Despite being a relatively short game, it’s packed with moments that have rattled around in my head for the last month. Other times, I’m convinced that I should just declare that it’s a slice-of-life game with a supernatural tint - whatever that means.īut my difficulty summing up Night in the Woods doesn’t mean I don’t have a lot to say about it. I want to say it’s a silly 2D platformer almost as much as I think it’s a soulful adventure game. Even after playing through the game twice, every attempt at defining it feels wrong. I’m not sure how to describe Night in the Woods.
