Our take on Forest 6174
The atmospheric presentation suggests a substantial horror journey, but the experience is completed in 20–25 minutes. Its main form of engagement is noticing environmental details and interpreting an ambiguous story, so players seeking extended exploration or varied mechanics may find its scope narrow.
What is Forest 6174?

Players control Danny, who is sent away from his daily routine and becomes lost in a forest where reality becomes difficult to understand.
