me. Now university age myself, I came back to it, and man do I love this game. Its painfully relatable, and has gorgeous art with an incredible world to match.
I simply cannot recommend this game enough. Proximity counts, and Gregg Rulz ok!
Made me cry and had me super invested. I'm glad i stayed blind all these years to the plot because it's story holds up! It's a lovely story game and the art style is very cute as well.
at the end of everything, hold on to anything
first of all, i just want to state that night in the woods is, hands down, one of my top five favorite games of all time. the writing, the characters, the visuals, and the effing music, it's all incredibly well done. while this is definitely not a game for everyone, as the gameplay is definitely the weakest part of this game as it's mostly just walking around and talking to people, i feel like that was kind of the point? it's definitely a character-first game, with its narrative and writing being put first and its gameplay second.
if that isn't your kind of thing and you prefer a game that is more gameplay-focused, i'd still recommend this game solely for its amazing writing, but i definitely don't think you'd get as much out of it and might find it a bit boring. i, personally, also have some minor gripes behind some of the gameplay sections, namely the dream segments, which can be a bit boring and time-consuming. really the only thing they've got going for them are the beautiful visuals and incredible music, but other than that, i'm not a huge fan of them.
other than that, please play this game if very engaging and interesting characters and intriguing and really well-executed themes of mental health and letting go appeal to you, it's definitely worth the price. for the best experience, i definitely recommend exploring as much of the town as you can and talk to all the characters, you might find yourself falling into fun conversations with a horror movie fan, learning about the constellations with your old science teacher, or listening to genuinely excellent poems from your neighbor.
overall, this is a fantastic narrative and character-driven game with a lot of time and effort put into its visuals and soundtrack. i definitely recommend this to anyone who is more into excellent character writing rather than engaging or deep gameplay.
remember to talk to everyone every day!! especially selmers!!
I don't write a lot of reviews but this game hit at a really opportune time for me. Impeccably written, lots of good and bad feels which ultimately come together to make something that can absolutely gut you. 10/10.
Excellent game. Deep on story with a beautiful soundtrack. Interesting side-games and a gripping narrative once it gets going. Definitely worth getting into.
10/10.
Night in the woods is a story based game that will never get a sequel, never get a sister-game, a follow-up, or any other kind of media as a surplus of these characters, and oddly enough the way the community has still grown despite this hardship is a reflection of how strong the messaging in the game's story is.
"The world may rot around the people inside it, but they are good people. Regardless of the situation they are in, there are good people. We need to stick together, keep each-other healthy, happy, loved, because despite that rot, we can perservere"
Despite everything this game, and the people making it have gone through, I'm glad to have experienced it, even if there's nothing like the town of Possum Springs made again, I will cherish what little I have experienced.
I can't even start. I relate to so much of this game on such a personal level it hurts. I've cried a few times.
I definitely see why so many people adore this game. I think I might've passed the peak time to play this game in terms of life stages but I would definitely still recommend this game.
I love the combination of dilly dallying, character/relationship development, and, most surprisingly, the aspects of thriller. It would've been nice to keep these themes a bit more consistent throughout the game, especially the thriller, but that could just be a personal preference.
I didn't really liked how this game ended, but aside from that it was really good. The atmosphere hit me so hard, especially on those rainy days... aw man...
But going for 100% achievements is a pain in the ass, don't recommend to do this, let me rest in piece now...
It starts off extremely compelling, you're solving a mystery with good friends you've fallen out of touch with in the small town you grew up in. Unfortunately for these somewhat well-written characters, the developers had no idea what they were doing story-wise (character development was extremely lacking too). Save your money, don't even buy it on sale, your time is better spent elsewhere.
This game is...an experience, that's for sure.
Night in the Woods houses a captivating story filled with impeccably written characters, beautiful artwork and a strong OST.
If you can get past the unusual and outright bad pacing, abrupt ending, and the actual gameplay being very basic platforming most of the time (reminder this is a visual novel) then i would suggest picking this game up.
ok i have to mention again that the writing of the characters is insane. every character's personality, beliefs, etc are presented perfectly, it feels like they are actual human beings and not lines of text and code its TOO GOOD AAAAAAAAA
You don't exactly play Night in the Woods, you sit with the story of it, and be prepared to go to some dark and real places. There are minigames (including guitar hero, which I suck at so badly I got an achievement for sucking badly) to satisfy that competitive edge, and some minor acts of platform jumping.
