first 30 ish minutes survived first night hiding and stuff and met the wolfman, I didn’t like his tone and thinking he would just shoot me with his AK and insta kill me I hit him for fun and found out he fights in melee, he dodged into a bear trap and I clubbed him to death, I searched it up and it says I can still beat the game but didn’t give good answer, would I be making the game more difficult and janking up the story by not letting him live I’m interesting in the games story and am willing to restart if killing the wolf man butchers the game

Tbh the ending sucked, all of that just for him to go to bed it was too anti climactic

Hello, I have posted a lot here in the past few days and wanted to talk about the ending. So basically the road right before the epilogue leads straight to the tree that hosts the "being" and then you burn it all down to end the madness. I fucking loved this game and it's easily in my top 10 of all time. Im probably going to watch the Pyrocynical video about the game & some other ones two. This game & the community has been a fun time. I want to hear your opinion on this ending and maybe give me some more knowledge on the ending.

I just started today and I’m on chapter 1 day 3-4 I just met this trader guy. I also just unlocked as my first skill ‘eagle eye’. Do any of you have tips for me?

Hey, again. I'm the guy that wanted more media like Darkwood, and I beat the game last night (fucking incredible). I want to get the secret ending but I don't want to accidentally stumble upon a spoiler for the ending. If you give the instructions on how to get the secret ending or what to do, it would be great.

Hey guys, I posted here yesterday (trying to find the doctor's house). I have now clocked in almost t hours in the game since last night and I'm a quarter of the way through Part 2. I want to consume more media like Darkwood since it is fucking peak. I will take suggestions of movies, shows, video games, and books. Anything similar would be amazing.

Darkwood Multiplayer Mod – Playtest & Discord Server

Hey everyone!

For the past several months, I've been developing a multiplayer mod for Darkwood, and it's finally reached a playable state. While it's still actively being developed and there are bugs and unfinished features, players can already explore the woods together, survive nights, and experience Darkwood in co-op.

Current Features

• Multiplayer support for multiple players
• Shared world progression
• Item interactions and exploration together
• Active development with frequent fixes and improvements

What to Expect

This is not a finished product yet. There are still bugs, desyncs, and features that need polishing. That's why I'm opening the project to the community—to gather feedback, bug reports, and ideas from fellow Darkwood fans.

Join the Discord

If you'd like to follow development, participate in testing, report bugs, or simply hang out with other players, join our Discord server:

https://discord.gg/7NUDu9Jer8

I never expected for this to even remoteley get to this point, so I decided to try making it even better with the help of the community. If you're interested in helping shape the project, I'd love to have you aboard.

See you in the woods. 🌲

Hello, question: has anyone else had this happen? I got the chest key from the cottage in Silent Forest, and it won't open the chest in the shed at the hideout. That is the correct key, right? It shows up under "Keys" in the journal, but when interacting with the chest, it still says key required. Am I dumb or is this a bug lol

He notado que en la bases de darkwood cada cierto tiempo cumplido se ingesta de una bichos por montones, no son cucarachas que aparecen en la noche

Son más como una pila de ellos que dura demasiado y aún no se cómo arreglarlo si es que existe solución

Alguien sabe que es?

Hello again!

Just wondering if anyone has any specific lore on the embryos you can find.

Some people say the egg sac is from the bugs usually nearby. One source claimed it was the original Banshee??!

Obviously, Darkwood 2 was (or was it?) never planned, but maybe the embryos are related to the entity branching out to the secondary location in game 2?

What's your thoughts :)

I've played a few times for a few hours each time over some years.

I don't really know what I'm supposed to be doing. The only weapon I've found is made, the wood with nails. I don't know what I should be looting, some things are worth something but not much. There's very little room in my inventory considering all the loot. There is very little health items, poison and enemies everywhere, I can't find any progression path.

I'm not sure whether to start with indiegogo extras or not. I've tried both. In the indiegogo extras version I couldn't find any new place to go, I seem to reach the game boundaries or locked doors on all sides. I can't afford anything useful from the trader who comes to your house. There's an area with way too many dogs.

I'm not sure if there is a win condition after some time, or a game over condition after some time.

I'm not really scared to play, it is really creepy but that's not my issue, I'm just frustrated I have no idea what I should be doing or not.

I want to like the game and play through it, but I literally have no idea what to do. Does the game ever tell you anything?

I'd rather not look up a guide. I can probably beat the game with a guide, but it's obviously intended to be explored, but I haven't the foggiest idea how to approach the game without a guide. If I don't ask I'll end up forgetting about it again for a few years.

So I guess I'm asking for some guidance and tips to get me started on understanding at least some of my frustrations and maybe a nudge or 4 in the right direction.

I have a shovel like everyones recommend it, but it's too slow for me, I can't hit almost nothing.

I was in the old woods when decided to not run from the dogs. It's quite easy to understand how the move, they basically run and jump on you. All you have to do is give a little step to the or to the left, don't dodge with Ctrl because you are only going back, and stay in his attack range. Go right and bet them, go left and beat them.

Minor spoilers?

A quick Google tells us that when the stranger sees his reflection it is one of two things:

1. a manifestation of his guilt for his past actions as an outsider.

2)he isn't him. He is reborn from the true stranger who died in the savage attack

So I'm wondering if there's any way to find more information on the things he specifically did to feel guilty.
