Our take on Among Trees
The game centers on a contained wilderness routine, trading broader action and social systems for cabin growth, food production, exploration, and animal companionship. Zen mode removes animal danger, but also removes the pressure created by those encounters.
What is Among Trees?
Among Trees is a wilderness survival game set in a colorful world of forests and caves.
Players gather materials, make tools, and expand a small cabin with rooms that introduce activities such as cooking, gardening, crafting, and sewing. Food can be obtained by fishing, growing plants in a greenhouse, and preparing meals; plants may be eaten raw or used in stews with greater nutritional value. Dangerous animals occupy some woodland areas, while a Zen mode removes those threats. A fox can also be adopted, fed, petted, and trained to help locate loot.
