You read that right, folks! The wait is finally over. Scarlet Hood and the Wicked Wood is officially out on Steam! We put our heart and souls into this game over the past year and hope it can bring some entertainment your way. If you didn't catch it yet, we kicked off the celebration with the launch of the very special live-action trailer (above).
Story
Scarlet Hood and the Wicked Wood is the story of a young woman who finds herself tossed into the magical realm of Glome by a rogue tornado. It is there she must take up the mantle of the “Red Witch” and learn to wield her powerful Womping Stick to help a troupe of lost Munchkin safely navigate their way through the perilous domain of the Black Witch, LeFaba. The evil sorceress has no qualms about destroying any unwary intruders that trespass in The Wicked Wood. While Scarlet may be completely outmatched, she soon learns a recursion hex has her reliving the same day. Can she use her newfound powers and the knowledge gained from her previous lives to outwit LeFaba and lead the troupe to safety?
Gameplay
Many of you may be wondering what to expect this time around. First off, this game is heavily story driven. If you like visual novels, you'll enjoy this. If you’re a fan of puzzle-solving/adventure games you’ll feel right at home in “The Wicked Wood” as well. This game has more puzzles than you can shake a stick at. There are multiple paths to success featuring 10 unique endings to be unlocked. But just because this game more heavily focuses on puzzles doesn’t mean that it skimps on action; you’ll have to avoid the bumbling Dodobo, mischievous Monkeyta, and a relentless wolf to survive this forest.
