Down to the Woods is a point and click adventure where you take control of a teddy bear, either Belle or Bear, and embark on a journey through a series of forest mazes as you try to help your friends. The controls are simple and the story is suitable for younger children.
Unique game play elements include sign posts that use sign language, and butterfly companions which you can use to handle obstacles. The game features randomly generated areas with an array of wildlife hidden in the forest, and original music layered on Australian bird song.
The narrative is portrayed with a story book feel and the demo displays the introduction as single frames. Once complete, Down to the Woods will feature full motion video cut scenes to wrap the story together.
Game play includes maze navigation, “power up” clothing items that are of practical use in the maze, and a side scrolling underground area. Puzzles are treated organically and can be easily solved with hints provided by your companions, and by use of the objective system which may be disabled at any time.
“The most flattering comment I’ve received so far was from a friends’ children, two young girls who described the game as ‘adorable’, that absolutely made my day!” said Emmanuel, creator of the game.
