The moment he went out, he saw a scrapped antique car.

As you get closer to the investigation, a line appears.

'It used to be a luxury, but now that all the roads have been swallowed up by the woods it's become useless scrap metal'.

From the appearance of this car, Mr. Zai roughly guessed that the game was set in the 1970s and 1980s.

In front of the vehicle, there is a doghouse and a whimpering black dog.

Mr. Zai walked over cautiously, fearing that something might happen to the dog.

He didn't forget that this was a horror game.

Although I have played some horror games before, they were all rubbish, not scary at all, and even made me laugh.

However, this dark forest has performed well so far, giving him the desire to continue playing.

As he approached the black dog, a line appeared quickly.

'My dog, he doesn't have long to live, I'd better relieve his pain...'

Is this going to kill the dog?

Mr. Zai looked around.

No weapons?

unarmed?

After wandering around for a while, he temporarily gave up the idea of ​​killing the dog because he had no weapons, and planned to go to the eastern forest to find oil first!

So the cub climbed over the fence and entered the forest.

After walking a few steps, I picked up an axe.

He was immediately surprised!

Finally got the weapon!

Now that the monster is here, I am not weak!

So Zai Zong took the ax and continued deeper, and then his way was blocked by a huge fallen tree trunk.

At the prompts of the game, he split the trunk with his axe.

New lines soon appeared below.

'These trees are growing so fast that I can't keep up with the cutting speed. '

These words slightly attracted Mr. Zai's attention.

"Could it be said that the tree regeneration ability in this game is also very strong?"

"Isn't the whole world trapped in the forest...?"

This game has become more and more fascinating to him. Even if it is just a trial version, he can still feel the quality.

Mr. Zai continued to go deeper.

He walked along the road and found animal carcasses that had turned into bones. He also found a moss-covered Route 50, and then an abandoned cabin.

These scenes began to make him feel uneasy, as if a dangerous moment would come at any time.

As he went deeper, the branches and leaves of the forest became denser.

Slowly, the weird sound effects gradually sounded, which made the fascinated Zai Zong couldn't help but sweat on his forehead and became nervous...

Whether a horror game is scary or not, sound effects play a major role!

This is always the case for the cub at this time.

This sound effect was like whispering in his ears, stirring up his emotions all the time.

Put him in a depressing atmosphere.

In the dark forest, the fog gradually began to rise.

Mr. Zai moved forward through the fog and entered a narrow stone path.

And at this moment, a group of crows suddenly appeared, along with the endless flapping of wings and constant screaming.

"Fuck!"

Zaizong yelled!

This sudden flock of crows caused a lot of noise in the quiet, strange and foggy forest, which frightened the highly concentrated Zai Zong to the point where he trembled and screamed loudly!

But fortunately, there was no danger! Near miss...

Mr. Zai immediately sped up and ran out of the stone path.

In an instant, the crows in the sky disappeared, as if on purpose.

The forest also returned to silence at this moment.

"I'm so nervous...Isn't this the prologue? A high-powered character appears in the novice level. Is there any mistake?"

There was no doubt that Zai was always frightened.

At this moment, he didn't want to play anymore.

Although it was a near miss just now, no matter who is so frightened, they will think about retreating.

It’s not like you have to play this game, so why bother with yourself...

Mr. Zai looked at the game screen, gritted his teeth, and continued playing.

"As a veteran gamer, it would be a shame and a shame if you don't even dare to play the prologue!"

"I never thought that a small top-down game could be so scary. Producer, you have the talent!"

Then he took courage and continued playing.

After a while, we came to a stone path again.

But this time, after being startled before, he half-closed his eyes and slowly stepped in, ready to meet the second high-energy!

but...

There is no such thing as high energy. The game prompts that you need to make a torch to get deep into it.

"There are also torches? This game also has a production function? With so much content packed into such a small game, has the developer grasped it?"

Although Mr. Zai said so, he still followed the instructions, made a torch, and then carefully stepped into the crevices of the rocks again.

This time, nothing happened.

But the murmuring sound in my ears gradually became louder at some point...

The environment also began to become darker and darker, and more and more depressing.

