"Red Forest" is a First-Person horror watching game. Chernobyl. Ukraine's red Forest area is in the most irradiated Zone after the devastating 26.04.1986 SuperGAU. Even today, large Parts of The Restricted area are still in the world and are among the most irradiated areas in the World. In Forests, biodiversity increased Measurably after the Nuclear Disaster. No Wonder rumors of terrifying Mutations arose. In "Red Forest," in a limited Wooded Area, we are Tasked with succumring to the Rake, a humanoid Mutation that can attack and kill Humans. For this we should equip ourselves with the Right Utensils at the beginning of the game in the starting Building, which unfortunately does not explain the Game at all. In particular, of course, a Firearm Is important, along with Ammunition. However, we should also buy a Tablet to have a Card and a thermal imaging tracker. Otherwise, the Search could become quite tiresome. Hours we can wander through the Forest Areas without getting anything in front of the Flint. The Rake is also quite shy. He flees from the Car we can drive around with, for Example. The Atmosphere has a Successful effect. The dark, foggy Area often gives you a glimpse of things in the Distance, which are then only the Shadow of a Bush. If the Tracker fails, it can also only be a stray Fox. The Soundscape Skillfully carries the Feeling of Loneliness. The Problem, however, is the Gameplay itself. Apart From technical Weaknesses, the Grass grows through the Car Oden or the same does not have a Handbrake, so it likes to roll off when you get off. You could still look past that. But when things don't work, Sensors don't get put up. Or even if there is no Shortcut to the Items. We have our Tracker in Operation, the Rake is in front of us and we have to first use the Mouse Wheel through Flashlight, Map, sensors ... Change until we finally hold a Weapon in Our hands. Meanwhile, the Monster has long since killed us and the three-quarter-hour Search was in vain. Too many Weaknesses, too many technical Problems, prevent the Very good concept from really being recommended.
