Pros
Pro Genuinely intimidating enemies that create a real sense of urgency
The enemies in this game are truly intimidating. Unlike other games where they act as mindless bots whom the player kills in droves, these ones will be hard to take down and trying to take one or two of them at once will usually prove fatal for the player.
Pro Randomized gameplay that not only keeps the player guessing, but adds a lot of replayability
The initial location of the player is randomized with every new game. This adds a certain level of replayability to the game since you don't know where you will be starting and what resources you will have available at the beginning.
Pro Great graphics allow the game to stand out above many other survival/horror titles
The graphics really stand out in The Forest, from the realistic looking foliage to the terrifying creatures in the forest. Remarkably the graphics are on par with any AAA game, which is quite a feat for an indie game.
