Carved by the Garden

Dear Sister,

I have seen the fantastical: beasts, monsters, the foliage itself--all as horrors beyond recognition. I fear you wouldn't believe me, but I have little need to explain. The forest is calling to you as it has called to me.

I’ll hope you join us soon


I played tested Carved by the Garden by Cassi Mothwin! It's a  folk-horror themed Wretched and Alone game about terrors and pains of a primal forest. You play as a character who, for the player's choice, must enter the forest each day and survive the horror within as it invites you deeper and deeper inside.

This game plays out like a standard W&A except it is much easier to remove all 8 tokens than a regular game. But don’t be fooled into thinking that is a happy ending either! 

My character embraced the horrors pretty early on, and it significantly changed how I interacted with the elements of the game, but the game leaves it completely up to interpretation how you want your characters to react. 

The game will be kickstarting soon which you can find Here

But in the mean time there is a demo which you can find Here

And you can find my playthrough Here
