Our take on Skinwalkers
Rather than presenting a fixed horror route, the game pairs an explorable forest with changing escape options and player-chosen endings. Its structure centers on deciding where to go and how a run concludes.
What is Skinwalkers?
After a car accident in Twin Peaks National Forest, an injured traveler must find a way out while creatures called Skinwalkers hunt in the dark.
The game combines horror survival with an open forest to explore and a nonlinear story shaped by player decisions. Forest props and escape routes change after each respawn. Multiple endings are available, including secret ones. Players can compare survival runs with friends, aiming to last longer and escape. The vendor says player suggestions for escape methods may be added in future updates; new routes and items are also described as update additions.
