[b]Heart of the Forest[/b] интерактивный психологический фильм ужасов, действие которого разворачивается в таинственном Черном лесу. Группа студентов отправляется в поход и сталкивается с мстительным духом, заточенным в глубине леса. Героям предстоит бороться за выживание, сталкиваясь с собственными страхами и тёмными тайнами прошлого https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3784725836 [b]Плюсы[/b] * Визуальный стиль и атмосфера на контрасте: лес красивый и спокойный, но внутри не отпускает ощущение, что что-то здесь не так * Звуковое сопровождение отлично помогает погрузиться в историю, нагнетая напряжение * Несколько концовок [b]Минусы[/b] * Не хватает интерактивности: выборы появляются лишь изредка, и большую часть времени мы просто смотрим фильм, а не принимаем решения * Затянутое вступление и некоторые сцены кажутся искусственно растянутыми * Дерево решений есть, но оно неудобное. После прохождения можно посмотреть пропущенные ветки, но чтобы переиграть конкретный момент, всё равно приходится перезапускать игру с самого начала. Хорошо что хоть можно пропускать ролики пройденных моментов, но к сожалению и тут не все * Актёрская игра пойдёт для инди проекта, но всё же оставляет желать лучшего: в некоторые моменты персонажи либо переигрывают, либо читают реплики без эмоций * Нет русской озвучки https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3785017820 [b]Вердикт[/b] Инди-фильм с небольшими интерактивными вставками. У него есть своя атмосфера, неплохой саундтрек и красивые виды, но сценарий, актёрская игра и реализация выборов оставляют желать лучшего. На один вечер, когда хочется просто посмотреть фильм, он может зайти, но на большее рассчитывать не стоит

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Ce jeu est une pépite tellement de choix possible une durée de vie casi infinie j'ai passé un super moment avec des rebondissement vraiment rebondissant un des meilleurs fmv de l'année pour moi et c'est sans parler du jeu des acteurs qui est incroyable vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermer !
Boring slog to get through. The scenes drag on, and many moments that seem important end up meaninglessly going nowhere. The story is poorly written, and the choices barely matter. It's a shame because I was completely on board with the premise, and I genuinely liked the cast and characters. It's also well shot. Unfortunately, the story just gets more nonsensical as it goes. Characters experience major events only to be perfectly fine in the next scene with little or no explanation. It's inconsistent, but above all, it's just boring. And that's coming from someone who loves "choose your own adventure" FMV games. Even the better moments are stretched out so much that they lose their impact. I really wanted to enjoy this, and it does have a few bright spots, but overall I can't recommend it. If you're new to the genre, start with Late Shift, which is still one of the best all-around FMV games. For paranormal horror, try Simulacra 2. If cheesy sci-fi horror is more your thing, check out Dead Reset. Or, if you want something much deeper and don't mind a bigger time commitment, play Not For Broadcast. Save this game for last, and only if you've already played the better FMV titles.
Dernier né des productions proposées par Wales Interactives, [i]Heart of the Forest[/i] nous plonge dans une forêt germanique hantée par une présence malveillante dans laquelle un groupe de randonneurs va devoir survivre. J'avoue ne pas avoir été emballée par le début de l'expérience : les personnages me semblaient peu charismatiques et l'intrigue confuse et lente à démarrer. Toutefois, [i]Heart of the Forest[/i] finit par monter en puissance passé la première demi-heure et à faire son effet. L'ambiance horrifique se révèle réellement prenante une fois la menace clairement identifiée. Les personnages gagnent en épaisseur pour certains d'entre eux et leurs personnalité et motivations apparaissent tout de suite plus claires et cohérentes. Sans être le meilleur titre du catalogue de Wales Interactives, [i]Heart of the Forest[/i] s'avère une aventure distrayante et qui parvient à remplir son contrat.
Логика вышла из чата. Сценарий писал 5 летний ребенок. Ооооооооооооооооооооооочень тупой сюжет, выбор ни на что не влияет, иллюзия выбора. Кусок кала, не покупайте.
If you have no interest in a gay love story then avoid this entirely because you will not like it at all. Steam really needs a middle ground option instead of forcing a simple yes or no recommend because this one lands right in the middle and it is frustrating that there is no proper way to reflect that. I am going to be generous and say yes but only with serious caveats since the main story for this FMV is decent with good acting and themes that hold up reasonably well. What really annoys me is how the Steam page description should have been far more honest. You play as two gay couples one lesbian pair and one male couple plus their one straight friend and let us be real this is a gay love story with a token straight man along for the ride. There is nothing wrong with that in itself but it is a niche theme and some people simply have no interest in these subjects in a movie game. The biggest failing is the complete lack of any clear signal about this rainbow focus so not everyone will like it and they should have been much more upfront about the subject matter instead of leaving buyers to find out after purchase. Other than that particular problem the rest is fairly decent.
1. The production quality is very high. 2. Please do yourself a favor and don't watch this pile of ****. My wife and I watched it together, it takes about 2.4 hours and it's the most boring movie we have ever witnessed! - Simon touches everything! - All speak very basic English like "How are you?" and "Should we go in this cave?" (NO YOU SHOULDN'T!) - Again: The story is ultra super boring! - The movie is slooooooooooooooow like hell. Everything draaaaaaaaaags into eternity! - There is NOT ONE SINGLE conversation in this movie like: "Oh, what? A monster touched you?" "Yes, it was right back there" "Oh then maybe we shouldn't go there again" - you know - just normal conversation between human beings. Don't say I didn't warn you. The decision tree was cool at the end - My wife and I were relieved that with some decisions the movie was shorter than it could be - we skipped some large chunks with our decisions, phew!
I generally love FMV games, and the trailer made this one look very promising. However, Heart is incredibly slow and tedious, and the characters are dull and boring. By the end I honestly didn't care if anyone lived or died, I just wanted the game over so I wouldn't have the play it any more. Sections of it were either repetitive or featured endless ambling about the forest. For a game I completed in under 3 hrs, it felt incredibly drawn out There is one scene that made me want to scream at the screen. Three of the characters decide to go searching and agree they'd better stay together for safety... Seconds later, they just wander apart like idiots. On the positive side, I guess the cinematography of the forest was good.
Not bad interactive cinema, I bought it when it was on sale, so that's enough for 1-2 days of gameplay. But I wish it was more immersive
Очень шаблонно и очень грустно
