Plot: A strange bipedal creature resembling a deer begins appearing in the forest. Soon after, four children disappear, and the investigation yields no results, leading to the forest being closed to the public. The player is given 99 nights to uncover the forest's mystery and save the children.
Inspiration: The developers claim the game is based on real events. The main inspiration is considered to be the true story of four children who survived 40 days in the Colombian Amazon after a plane crash in 2023. The influence of the horror game The Forest (a survival game about forests with mutants) is also evident.

The fire is your life: It's your main source of warmth and protection. During the day, it's your guide. At night, it's the only thing that keeps the Deer at bay. If the fire goes out, you'll stop regenerating health, and the monsters will begin hunting.
Resources: During the day, you need to chop down trees, collect scrap metal, and hunt for food (rabbits, fish). Wood is needed for the fire, metal is needed to upgrade the workbench and craft, and food is needed to avoid starvation.
Hunger: Keep an eye on your satiety meter. Running uses a lot of energy, so you won't get far without food.
Night: Stay by the fire as darkness falls. With each passing night, enemies (wolves, cultists, and the Stag himself) become more aggressive and numerous.
Crafting Bench: Upgrade this first. The higher the level, the better the recipes available: map, compass, traps, weapons, and ammunition.
Fur Trader: Arrives on Day 2. Trade rabbit and wolf pelts for axes, armor, and upgrades.

Koala Kid (Kid in a Koala Hat): He is the most traumatized child and the last to be found. He has black eyes with white dots, pale yellow skin, and a lost look. He wears a black shirt, skirt, and panda slippers. Interestingly, his room was completely gray, but at camp, he pitches a purple tent. He is 155 cm tall.

Headwear: Wears a fluffy brown fur hat similar to a ushanka.
· Glasses: Always wears oval blue sunglasses that cover almost all of his eyes.
Clothing: He wears a brown leather shirt with a shoulder pad and a torn sleeve on the other. He wears a brown fur coat with a white collar over it. He completes the look with a pair of black pants.
· Hairstyle: Light (blond) hair peeks out from under the hat.
· Seasonal and Holiday Variations: During the Winter update, he wore a long-sleeved shirt, and on Halloween, he wore a deer pelt as a hat.

(his height is 190 cm)

🧠 Character and behavior

Unlike the hostile cultists, this character is completely harmless.

· Friendliness: He is purely focused on trade, displays no aggression, and cannot be attacked. On the contrary, players eagerly await his arrival.
· Regularity: He first appears on the 2nd day right next to the fire, and then visits approximately every 3-4 days, but always leaves at nightfall.
· Individual approach: Its trading takes place individually for each player, so you can always exchange your skins.

Squid Kid: The third child. He wears a striped black and white shirt and a hat with a yellow kraken (squid). He is 150 cm tall.

Kraken Kid: She's a girl, the second child. She wears a blue vest and a hat with a kraken on it. Compared to Koala Kid, she looks less scared. She's 146 cm tall.

Dino Kid: He's usually the first one found. He has yellow skin, a white shirt, blue jeans, and a red dinosaur hat with spikes. He looks like he's been crying, but he seems the least injured of the others. He's 132 cm (5'3") tall.

Appearance: This bipedal creature has a huge head, disproportionately large for its body (it stands 4 meters tall), and a wide-open mouth filled with sharp teeth. Its eyes are its primary visual weapons: usually pale and empty, they glow bright red when hungry, signaling mortal danger. It can move on both two legs and all fours, achieving great speed in pursuit. Its long forelimbs end in four sharp claws, and its hooves and horns fade from brown to black, creating a rotting appearance.
Personality and Behavior: The Deer is a ruthless predator that appears at night and single-mindedly pursues the player. It is invulnerable to conventional weapons, but can be temporarily blinded by a flashlight, though it recovers faster each time. On certain nights, it enters a "hungry" state, becoming even faster and more aggressive.

· Common Cultist (Melee): The most common variety. Wears old brown clothes, a gray-brown shirt, and a dark, rough jacket. Armed with old axes, spears, or maces (he stands 185 cm tall).