The music is incredible, worth it for that alone - but the star is the writing and the narrative itself. It is a horror story, and a very knowing horror story, and if I say any more I will ruin the delicious surprise. A game for anyone who has felt confused and scared, struggled with mental health or grew up in a crap town.
I would recommend this game if you are looking for a narrative heavy game with a strong focus on individual characters relative to overarching plot elements (though the latter is still solid).
This game somehow got me invested in a part of US culture I have little to no experience with and only a kind of vague notion of. Specifically, I think it is the colors of the visuals and the music that are able to evoke so vividly that small-town atmosphere and the feelings of simplicity with a slight air of suffocation that characterize it. The vibe set by these aspects of the work alone make it a unique experience in the realm of video games specifically, where I've not seen much of this kind of atmosphere.
I don't necessarily feel that I connected with any of the characters on an incredibly deep level, even despite vaguely having similar experiences/ circumstances to some of them, though this did not hinder my enjoyment of the work in any way. Instead, I found each of the characters' distinctive personalities a joy to experience in their own right; the various dynamics found within character duos as well as when the entire group is together was always entertaining to experience.
I still struggle to verbalize exactly what about this game resonated with me specifically since I can't exactly point to one thing that gave me a really notable connection to it, but for some reason it stands out as special to me and so I would like to endorse it a testament to that feeling.
"the universe is uncaring, it is the people that do"- if you want to spend a night in the woods with your friends, this may not be the real thing, but it's pretty close. A lovely time.
Also banger soundtrack.
watched a jacksepticeye lets play of this game 7 years ago, forgot everything that happened, bought it and played through it myself, now i can say without a doubt this is one of the best and most fun story games i've ever played
This game is powerful. I play it every couple of years.
It is beautiful, story driven, and one of the most relatable games and stories i've ever experienced.
I've got over thirty hours on this game and have played through it about four times or so now plus all the extra little content things, and have gotten every single achievement. I highly recommend its a great game to sit down and play especially during the fall, the art style is phenomenal and the characters and plot are very fleshed out. I love these guys so much. However I will say the ending to the game feels a bit random, but other than that it was a great game 9/10
this game is very good. i like the story it tells, and it has a very unique vibe to it. overall, the game does a great job conveying complex emotions, and the characters are even better.
this game feels way too similar to real life and the only thing stopping me from having a breakdown over how closely it parallels my struggles and day-to-day experiences is how cute mae is
just beat this. phenomenal game. gonna be thinking about it for a bit. real funny too. a charming thing. i'll do gregg's route next!! love that guy. SO much
this is my favorite game of all time. the feelings that it captures through its art, dialogue, story, characters, and soundtrack are so visceral and beautiful. on the surface, it's nostalgic, silly, and relatable. but underneath that surface layer is something much, much deeper. as i grow older and revisit this game through the years, i find myself relating to it in entirely different ways. i can't recommend it enough
so it takes 32h only to own all achieves and about 3 reruns, welp-
seams i got nightmare eyes after all. great thing to play.
"At the end of everything, hold on to anything."
As a 21 year old college student, Night in the Woods hit me on such a personal level. Mae’s flaws made her deeply relatable, and every character’s story felt real and impactful. It’s not just a game, but it’s also an experience that stays with you. Truly remarkable, and easily one of my all-time favorites.
I did not love this game as much as a lot of people did: the actual day-to-day gameplay was monotonous to me, as were the platforming dream sequences. Developer Alec Holowka's abusive behavior is upsetting, and it's up to you if that's a dealbreaker for playing this game.
Still, overall I think this game is important enough to be worth the effort despite its flaws. Mae Borowski is one of my favorite adventure game protagonists of recent years, and I do think the characters and setting capture a zeitgeist of wayward millennials trying to find themselves in adulthood. The actual mystery plotline is lackluster but if you vibe with the characters then I'd recommend sticking with it until the end.
