Night in the Woods Critic Reviews
View All (72 total)Night in the Woods captures the fears and anxieties of being a young adult with surprising clarity, but brings it into new and interesting territory thanks to its developers’ deep understanding of rural America’s economic hardships. Branching, well-written dialogue made me feel closer to Mae’s story as I helped build out her history and reignite friendships, encouraging a second playthrough to uncover the scenes (and even a few secrets) I know I missed.
A witty smalltown adventure with light puzzle-platforming elements that walks the line between nostalgia and nihilism.
A beautiful, heartfelt coming of age story that says something about life, and cracks a few jokes in the process.
A hugely impressive achievement in interactive storytelling, that tackles difficult subjects head-on but still manages to be life-affirming and relatable.
