How to play?

Start by checking your surroundings in the dark forest. Use arrow keys or WASD to move your character. Walk toward the railroad tracks and approach any mysterious creatures you see. Listen to the owl-headed guide and interact with him by pressing the action key. This is usually the E key or Space key. Explore buildings, but always look for clues before entering. If you find a new path, decide quickly. Some routes close if you wait too long. Stay away from strange shadows or odd sounds unless your guide says it's safe. Collect key items hidden in rooms. Check signs or marks on walls for extra hints. If you get lost, retrace your steps to a familiar spot and look for your guide again. Don't rush. Moving too fast can trigger hidden dangers. Keep an eye on story messages. They often reveal the safest route or warn you about traps. In Backwoods, paying attention to every detail is your best strategy for survival in this scary game.
