Night In The Woods

College dropout Mae Borowski returns home to the crumbling former mining town of Possum Springs seeking to resume her aimless former life and reconnect with the friends she left behind. It was always just shapes to her and maybe that's why the familiar shapes gave her more comfort than the shapes at college. But things aren't the same. Home seems different now and her friends have grown and changed. Gregg. Bea. Even Aunt Mall Cop. Leaves are falling and the wind is growing colder. Strange things are happening as the light fades. And there's something in the woods. NIGHT IN THE WOODS is an adventure game focused on exploration, story, and character, featuring dozens of characters to meet and lots to do across a lush, vibrant world. After a successful Kickstarter it's being made by Infinite Fall, a teamup of Alec Holowka (Aquaria), Scott Benson (Late Night Work Club), and Bethany Hockenberry.
