Escape the Cursed Forest: A Simple Non-Combat RPG

Embark on a unique RPG adventure as a skilled hunter trapped in a cursed forest. This isn't your typical combat-heavy game; instead, focus is on strategic exploration, resource management, and a dash of luck.

The Premise: You, the village's best hunter, arrive at a hunting tournament only to find the forest eerily deserted. The challenge? Escape the cursed woods, encountering strange phenomena and creatures along the way.

Gameplay Highlights:

• Minimalist Controls: Navigate the game using a maximum of three buttons, focusing on intuitive gameplay.
• Character Creation: While character customization is limited, you can reroll your stats to your heart's content before starting. Remember, these stats are crucial and cannot be checked in-game.
• Foria, the Quarter-Elf: This mysterious child-like guide secretly aids your escape using the forest's ancient spirits.
• Exploration: Uncover the secrets of the forest by exploring unexplored areas. The success of your exploration depends on your character's stats and the area's "fog depth."
• Creature Encounters (Optional Combat): While beasts roam the forest, combat is entirely optional. Maintain distance to attack with your bow and arrow, or use healing items to avoid conflict entirely. If cornered, choose between a risky retreat or using a "flash" ball for a guaranteed escape.
• Cloak System: Craft and layer cloaks using gathered materials to enhance your abilities. Note that these cloaks can wear down and become unusable.
• Skill Selection: Choose from a variety of randomly presented skills to enhance your character.
• Auto-Save: The game features an auto-save system, but for crucial saves, exit to the base menu before closing the app.

Key Features:

• Story-Driven Narrative: Experience a captivating story unfolding through visually rich text.
• Resource Management: Gather materials and use them to craft cloaks and other items.
• Strategic Gameplay: Success hinges on careful planning, resource management, and a bit of luck.
• Relaxing and Rewarding: Progress at your own pace, even if you don't play intensely.