The towering trees were already in darkness, and waves of confusing fog filled the air.

On the ground, there are branches of trees, crisscrossing and stretching like blood vessels, which cannot be ignored.

In the small and dark stone crevices, only the red-orange light of the torches illuminated the surrounding roads, giving him a slight sense of security.

Zai always moved forward under pressure in this tense atmosphere with a racing heart.

"Why the hell do you make the game so depressing!? Damn it!"

He cursed like this, but his footsteps did not stop.

Soon, he finally walked out of this stone crevice. For some reason, even though nothing dangerous happened, he felt like he had escaped from death...

He even breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had experienced a big battle...

As he continued to move forward, he finally found a body on a strange tree full of intertwined branches!

Mr. Zai was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his eyes and stared again.

"This seems to be...a person?"

He was not sure, so he slowly approached, and because he was afraid of any high-energy scene, he walked slowly and tremblingly.

Soon, a line appeared below.

'In a few days he will be fully absorbed'

Mr. Zai:...?

What does it mean?

Trees eat people?

Will this human-looking corpse be absorbed by the trees?

"Damn it! Developer, you have such a big idea! Create such a large man-eating forest!?"

Mr. Zai started to feel a little chilly.

As a senior game player, he can shoot everything in first-person shooter games, kill everything in action games, dominate in role-playing games, and even win the first place with lightning drift in racing games. one.

But only horror games are too unpopular and rubbish for him to pay much attention to, and there aren't that many such games on the market.

So facing this man-eating forest, he felt sincerely uncomfortable.

In his gaming career, he has never been scared by so-called horror games because they are all rubbish.

It wasn't until I played this dark forest that I realized what fear feels like.

This is just the prologue of the trial version...

Who knows what the full version of this game will be like, and how scary it will be?

Mr. Zai looked at the human corpse in front of him and thought that this was enough, so he gritted his teeth and persisted no matter what!

So he continued to go deeper, wanting to see what else there was in this man-eating forest!

Zai always walked straight along the road, and after a while, it became brighter.

This is...the most densely forested area?

Soon, he found a man wearing a hat and bleeding, lying on the ground twitching.

"Fuck NPC!"

"Is there a side mission in the prologue?"

Without saying anything, Mr. Zai immediately stepped forward to talk, only to find that the NPC had passed out.

But as a player, if you don’t search and search, it would be a shame!

So Mr. Zai began to search for this NPC, and actually took out a 'big metal key' marked with the number 21 from him.

There are also notes about this key below.

'If there is an exit to the forest, this key must be the key to opening it'

Mr. Zai:...

"Did I get the key prop?"

Just when he was wondering, the game screen gradually went black.

A new cutscene is out.

This is a dark forest where the road cannot be seen clearly.

A man was squatting with his back turned, inspecting the fallen man.

There is another line below.

'I've never seen this unconscious man'

When Mr. Zai saw this, he immediately understood.

This is the follow-up story of the protagonist meeting this NPC! Shown in the form of cutscenes!

He didn't yell and continued reading.

In the game, the lines continue.

'He only had a key and a diary with him'

The next scene showed a somewhat bald man walking slowly, carrying an unconscious man in a hat.

'If he can sneak in, he must also know how to get out'

'He obviously won't do as I say'

'but...'

In the picture, there is a needle with some unknown liquid inside, which seems to be about to be injected into someone.

When Zai Zong saw this, he thought that the character he controlled was a doctor, and that there were some doors in the house that could not be opened. One of them was closed by a suspected monster or human. He also thought of the character in the opening animation of the game. Doctors seemed to be squeezed out.

When all these details were combined, he suddenly became excited.

Mudd!

Could it be that the protagonist I am controlling is a perverted doctor who is conducting human experiments?

Once this idea occurred, I couldn't stop it.

"Fuck! This game is amazing!"

This is Mr. Zai’s evaluation based on his own imagination.

In the game, the animation is not over yet, and what appears at this time is a pair of pupils.

And in the pupil, the needle tube was infinitely magnified.

Along with it, there is the last line, which belongs to the doctor.

'...that's not that difficult'
