update details
Firewood is an indie game focused on exploring the inner experiences of its main protagonist - an elderly gentleman using a cane to walk. She had left behind deep wounds when she died unexpectedly; at first the hero attempted to forget them but soon found himself forced back towards them, only for him to meet ghosts from his past who come in all sorts of scary forms!
Pixel format video game. Movement occurs only in right and left directions at each location, where interaction occurs with various objects besides those necessary for further passage. Reading various inscriptions helps add depth to its atmosphere of desperation that pervades here; moreover, our hero often switches back and forth between past events that affected him personally as he grows older - present moments being juxtaposed against his younger years - for added immersive effect.
After certain actions are taken, the situation dramatically alters, becoming horrifyingly frightening. Take notice of static television screens, boarded up windows and blood dripping down. Sometimes screamers emerge. In darkness rooms, your hero may take out a flashlight that dimly illuminates their space while searching for keys or codes on his path to keep moving forward.
