About the Game

Build your defenses with plants:

Use the seeds at your disposal to grow murderous plants and a sentient fungal network to defend your home.


Fight battles against settlers:

Your corner of the forest has long been coveted. Villagers and lumberjacks are soon venturing closer and closer menacingly. It is only a matter of time until they come back with scarier invaders.

Collect resources:

In dire times, you will need to turn to unordinary methods. Blood and souls of your enemies, anything will do to feed the hungry gods of the forest.

Discover powerful witchcraft:

There is might to be found in a variety of ancient arts. Carving hexes, grafting plants, extracting resins, all manners of skills will be needed to save yourself.
