Woods of Nevia: Forest Survival

Survival in the Forest is an adventure survival simulator with role-playing elements, where you find yourself alone in the middle of a wild forest with only an axe as a tool. The game combines open-world exploration, battles with hostile creatures, shelter building, and a character development system through leveling up and skill upgrades. You will have to search for mushrooms and useful items to sustain your life, explore the forest in search of chests with supplies, chop down trees to build a house and build a fire. The game features a dynamic difficulty system where enemies gradually become stronger with each resurrection, requiring constant development of your character. When you level up, you choose one of three random improvements, strengthening your armor and skills. The experience points you earn allow you to take a worthy place in the leaderboard. The game features a system of quests from local residents with rewards for completion, cooking food in a pot, gardening, and boss battles. An important feature is the ability to save your progress at any time, as well as a strategic approach to battles — if the enemy is too strong, you can always retreat, restore your health, and return later.

How to play

Control your character with the keyboard and mouse on your computer or with the on-screen joysticks on your phone. The character moves relative to the camera angle. Click on objects to interact with or pick them up, and on enemies to select them as targets for attack. The character strikes automatically at the correct distance. Collect edible mushrooms to avoid starving to death. Useful items are picked up automatically when touched or clicked on nearby. Mushrooms are eaten automatically when picked up if the character is hungry, otherwise they are stored in the inventory. Keep an eye on the hunger indicator, as your health decreases when it is depleted. Health is restored when the character is full, but not while running or fighting. At night, it gets cold in the forest and the character starts to freeze. Build a fire or go into a house to warm up. If the character freezes completely, they lose health. In chests, you can find healing potions, edible supplies, unique items, and clothing. Everything you find can be used immediately or stored in your inventory. Chop down trees to get logs. With a log in your hands, the build and craft buttons become available. A campfire speeds up health regeneration, scares away enemies that are afraid of fire, and keeps you warm at night. Build a house where health regenerates even faster and enemies stop attacking, although enemies chasing you can run inside. Stack logs in the house to build improvements such as a bed to speed up time or a fireplace for heating. Throw wood on the fire to keep it burning by approaching it with a log. To cook food, place a pot on the fire with a log and a pot in your inventory. Hunt wild animals or run away from them. Gain experience for each action, level up, and improve your character's skills. Help the locals and receive rewards. If your character dies, you can revive them, losing some of your items. Enemies revive over time and return to their habitats, becoming stronger. The main thing is to stay well-fed for good health and regeneration.
