14 itemsAbout the Game
The Forest Prison is a FPS action puzzle that gets the player to engage in an immersive single-player campaign across 18 levels.
Based on a completely fictional story and characters, The Forest Prison tells the gripping story of a detainee who tries to pass
the tests imposed by the management of a prison from which no one has ever escaped alive.
The prison is located in a heavy wooded mountain area and has 18 sections. You can escape from a section using only 3 tools:
- a weapon that opens portals between predefined places
- a capsule that opens portals between any two points
- boulders that can be used to open doors
There are several methods by which you can complete a level and it is up to you to find the optimal path. Even if the rules are simple,
you must always be careful how you use the tools you have because it is very easy to get stuck in a certain area if you do not follow
the right steps.
It took us many months of hard work and dedication to create The Forest Prison. We had an exciting time developing The Forest Prison and
hope you will have the same fun playing it.
